Democrats, John Brown on Line-1

We don't begrudge anyone with an unplanned pregnancy who is unsure what to do. We don't even begrudge anyone who choses abortion. It's a tough thing for a career-track woman to have to put all that aside, or for a single young woman to go it alone.

Moral decisions are never easy. Anyone whose asked a doctor to withdraw their mother's respirator knows this. 

This blog favors abolition. We recognize that most Americans do not agree with us.

Here's what Democrats favor:

If a mother is in labor, I can tell you exactly what would happen. The infant would be delivered. The infant would be kept comfortable. The infant would be resuscitated if that’s what the mother and the family desired, and then a discussion would ensue between the physicians and the mother

That's legal in New York State now.  New York's thug governor is proud of himself. Just look at that smirk.

Breitbart has bad news for Abortionists:

A Harvard Center for American Political Studies (CAPS)/Harris Poll revealed that only eight percent of Americans say abortion should be permitted until the third trimester of pregnancy. Additionally, only six percent say abortion should be allowed “up until the birth of the child.”

This blog favors abolition. Democrats favor tax-payer funded abortions for minors throughout all nine months of pregnancy and even birth.

Whose the extremist now? 

Why even bother Resuscitating?

So with the pair of alternate history short stories we're working on about an indy mid-century Hawaii we've done a lot of research on the islands. 

Indy Hawaii was pretty much what you've heard about and seen in the movies, an island group full of free-wheeling Polynesians welcoming visitors with open arms.

[and legs-Ed]

The islands truly were a tropical paradise where the Western notion of work was unknown and unnecessary.

The Hawaiians had some strange customs, some abhorrent customs, one of them being infanticide. It was quite common for any number of reasons, religious, superstition, or just plain laziness.

We bring this up becuase of the recent defeat of the senate's 'born alive' bill.

Decent folk assume protecting babies, keeping them alive if you will, is natural to the human condition. But it's not.

Just ask Virginia governor Ralph Northam:

If a mother is in labor…the infant would be delivered. The infant would be kept comfortable. The infant would be resuscitated if that’s what the mother and the family desired, and then a discussion would ensue between the physicians and mother.
