Lethal injections for killers is cruel and unusual punishment, but when it happens to unborn babies it is a woman’s right to choose?

 I read about this story, which has gone relatively unreported by the media, at Bunkerville and Political Realities and it sickens me every time I think about it. I do not write that often about abortion but this story really bothers me and I cannot remain silent.

  The New York legislature is debating a bill called the ‘Women’s Equality Act’ which would legalize late-term abortions, including the procedure of giving a lethal injection into the beating heart of an unborn baby which would be viable outside the womb. We can debate the issue of when the unborn is a baby and when it is simply an unwanted clump of tissue, as the left likes to call the unborn, but this goes well beyond that point in my opinion.

  Here is more:

In abortions that take place later in pregnancy, which would be legalized in New York by the abortion-expanding Women’s Equality Act, often babies are killed by sliding a needle filled with a chemical agent, such as digoxin, into the beating heart, before being delivered.

  Here is what I cannot wrap my tiny little brain around: many on the left oppose the death penalty and when killers are to be executed by lethal injection they oppose it based on the 8th amendment and its protection against cruel and unusual punishment while not taking into account the cruel and unusual punishment the killers inflicted upon their victims.

  How many people who support this legislation are opposed to lethal injection when it comes to convicted killers? Are not unborn babies, who have done nothing to deserve the death penalty, also protected under the 8th amendment? Is this not also cruel and unusual punishment? The punishment is the same but the crime–killing another human being versus simply being unwanted–is not comparable.

  The Declaration of Independence, which goes hand in hand with the Constitution, clearly states that all people are CREATED (not born) with unalienable rights; including the right to LIFE, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. It seems to me that if this legislation passes these babies will be denied all three…..
