The good folks in Texas are really confused about abortion. Considering that the right to an abortion is the “law of the land”, and murder is against “the law of the land”, Fort Worth can't seem to make up its mind about which is actually the higher law!
From the Fort Worth Star-Telegram:
Police are searching for a 22-year-old Fort Worth man accused of causing the death of his unborn daughter last month by repeatedly kicking his girlfriend, who was five months pregnant, in the abdomen.
Homicide detectives obtained a capital murder warrant against Jason D. Nash this month after the Tarrant County medical examiner's office ruled the death of the fetus a homicide. . . .
"The next day police were notified that the unborn fetus had died," Sullivan said. . . .
Under Texas law, a person commits capital murder if they murder an individual under six years of age. An individual is defined as a human being who is alive, including an unborn child at every state of gestation from fertilization to birth.
Is the victim in this alleged crime an unborn daughter, a fetus, an unborn fetus, an individual, a human being or an unborn child? Don't ask us, baby!
