Abortion is where you go to a hospital when you are four to five months pregnant and they give you medicine and then they take tongs and grab the baby from the sack and tear it apart.

In the late 1800s, women healers in Western Europe and US provided abortion, without legal prohibitions.

Libertarians support the right to control one's own body, and since 1974 the Libertarian Party's platform has unconditionally supported abortion choice until birth.

Any federal law banning abortion would be rooted in the same section of the Constitution now being challenged by conservatives in the suits against Obamacare: the Interstate Commerce Clause. Conservatives argue the original meaning of that clause permits Congress only to facilitate interstate commerce, not restrict it. If that’s true of Obamacare, then it’s true of abortion.

The bill of rights should make it where it is illegal to do abortion in all states, because it is wrong to kill an innocent person.
