1/2 I recommend reading the complete opinion in which Georgia Judge Robert McBurney struck down Georgia's abortion ban, relying on the robust liberty protections of the GA Constitution. His reasoning is remarkably simple: the State can intervene to care for a person who otherwise would suffer...

I keep going back to this "Women are not some piece of collectively owned community property the disposition of which is decided by majority vote,"

Footnote on pg. 2 remarkable: " . . . the meaning of the Constitution is no more fixed than is the composition of the majority in the highest courts of the land -- especially when formerly bedrock principles such as stare decisis appear to be on the wane."

2/2 ... such as a neglected child. But pre-viability, only *the pregnant woman* can care for the fetus, and under basic and long-standing understandings of liberty and privacy, the state has no right to hijack control of her body to force her to do so. www.atlantanewsfirst.com/2024/09/30/j...
