Politics: Anti-Abortion Laws v. Stand Your Ground Laws

[teddywolf]

Might be triggery for some.
I had a thought recently about those Stand Your Ground laws going around in right-wing states. For example, Florida's is here (h/t to Canada's online legal magazine, Slaw). Many of those right-wing states also have increasingly difficult anti-abortion laws on the books.

My thought was, would the text of a Stand Your Ground law actually allow somebody to perform an abortion in an anti-abortion state? This is a tricky one, but a case could be made that the answer is Yes.

Discuss?

I didn't know m.livejournal.com even existed, but you should submit a bug report, pointing them at this post as an example.

Er, yes, didn't mean to stray this far off topic. Apologies.
