What is Personhood?
The right to have rights.
The right to have rights.
“We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.”
Declaration of Independence
"nor shall any state deprive any person of
life, liberty or property, without due process
of law, nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the law."
14th Amendment of The U.S. Constitution
The unalienable right to life does not originate with the State. It is a God-given right, so it cannot be abridged by the State. It can only be recognized as an intrinsic right.
In 1973, seven Supreme Court justices voted in favor of legalized abortion. Roe v. Wade was a 7-2 ruling by the Supreme Court of the United States. Its companion case, Doe v. Bolton, legalized abortion through all nine months of pregnancy for any reason. As a result, over 60 million children have lost their lives to abortion in the United States.
Cheif Justice Harry Blackman wrote:
‘(If the) suggestion of personhood [of the preborn] is established, the [abortion rights] case, of course, collapses, for the fetus’ right to life is then guaranteed specifically by the [14th] Amendment.’”
Georgia Right to Life is leading the way to protect all innocent human life by amending the Georgia Constitution. The Personhood Amendment will provide legal protection to all innocent human beings from earliest biological beginning, until natural death.
***Please do not be mislead by the idea that women will be thrown in jail for miscarriges, ectoptic pregnancies, or for using contaception. None of these things are true. Personhood is about equal protection for all innocent human life.
