Mary Sells reports in the TimesDaily that the Alabama Senate has passed Senator Dick Brewbaker’s proposed resolution SJR 67. The resolution simply declares that the Alabama Supreme Court got it right when it recognized that “child” in the chemical endangerment statute includes unborn children.
Because the resolution has no force of law:
Democrats at the public hearing Tuesday questioned the purpose of it.
“If the court said it was so, what do we need to do, say, ‘Amen?’ ” Rep. James Buskey, D-Mobile, said.
The pro-aborts are correct that the resolution is legally superfluous. But it’s not morally superfluous. We kill thousands of defenseless human beings everyday in America. Every clear thinking individual and legislator should take every opportunity to publicly recognize the humanity of the victims.
Thank you, Senator Brewbaker. The Alabama House is now considering the resolution.
