A Constitutional and Wise Way to Protect the Unborn: A Response to Paul Linton
posted on May 18, 2012Reacting to lawyer Paul Linton’s criticism of her stance on the Pain Capable Unborn Child Protection Acts, Teresa Collett defends herself at Public Discourse. Outlining a “pro-life strategy,” Collett sees the court ready to take on the Acts and doesn’t “believe judicial recognition of fetal pain is too small a gain to risk reaffirming the general abortion license created by Roe.” Instead, she argues the proposal “is a powerful part” in a longer legal battle. She states: “I believe a majority of the Court, including Justice Kennedy, is looking for an exit strategy from the cultural combat surrounding abortion.”
