The point is right below here, which was that the law (as written) 
will likely never come to be.  It was also to counter your 
implication that the law was in practice right this minute.

Neither, actually.  Admittedly it's an "educated guess", but I'm 
pretty sure I'm correct.  As for the "absurdity" - I completely 
agree that there needs to be allowances made for cases of 
rape/incest.  No question about that.  My belief is that the law 
was written the way it was knowing how much "outrage" it would 
cause, and then.... they'll add the exceptions for rape/incest and 
be able to claim that they've made concessions and the law should 
be enacted with those changes.  In reality that is what was 
desired/planned the whole time.

I hope it does happen.  We've had legalized murder for far too 
long.  If you're so against "women dying", why does it not bother 
you that MILLIONS of babies have died?

The adults that think it is NOT OKAY to kill innocent babies by 
the MILLIONS.  Those adults.  And yes, there are a lot of them.

The "unjust actions" you speak of are those seen through your 
eyes.  There are many people who think the legalized killing of 
babies is an unjust action, and should be stopped.  The times (and 
the courts) may be right for things to change.

This may be part of your problems... you're living in a Communist
