A Maricopa County Superior Court judge has granted a preliminary injunction against new state laws that place restrictions on abortion. Although the decision has been embraced by state Democrats, the Republican co-sponsor of both bills said it's another case of courts infringing on the territory of the Legislature.
Sen. Jack Harper, a Republican from Surprise, said it surprised him that the state court "waded into a political issue.

The pro-life movement has enjoyed remarkable success in recent years, seeing the passage of numerous laws in state legislatures to limit abortion and protect women and children from abuse by the country's largest and most unscrupulous abortion provider, Planned Parenthood (PP). In 2011 alone, 83 pro-life initiatives became law. Particularly noteworthy are new fetal pain laws in five states that ban most abortions after 20 weeks, when it is universally agreed that the fully formed baby can feel the horrific pain of the procedure (although many experts agree that the fetus feels pain much earlier). Planned Parenthood opposed these humane laws.
Laws passed to inform women and protect women and children and Planned Parenthood's response include:
-
... a result would not return the matter of abortion to the states. The Fourteenth Amendment, properly ... not an advocate for frequent changes in laws and constitutions. But laws and institutions must ...

WASHINGTON -- National anti-abortion leaders Wednesday put finishing touches on a letter to be sent to all members of Congress urging suspension of more than $300 million in federal funding of Planned Parenthood until a massive criminal case brought in Kansas against the abortion rights organization is settled. That launches an attack against the nation's largest purveyor of "reproductive health care" -- including abortions.
On Oct. 16, District Judge James F. Vano in suburban Kansas City spent eight hours reviewing a 107-count grand jury indictment against Planned Parenthood of Kansas and Mid-Missouri Inc. and decided there was "probable cause" to proceed. Allegations of unlawful late-term abortions and other abortion-connected crimes were brought by Johnson County District Attorney Ph...

The main reason for legal abortion and other forms of birth control is women's rights, an idea which has not had smooth sailing. The April 10 edition of The New York Times Magazine features the article, "The Evolution of a Justice," written by Linda Greenhouse, the Supreme Court reporter for the Times. Greenhouse believes that the debate over legal abortion has been with us for so long, and for every minute of that time in high profile of public discourse, that it is "tempting to assume that the middle-aged men who voted in 1973 to overturn state abortion laws thought they were striking a blow for women's equality.
This is incorrect. Justice Harry A Blackmun, on the U.S. Supreme Court for 24 years, wrote the opinion in Roe vs. [Wade]. He believed for decades that the constitutional ...

OKLAHOMA CITY - Two new laws being challenged in the Oklahoma courts would give the state some of the strictest abortion laws in the country by forcing women to answer questions about race and their relationships, and to listen to a doctor talk them through an ultrasound.
Legal challenges to the laws are in their early stages, but observers say cases could mirror that of the partial-birth abortion debate, which went through Nebraska courts and was struck down by the U.S. Supreme Court before Congress made it a federal law that was upheld in 2007.

An abortion clinic doctor, who is protected by the laws of his state and country, is killed for being a "baby butcher" by a pro- lifer who believes he is also doing mankind a good deed. I would like to know why the pro-lifers aren't targeting the people who need to be targeted in this sad state of affairs: the human animal. What happened to personal responsibility in taking steps to ensure that a baby that isn't wanted isn't created in the first place? Why aren't pro-lifers taking their message to the ones who need it - all boys and girls and men and women of child-bearing age who want to have sex but don't want the consequences of children? It's called birth control, and if that is also considered murder by these folks, then preach abstinence. Murdering one abortionist doctor...
