MIAMI — Florida Gov. Jeb Bush has signed a death warrant for Paul Hill, an anti-abortion activist who shot an abortion doctor and his associate in 1994, who is slated for execution on September 3.
Media admitted that Hill “was on the fringe of the movement opposing abortion as he promoted the 'justifiable homicide' of abortion providers.” For that reason, pro-lifers do not consider Hill to have been a “pro-life” activist but a mis-guided anti-abortionist.
Florida Supreme Court Quashes Parental Notification Law
ST. PETERSBURG— Florida's 48-hour parental notification law has been quashed by the state Supreme Court, on grounds that it violates the privacy rights of teenage girls. The court ruled 5-1 to strike down the 1999 law, which never came into effect because it has been hamstrung by legal challenges from feminists who support abortion.
Justice Leander Shaw wrote for the majority, “We recognize that the legal issue of abortion has been one of the most gut-wrenching, emotionally laden issues of the past decades in Florida. Sitting as a court, however, we cannot be ruled by emotion.”
