:doh:
Declaring by federal law that life begins at conception would "deal with" state-level pro-abortion laws in one fell swoop. Human beings would have legal protection per federal law at conception.
States would then be charged with enforcing this law and protecting the liberty of all humans, from conception on.
:doh: The federal role is to declare that life begins at conception, thereby recognizing legal rights of the unborn from conception on. The states have the AUTHORITY to enforce anti-abortion laws that would protect these federally recognized rights of the unborn.
Again, because it is too complicated for you apparently:
- Roe v. Wade should be repealed.
- federal law should declare that life begins at conception.
- states should regulate the enforcement of this law, as they do other laws against violence.
:duh:
Poor Ralphie, he doesn't even understand the upside down world of his candidate.
Authority isn't requirement.
In Ron Paul's world the respective states would have the "authority" (power) to legalize prostitution, but they wouldn't be "required" to do so.
In Ron Paul's world the respective states would have the "authority" (power) to marry queers and push recreational drugs, but they wouldn't be "required" to.
In Ron Paul's world respective states would have the "authority" (power) to make abortion illegal, but they wouldn't be "required" to do so.
Now be a good little Libertarian and go smoke a joint, maybe you'll think clearer then.
