Here is an abortion parallel that nobody may have heard. It came to me the other day.
If you were a slave owner, before the Emancipation Proclamation, you were like a mini-monarch, in the sense of having the power of life and death over your slaves. He/She; slaves, were considered property, and not a human being with any human rights. The slave could be treated the same as owning a horse or plow. The owner of that property could do as they wished, with their property; temper tantrum, since property was not defined or considered human, but rather just property.
The contemporary mantra of a women's right to choose, due to a women owning her body, including the unborn is a parallel to the plantation owner and slavery. The female power of life and death over the unborn; property rights, is very similar, in outcome to a new form of slave owner bill of rights. In this scenario, immature humans are considered property, secondary to the needs of the plantation owner, with women entitled with the power over life and death, like before the Emancipation Proclamation.
I thought the Left was against the concept of slavery and human ownership, due to the idea of human rights. These apply to all, regardless of race, color, creed and social status, and supersede the human ownership of human based property. The state is freeing of new generation of slaves.
The Bible speaks of slaves, as a part of culture, due to war and conquest; political battles and the spoils of war. However, it also had certain rules for treating slaves with dignity. One was supposed to show respect for another human, even if of lower social status.
This change in the human condition, was almost like the Southern Democrats had successfully formed their own country; the south will rise again, where the nee slavery of the unborn became a legal part of life, seen as property with no human rights.
