Iowa court rejects law requiring 72-hour waiting period for abortion
« on: June 29, 2018, 11:47:34 pm »
The Iowa Supreme Court is blocking a recent law that requires women to submit to a 72-hour waiting period before they can get an abortion.

The Associate Press reports that the court ruled on Friday that the requirement, which was signed into law in 2017, violated Iowa's state constitution.

The ruling comes after Planned Parenthood and the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) sued the state over the waiting period requirement. The law had peen placed on hold during the challenge, according to the Des Moines Register.

and yet:

In Iowa, no handgun may be transferred until the transferee obtains a five-year permit to acquire a handgun, which becomes valid three days after the date of application.

True, there is only a chance of a possible murder with the hand gun, while it is certain with the abortion.

Hey Look!  We agree!

But probably not in the way you meant it.

Which aptly illustrates why it is so fittingly applied to you.

True you are. One is natural right bestowed upon us by God. The other is murder.

So, did Jesus pass out the bullets before, or after, the manna from Heaven?

Are they not our God given rights, or does my sarcasm detector need a tuneup? My parents have the kids for the weekend so I’m off my game. It took my twice as long to do the grocery shopping by myself than with kids  :shrug:

Also, a Southern friend of mine likes to say, “Praise the Lord and pass the ammunition.” I quite like that one.

Where in the Bible does God make it a divine right to own a gun?

I think it was in the "smote" clause.

That’s a sword, not a gun, and it isn’t stating it as a God-given right.

But please, don’t let me stop y’all from making asses of yourselves.

It was the "gun" of the day.  You are making the argument that only muskets are covered by the 2nd Amendment there...but I think that may be consistent.

Sorry, you are the one who made an ass of himself.  Again.

So using your logic, 1A is only valid if: A) We shout our opinions from the courthouse steps or B) We write our opinions down on handmade parchment using ink and quill, then currying them back and forth from one another via foot and/or horseback?

Where in the Bible does God make it a divine right to own a gun?

Being armed, Self defense, defense of others, even lethal defense of property, are a biblical principals.

Exodus 22:2
Nehemiah 4:14
Esther 8:11
Luke 22:36
