A Uniquely American Solution
It's obvious that some problems in this country need an innovative American solution. These problems have existed for decades and have only reached stalemate whenever the question comes to our domestic federal leadership.
The leadership in the individual states has their own answers. But none of them can find any consistency. No common ground, as it were.
The two main issues at the moment are what to do with a fetus and what to do about guns.
At first glance, the two subjects appear to be completely separate. That is what the standard thought is. To tackle these two seemingly different issues, a new train of thought needs to be considered. Something truly out of the box, as it were.
There is a belief that some people have that a fetus is a person. A living being that should be afforded all rights and privileges of a living, breathing American granted by our United States Constitution.
One amendment, the 2nd amendment, protects the rights of all Americans to bear arms, meaning that they can own and store guns and the government has no right to take them.
That brings me to a solution to these issues that I have been contemplating for a few hours. A solution that I believe that, once presented, we may all find common ground and be united in our collective agreement.
Arm fetuses.
If, in fact, the fetus is a person, he or she has every right to defend itself. A tiny gun can be developed and a doctor or certified technician can insert the weapon into the hand, or hands, of the fetus after, say, seven weeks of gestation.
If an abortion is performed after seven weeks and if it shot the doctor or hospital staff, the fetus would be regarded as ‘floating your sac’ as in the amniotic sac. It would be like standing your ground, only it's a fetus.
An armed fetus would also be a deterrent for people having sexual relations. A couple would surely think twice if they knew that the baby they would conceive may end up armed and dangerous.
This idea is in the conceptual stage and obviously needs to be work shopped. Further ideas are open for discussion. A uniquely American solution requires all Americans working together.
If anyone should try this idea after reading this post, what are you? Nuts? This is a stupid idea! I’m questioning myself for having the notion to write this. Don’t even consider it. Go bowling or something until the thought passes. Thank you.
