	Colorado RTL opposes every law that regulates the killing of unborn children because, regardless of the intention, such laws:
	- violate God's enduring command, Do not murder
	-merely prune the abortion weed and strengthens its root.
	- make abortion seem more palatable to the public and politicians
	- turn conservative judges increasingly against the Right to Life of the unborn
	- will keep abortion legal if Roe v. Wade is merely overturned, and because they
	- end with the meaning " and then you can kill the baby."
	Please Note: When the mother's life is seriously threatened by a pregnancy, of course it is morally justified to deliver the baby but not if the intention is to kill the baby. When the life of the mother is at serious risk by her pregnancy, the goal must be to save the life of the mother and the baby if at all possible. It is just as wrong to kill the mother to save the baby, as it is to kill the baby to save the mother. "Legalizing" abortion, defined as the intentional killing of the unborn child, for the life of the mother leads to repugnant acts like emergency removal of late-term babies from the womb stopping midway in the procedure to kill the baby. If the baby dies, it is a tragedy; if the baby is intentionally killed, it is murder. If necessary to save the mom's life, the unborn baby could be delivered with the determination to care for both, and if possible, to save both the baby and mother!
