North Dakota judge strikes down pro-life law on absurd grounds…

A state judge in North Dakota has just struck down the state’s pro-life law banning abortion, claiming that it violates the state’s constitution:

The judge in this case must be a raging liberal because the grounds on which he strikes down this law are absurd. First, state District Judge Bruce Romanick claimed the law is too ‘vague’. I read the law and it doesn’t sound vague to me at all, even in the exceptions, which is where his problem lies.

But even worse, Romanick claims that the state constitution “creates a fundamental right to access abortion before a fetus is viable”, which is preposterous:

Romanick cited how North Dakota Constitution’s guarantees “inalienable rights,” including “life and liberty.”

“The abortions statutes at issue in this case infringes on a woman’s fundamental right to procreative autonomy, and are not narrowly tailored to promote women’s health or to protect unborn human life,” Romanick wrote in his 24-page order. “The law as currently drafted takes away a woman’s liberty and her right to pursue and obtain safety and happiness.”

“Pregnant women in North Dakota have a fundamental right to choose abortion before viability exists under the enumerated and unenumerated interests provided by the North Dakota Constitution,” the judge wrote.

So the right to life and liberty equals a right to murder a living, unborn baby up until birth? If this isn’t the definition of a radical activist judge then I don’t know what is…
