The HOUSE Redefines "Life"

H.R.212

(SUMMARY) Sanctity of Human Life Act - Declares that: (1) the right to life guaranteed by the Constitution is vested in each human and is the person's paramount and most fundamental right; (2) each human life begins with fertilization, cloning, or its functional equivalent, at which time every human has all legal and constitutional attributes and privileges of personhood; and (3) Congress, each state, the District of Columbia, and all U.S. territories have the authority to protect all human lives.

I thought this was settled law?  There is a second bill with the same basic idea.  I hate abortion myself, especially late term abortions.  If it happens in the first 12-14 weeks, not so much.

Do they even think about the consequences of something like this?  They already DONT want to support poor people, but think about how many more there will be if this was to pass?  They are really just pandering to the right wing christians.  Is it wrong to oppose people who can't support their own kids, having them in the first place, when they don't want to?  Oh, "personhood" is a made up word.
