For both mother and fetus, the reform movement holds, such is the real due process required. Much of this might come about simply by more liberal interpretation of existing state laws.

Because it is one of the heaviest natural elements (a 1-ft. cube of uranium weighs 1,167 lbs.), even a tiny uranium flechette fired at high velocity from a gun has so much kinetic energy that it can penetrate a target at an angle as oblique...
