Answering Objections to Abolition Part 2
Manage episode 335858646 series 3367287
We're back again with Joshua Jenkins and Kevan Myers finishing out our two-part series on objections to an abolitionist approach to ending abortion.
Episode Guide:
5:01 - Why do we believe women (and all those involved in abortion) should be prosecuted? Aren't women victims?
8:32 - Abolition is loving to all people
16:00 - Would an abolition bill punish people who'd be involved in abortion prior to the law's implementation? Also - how would prosecuting these crimes work?
24:35 - If we passed an abolition law, it'd just get held up in court, so why should we still work to pass a law like that?
29:35 - What should a state do if that happens? What is the doctrine of lesser magistrates and interposition?
37:19 - Why are incremental laws wrong, and also, why don't they work?
45:30 - Note about the New York Times interviewing someone who performed a home abortion.
46:25 - What would a successful abolition law's implementation look like?
