Prenatal Protection

A few days have past since this became news:

The head of the National Organization for Women’s Morris County chapter is opposing a double-murder charge in the Laci Peterson case, saying it could provide ammunition to the pro-life lobby.

“If this is murder, well, then any time a late-term fetus is aborted, they could call it murder,” Morris County NOW President Mavra Stark said on Saturday.

Can it be said any more clearly? NOW supports the murder/abortion of any baby as long as it is completed before the baby leaves the birth canal.

Thank goodness California has a prenatal protection law. Texas and 11 other states do not have any type of law at present protecting the unborn. As Scott Wilder said on his radio show this week, “In Texas, you can punch a pregnant woman in the stomach, kill her unborn child, and there is no criminal or civil recourse under Texas law.”

There is bill (HB 246) in the Texas House that will grant prenatal protection. Call or write your Representative today to urge them to pass this bill. The bill still allows for legal abortions, as allowed under Roe v. Wade.

Any pro-choice people care to attempt to defend NOW’s position?

I have a question. I am doing a debate for a class on against abortion. I found this story about a girl in Texas and read it and it said there is a Prenatal Protection Law, and I am trying to find out what it is exactly and what states have it. I found out 28 states have it, 15 of them extend protection, and 38 states parents can sue for the wongful death of an unborn child. Can you help me find information? I am also trying to find some statistics as to how many abortions are done a year in specific age groups. I have some from 93-95 but I would like something more current.

I appreciate it.

Thanks

Jenn
