Shoe on the other foot thoughts...

What if the 2nd Amendment stated?

"The right of a woman to have an abortion shall not be infringed."

What if the following happened?

The Supreme Court ruled that the 2nd Amendment is a individual right but the government can make reasonable restrictions by a 5 to 4 vote, and you are one vote away from abolishing it.

There were reams of writings by the founding fathers explaining the foundation and importance of the 2nd Amendment and politicians and legal scholars all ignore it putting their own uniformed interpretation to it.

Abortions were banded in all the world except the United States and Switzerland. Every household must have at least one abortion in Switzerland.

Returning veterans are denied abortions because the government has determined they aren't mentally stable enough to have an abortion, despite no diagnosis or evidence reflecting this determination.

Major newspapers published a map showing the names and addresses of every women who had an abortion.

You had to register with local authorities before having an abortion.

You have a bumper sticker that reads, "If abortions are outlawed, only outlaws will preform abortions." And "I will give up my abortion when you pry my dead cold fetus from my hand."

Editorial pages in major newspapers called for the president and executive director of Planned Parenthood be killed.  The killing of all members of Plan Parenthood was advocated.  The razing of Planned Parenthood's headquarters and the salting of the ground was advocated.

The government's own statistics showed that unrestricted abortion actually showed it saved lives in the long term.

The National Rifle Association received half a billion dollars a year from the public treasury.

Piers Morgan held a week of shows dedicated to abolishing the 2nd Amendment, calling representatives of Plan Parenthood women's rights and abortion advocates "Stupid."  Guests advocate a late term abortion for radio host Ed Shultz because he is a proponent of unrestricted abortions.

Local governments placed exorbitant taxes on abortion equipment and facilities.

All abortion clinics and doctors must have a federal license and pay a fee to operate.  They are heavily regulated by the Department of Human Services.

Illegal gangs and criminal organizations will not close their clinics.

All the talk of restricting abortion let to millions of women getting pregnant so they can exercise their right to an abortion, creating a nine month backlog at clinics.

Joe Biden is put in charge of commission to limit the 2nd Amendment.

A conservative president decides he can't get legislation or a constitutional amendment to prevent the killing of the unborn and decides to act unilaterally, through executive order to make reasonable restrictions to the 2nd amendment, no abortions after 30 days, a national registry of woman who had abortions, background checks for all women who want an abortion, a limit to one abortion a lifetime. 

And if you say to yourself, guns kill children, you lack a sense of irony.

There are just some thoughts with the shoe on the other foot.
