Bob Vander Plaats is calling for the removal of the three Iowa Supreme Court justices who upheld abortion rights saying, "These three dissenters have shown blatant disrespect for the Constitution, the people's representatives and we the people." I am one of those "people" and Bob Vander Plaats does not speak for me or most of the other people I know.
As long as there is sex, there will be abortions. It doesn't matter how many laws are passed against it. The question is, are abortions going to be safe or not?
Why not let the people — all the people — vote on this issue?
