Abortion What the Founding Fathers Thought About It
Explore the historical and legal perspectives on abortion, examining the views of America's Founding Fathers and their stance on 'concealment' laws. This book argues that the common law abortion rule was misinterpreted in Roe v. Wade, originally serving as an evidentiary tool for conviction. It further reveals how the Ninth Amendment was intended to integrate the founders' natural law principles, which, as articulated by thinkers like Locke and Montesquieu, mandated protection for the unborn from conception.
