Larry Pittman
We need to make the death penalty a real deterrent again by actually carrying it out. Every appeal that can be made should have to be made at one time, not in a serial manner. If murderers (and I would include abortionists, rapists, and kidnappers, as well) are actually executed, it will at least have the deterrent effect upon them. For my money, we should go back to public hangings, which would be more of a deterrent to others, as well.

Steve King compares abortion to firing guns randomly into the crowd: Steve King Makes Obscure Argument On Abortion Invoking Guns
Steve King
In fact, if you want to argue that you really don't know, that it might be the first, second or third trimester or viability, tell me: If someone were to walk down this hallway and stick a gun in the door, turn their head away from the gun and pull the trigger and run out the door and we catch him out there, did he kill somebody or didn't he?

Angle opposes abortion even in instances of incest and rape
Sharron Angle
You know, I'm a Christian and I believe that God has a plan and a purpose for each one of our lives and that he can intercede in all kinds of situations and we need to have a little faith in many things.

Santorum says that right to privacy ruined everything.
Rick Santorum
All the rights in the Constitution, which are individually based rights, according to our founders were not there for the individuals gain, but the reason we established those rights was for the common good. The right to privacy is not the right to a common good. Its a me-centered right, that obviously started in the sexual revolution with contraception and obviously quickly evolved to abortion, and now has found its way into the marriage debate. And all those acts that were self-giving acts, self-sacrificing acts, have bee...

03/29/12Arizona's Extreme Abortion LawControversial LawAbortion, Jan Brewer, Women & ArizonaMajor Severity & Average Popularity (Confirmed Partially)00Reference
Jan Brewer
Arizona's abortion law "The Mother's Health and Safety Act" passed, banning abortion after 20 weeks of gestation. On top of that, the law defines gestational age as beginning on the first day of a woman's period, rather than at fertilization. So in practice, that means the state has banned abortions after about 18 weeks (20 weeks from the last menstruation) except in the case of medical emergencies, making Arizona the strictest state on abortions. Also, making Arizona the state claiming that life starts 2 weeks before any...

Sam Brownback
Gov. Sam Brownback has signed a bill into law that would allow pharmacists to refuse to provide drugs they believe might cause an abortion. Called the Heath Care Rights of Conscience Act, the new law would bar anyone from being required to prescribe or administer a drug they "reasonably believe" might result in the termination of a pregnancy.
