Missouri Must Allow Inmates to Have Abortions

Let's see if I have this right...Those condemned to die for committing CAPITAL crimes cannot receive a just and lawful legal injection without a licensed anethesiologist present yet an innocent unborn child can be condemned to die at the hands of his/her mother and a murdering abortionist. Utter and sheer lunacy!

ST. LOUIS (AP) - The state must allow pregnant inmates to have abortions and transport them to facilities that perform the procedure, a federal judge ruled Tuesday.

The ruling by U.S. District Judge Dean Whipple applies to all female prisoners in Missouri. In October, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled the state had to allow a specific inmate, listed as Jane Roe, to have an abortion.

Of course, the ACLU has its hands in this...
