Major Victory for Life

PBA Ban Upheld by SCOTUS
The U.S. Supreme Court upheld a law that makes it a crime to perform “partial birth” abortions, allowing the first nationwide ban on a procedure as two justices named by President George W. Bush tipped the balance.

The justices, voting 5-4, said the 2003 Partial Birth Abortion Ban Act is constitutional even though it lacks an exception for cases posing a risk to the mother’s health. The court also rejected claims that the law is so vaguely worded it would force doctors to forgo a commonly used, constitutionally protected abortion technique for fear of prosecution.

This is a great victory for those of us who believe in protecting innocent human life at all all stages of development. It’s about time our country ended the barbaric practice of sucking an unborn child’s brains from it’s skull.
