Judge Rules Embryos 'Human' A frozen embryo destroyed in a Chicago fertility clinic was a human being whose parents are entitled to file a wrongful-death lawsuit, a Cook County judge ruled Friday. Judge Jeffrey Lawrence II said "a pre-embryo is a 'human being' ... whether or not it is implanted in its mother's womb" and the couple is entitled to seek the same compensation awarded to other parents whose children are killed. [source: Covenant News, Chicago Sun Times, ABC News] Friday, Judge Jeffrey Lawrence II said "a pre-embryo is a 'human being' ... whether or not it is implanted in its mother's womb" and the couple is entitled to seek the same compensation awarded to other parents whose children are killed.Now the question is when will this class of individuals (human embryos) receive the same protection as more mature humans? This is a story that needs to get out ... Updates:
Here’s my assessment: An unborn baby is human only if the mother wants it. If she doesn’t, at any stage up to the legal limit of 32 weeks, she can have the child killed in her womb and get on with living. From 20-32 weeks, "partial birth abortion" is available. I won’t make you ill by describing the "procedure" here.Naaman responds to La Shawn, "...it is clear that our society does not accept the fact that human embryos are human beings, and public opinion is (sadly) more important to these types of cases than the law." PajamaHadin provides an interesting analysis as well, adding So it seems we have a peculiar (and philosophically nonsensical) situation here. The death of the victim is a crime (intentional homicide, voluntary manslaughter, or involuntary manslaughter or reckless homicide) for which a law suit may be filed. However, if the mother wants the unborn child to be killed, no crime has been committed.
