You’re right, but you also have to protect innocent life of parents. look up SIDS (sudden infant death syndrome). The bill protects a parent from prosecution for manslaughter if they put the baby in a crib while they showered/ cleaned/ fixed food etc and their baby died randomly or suffocated. You have to put your baby down to get anything done. And sometimes they die. It’s not common but it happens. Only people who willfully neglected their baby should go to prison.
And FYI, I’m not defending the bill per se. I am just letting you know that it is being misrepresented
We are talking about the murder of an innocent child. A child's life is greater than an adult life. As far as the bill being misinterpreted, legislators aren't stupid. They know exactly what they are doing. Especially when dealing with the life and death of a child. You can't write up a bill and then just leave a loophole for people to get away with child murder and then say it's a misrepresentation of the law. Then add that some guy "theorized" this is possible. No, that's just calculated evil what they are doing. Lawyers are not dumb.
See that’s the thing, we aren’t talking about murder. Ideally anyway. You are right in the sense that they should make it hard if not impossible to find a loophole in the law to murder a kid. I agree with you 100% on that. But as far as the intention of the bill, it is so that a mother, who is already in extreme distress from grieving the loss of a child is not then put into prison for something out of her control. I think we agree on all this stuff, I am just trying to show that the post was somewhat dishonest in how the bill is represented
Well of course they are going to present a bill a certain way. It's like the devil when he presented the apple to eve. That's the deceptive part. Not the post. The post is pointing out that the bill is giving the go ahead for murdering children after they are born. Again, these people writing the bill know exactly what they are doing. They are the ones being deceptive and evil.
