Would such laws be kept on the books and/or passed at a state level if Roe v. Wade was wiped off the books by the United States Supreme Court? I suspect that they would, in some form or fashion.
LRB - I understand your position on rape, but I respectfully disagree with it. Why should the child be killed when it was his father who committed the crime?
reeds - You said, "I personally dont believe in abortion..." Why not?

In point of fact, California legalized it four years before Roe. So if the court hadn't created a right out of whole cloth I could easily see it moving across the country via the more liberal states.
