#MakeCrimeIllegalAgain

A More Perfect Nation

Imagine if you will, a nation where babies are safe within the womb. Where murdering babies is the most terrible act, and one simply never done. Where the miracle of life is sacred.

2) @shestokas has taught me to believe in such progress. He points out to me that once slavery was enshrined in law, with all the majesty that law imparts. Evil and contrary to every aspect of our creed as a people, it existed lawfully until it was make illegal.

3) We may argue over the morality of contraception. Many reject it. I do not. But I do reject every form of abortion, to include the day after pill. Murder by pill is still murder. And yes, with great agony, I have accepted the term "murder," as the only one appropriate.

4) The world may, indeed, be a complex place. Yet, we may simplify and here is my own. Adoption. And yes, I'd urge that we, by law, NOT make exceptions for rape or incest. I have a different answer. Execution. I would take a life for a life, to include rape and incest.

5) I must rapidly qualify that the extreme sentence called for above is my own. No one, and certainly NOT @shestokas is responsible for my radical position. I have simply come to believe that life is sacred, regardless of the evil that may have brought it to be.

6) I can also see how my liberal friends and family will accuse me of inconstancy, prohibiting abortion as murder, but embracing execution of rapists and those who commit incest as against the principle of life. I reject this argument, but understand it will be made.

7) But again, imagine with me a nation where sacred life was treated that way, and where the inviolability of women and girls was every bit as sacred. It is our job to protect life, and we must protect it against evil doers of the worst kind.

8) It is no coincidence that most modern films on topic portray orphanages are terrible places of hellacious abuse. The idea that we would organize our society in such a way as to protect child from any and all conditions that threaten them is lost to the left.

9) What @shestokas taught me was that my judgements against the evils of our past were correct, but were a misleading snapshot of a moment in time. The trajectory through history is that our union, growing more perfect, was able to root out those evils.

10) Roe V Wade was a retrograde step making our union less and NOT more perfect. This week, SCOTUS regained the trajectory of our history as a free and safe people, protecting those most vulnerable, protecting their very lives from conception forward.

11) Rightly, SCOTUS employed the Federalism our founders intended it to use, by respecting the rights of the states to write their own laws. I hope for the day when no baby may be murdered, ever again. But the process of perfecting our union is honored in SCOTUS' work this week.

12) To whatever degree you agree with me, and certainly, in ensuring that @shestokas can #MakeCrimeIllegalAgain, we must turn tactical. If you live in Illinois, of course come out to vote in the primary on Monday!

13) If you do not live in Illinois, please, please do NOT underestimate your ability to help. Most of you know people in Illinois you can speak with. If you don't, you know someone else who does know people in Illinois. The power of these conversations is amazing.

14) Picture an old friend you haven't spoken with in some time. Yo! You still have a 312 area code old boy, do you still live there? It's been too long. Look, you guys have this awesome, crazy, constitutional guy running for AG, @shestokas, have you heard of him?

15) You can picture the conversation from there. Don't be shy. Reach out and help us get out the vote for the most important AG position in America. You really want to take action on this one, in order to progress toward a more perfect nation, a more perfect Illinois.
