Self-defense bill criticized

David Baker, an assistant chief in the Omaha Police Department, said the bill, if passed, could incite violence at abortion clinics.

Legislative Bill 232 would change state law to state that a person could use deadly force to protect an unborn child.

Omaha Sen. Brenda Council said the bill would have allowed an anti-abortion activist in Kansas to successfully claim that he shot and killed an abortion provider, Dr. George Tiller, in self-defense in 2009.

Alan Peterson of American Civil Liberties Union Nebraska said some people in the anti-abortion movement believe something “not lawful” occurs during every abortion. Therefore, he said, the bill could allow assailants to justify attacks on clinic workers and even women seeking an abortion, in the name of protecting the unborn fetus.

1. That includes deadly force against the mother, no doubt.

9. Or kidnap, torture, imprisonment. Got to SAVE THE ZYGOTE after all!

Unless it's a fur-ih-nuhr "anchor" baby.

The Nebraska Governor also seeks to DENY prenatal care to any pregnant woman who cannot verify her legal residency. Very "pro-life' of him dontcha think?

Oh yeah. He only cares about WHITE ZYGOTES and the WHITE FETUSES.

4. This post just put so many violent thoughts in my head...

...and I can't post a single one of them because it will get pulled by the mods.


But damn, the visceral reaction to this kind of shit makes wish that... certain events... of national focus... that have occurred since the start of the year... happened to entirely the wrong people.

:grr:

20. ever notice they accus us of things they themselves do?

they accuse unions of bussing in supporters in Wis. while american's for prosperity ships in wingers

they say health care reform has death panels while private corporate run health care has had them for decades

so whenever they accuse the dems and libs of something I look for evidence they already did it themselves.
