Shock, anger, confusion grip Alabama after court ruling on embryos By Tim Craig and Sabrina Malhi Updated February 21, 2024 at 8:14 a.m. EST|Published February 20, 2024

Alabama doctors are puzzled over whether they will have to make changes to in vitro fertilization procedures. Couples have crammed into online support groups wondering if they should transfer frozen embryos out of state. And attorneys are warning that divorce settlements that call for frozen embryos to be destroyed may now be void.

Throughout Alabama, there is widespread shock, anger and confusion over how to proceed after the state Supreme Court ruled Friday that frozen embryos are people, a potentially far-reaching decision that could upend women’s reproductive health care in a state that already has one of the nation’s strictest abortion laws.

This decision goes far beyond the embryo state. If embryos are "people," do they change into non-people 1-2-6-9 months later?

"People" have rights, one of which is the right to life.
 
The Alabama Supreme Court ruled that frozen embryos created through in vitro fertilization, or IVF, are considered children under state law and are therefore subject to legislation dealing with the wrongful death of a minor if one is destroyed.

The IVF can continue but if you kill one, it's a crime of wrongful death of a minor.

The salient part is that embryos are now people i.e. children.

The Alabama S.C. has codified what we have already known, embryos are people, children.
 
Embryos are not people. People are people; embryos are embryos. Acorns are not oak trees.

Embryos ARE NOT people.

What really has to be determined is: Are MAGA morons people?
 
I expect this State Supreme Court decision to be upheld by the US Supreme Court.

Then, if the unborn children or people are murdered during a pregnancy or after the birth, you have committed a crime ie. the wrongful death of a minor (a child).

But the embryos that were destroyed because of the Clinic's negligence were that couples only chance of having children .. of adding little people to their family... The lower court wouldn't recognize this so the Supreme Court stepped in And Was the right decision in this Case... ultimately it's not going to change the IVF process except that maybe doctors will be more mindful in the future when it comes to storing and protecting them properly..
 
“The Alabama Supreme Court ruled that frozen embryos created through in vitro fertilization, or IVF, are considered children under state law and are therefore subject to legislation dealing with the wrongful death of a minor if one is destroyed.”

Embryos, children, do not change into non-children at two-six-nine months.

This is change of Biblical proportions.

Indeed…indeed!
 
This State Supreme Court decision does set a precedent that embryos are children…with Civil Rights, one of which is the right to life.

No morality issues here, just cold, hard facts about a legal issue.
