Skunks Vs Babies

-Initiative 160, sponsored by Footloose Montana, would prohibit recreational and commercial trapping of wild mammals and birds on public lands in Montana. State signature tally: 4,669.-

- Constitutional Initiative 102, sponsored by the Montana ProLife Coalition, would amend the state constitution to define “person” to include every human being from the beginning of a human being’s biological development, effectively outlawing abortion. State signature tally: 5,073.-

I just read a message from Cal Zastrow and Pershonhood USA and this really made me think. Here we have two initiatives. One would define babies as persons. One would stop the trapping of mammals and birds on public property.

I'm very interested in the results. Have we gone far enough away from common sense and justice that skunks and rabbits will have more rights on public land than babies in their mothers' wombs? Will Montana declare through the votes and signatures of its people that mammals have more importance to them than their innocent unborn children?

40 states have followed the example of Colorado by starting Personhood movements. This is Colorado's second time placing a Personhood Amendment on the ballot. Some say last time was a failure. I can't disagree more. Colorado was the first to legalize abortion, and now is leading the country in ending it. I see God's hand in that, and I know He is with the effort. If we truly believe that abortion is never the right choice, then we have nothing to lose by backing the effort to end it.

So, Montana, will you sign and vote to save the skunks and squirrels and rabbits? Or will you sign and vote to save the babies?
