ANOTHER VIEW: To win, Democrats must come down strong for abortion

By Jack Bernard  |  Several years ago, my nephew (Anthony Bernard) and I wrote a column for the UGA newspaper, The Red and Black, which was entitled “Rep. Jody Hice has a poor record on women’s issues.” Even though ex-Congressman Hice was obviously anti-women’s rights, he represented liberal Athens, including the University of Georgia

ANOTHER VIEW: Draconian weapons and abortion laws need changing

By Raleigh Perry |  The draconian laws that many states have passed on anti-abortion and free access to guns has to be changed.  What I foresee is that the various state legislatures’ political balance will change considerably.  The same will probably occur in the U.S. House of Representatives and the Senate.

When the court hands down verdicts that a majority of the people are not in step with, something eventually must give.  We have little doubt that a majority of Americans, and especially women,  think it should be an individual woman’s fundamental right to terminate a pregnancy.
