Missouri the first in the nation to end all abortions
- Thread starter WHO IS SERAFIN
- Start date
Here's a question that comes to mind: Illinois next door has said abortion shall remain legal in a post-Roe America; how far do you think Missouri will go to enforce its' ban - just to the state line or beyond? Will they respect the U.S. Constitution's Full Faith & Credit Clause and respect Illinois's position on abortion or will Missouri officials try to stop women from going there to procure abortions if they so choose?
Well it’s murder of a person and if you live in a state and decide to murder in another you need to be prosecuted. Only exceptions are what the left likes to throw at people when this becomes a debate but really has no interest in common ground and that’s rape, incest, personal danger of the mothers health.
Okay, what happens if Illinois (to use the example above) refuses to honor extradition requests from Missouri in that regard?
What next?
That’s a good question! I think this could be the beginning of the splitting of a nation.
The reason I asked that question is because that was one of the predicate causes of the Civil War: the refusal by Northern States to enforce (and actively resist enforcement of) the 1850 Fugitive Slave Act.
Abortion is that kind of an issue.
It’s hilarious it’s a similar issue when one is about actively keeping slaves and the modern issue is about letting a life live and it’s not something a mother can just kill. It’s a scary crossover.
Its' relevant in this regard, Serafin: in the former, you had states actively refuse to assist and enforce the Fugitive Slave Act. In the example I spoke of earlier, you could very well states refuse to follow the law and the Constitution w/regards to other states on the issue of abortion.
Yes, it is scary for this reason: for the Constitution and the laws passed under it to have any power, they must be uniformly be enforced and recognized between states. When states either refuse to do so for either, that can lead to a country cracking apart at the seams.
If stopping the murder of a child and make no mistake this is all about the right to murder a human life however you want to justify it. And it brings us to actively going to the route of separation then so be it, history will show we held the moral high ground.
So did Southern segregationists at the beginning of the medern Civils Rights movement and look how that went....It's over, Webnakin! He has the moral high ground!
You hear that, @WHO IS SERAFIN? You underestimate their power! 
Well unless everyday pro life Americans are going to start hunting parties in their neighborhood it will stay that way.
Ain’t it funny all of a sudden the left can now distinguish between a man pretending to be a woman and a real woman for this issue. It’s pretty amazing!
I'm not surprised with my home state, Missouri trigger banning it. Over the years I've heard a lot of strangers and people I've met slam it.
It seems worse on the internet than it is in real life. You don't see many conservatives and liberals having political arguments when you're out and about. We coexist for the most part.As a non-American, I have no idea why Americans are so divided on leftists and rightists, and why can't they agree on (pretty much?) anything. I do apologize.
Okay, but why such strong polarization, like the opposite sides of a magnet? Is there anything both sides can agree on, some common ground, or is it just the mutual 'we're right, you're wrong' back and forth accusations with neither side at least trying to see the other one's viewpoint?

People are too competitive in nature. They just want their side to win.
