- 201: The Power of The Judiciary
- ... change policy in America. The reason for this can be explained by a great many examples, the biggest perhaps being the case of Roe v. Wade where the issue of abortion took the forefront of the American judiciary system. In this case, to ask the Supreme Court to interpret the law as best described by the Constitution would be useless because the Constitution states nothing on the matter of abortion. So what is the Supreme Court supposed to do in these types of situations? The answer of course is to take the matter into their own hands and interpret the ... a law is to deal with political policy in America. When the Supreme Court carried out a decision on the Roe v.

He is a democrat that is hoping to get re-elected to serve another four years. While in his first term, Clinton has made abortion a legal act, increased our taxes, and been accused of many small lies; but if he is accused of those small lies, why should we not be able to ...

In 1956, a sexual act such as sodomy, oral sex, and intercourse with another married person in most states was illegal.

Sexual morality got unanchored in the 1960s, followed by the legalization of abortion. "Abortion is a very definite rejection of the child. So is out-of- wedlock births, as well as divorce," he says. "The [predators] everyone' s afraid of were abused kids. There ... every 100 children born, he says, 12 had divorced parents or were born out of wedlock.

- 208: Teenage Sex
- ... plain teenagers find it difficult to work for minimum wage, and even more difficult to find an employer who will hire them. Some teenagers feel the need to turn to abortion as a way of solving their problems.

About 23 states have passed anti-PBA (partial birth abortions) laws as of August of 1998 (Robinson, 1999). Illinois is among those 23. In some states, the legal age to have an abortion with no authorization is 17. That is too young to be deciding the life (or death) of an innocent human being. Another major concern for teenagers having sex is ...
