Unborn Victims Bill Passes The House

From Yahoo News:

The House voted Thursday to subject assailants who injure or kill a pregnant woman and her fetus to two separate crimes. The bill would for the first time under federal law give victim's rights to a fetus.

The bill, championed by conservative groups, drew opposition from others concerned that conferring new rights on the fetus would undermine abortion rights.


The pro-choice crowd is afraid of this bill, and should be. If Congress is going to say that its a crime for a murderer to kill an unborn child its only a small step to saying that its a crime for a doctor or mother to do so.

Its just nice to see somebody standing up for the rights of unborn babies for a change.
