The Eighth Circuit Court of Appeals seized upon some details from the Supreme Court's recent pro-abortion ruling in June Medical Services v. Russo to effect a pro-life outcome.
According to the UNFPA, the solution to sex-selective abortions is not to protect female babies from intentional violence, but to 'tackl[e] the preference for sons through changes in social norms.'
'You don't have to believe in anything,' Tony Abbott told pro-lifers, 'other than the basic decency of every other human being to think that we should never have infanticide on demand.'
'Enshrining a constitutional right to an abortion based solely on the race, sex, or disability of an unborn child, as Planned Parenthood advocates, would constitutionalize the views of the 20th-century eugenics movement.'
The Supreme Court is allowing to stand a lower court ruling that struck down a ban on abortions specifically motivated by a child’s race, sex, or disability.
