Reply to comment by Infernalism in Lawyer argues fetus of jailed pregnant woman is being illegally detained by He-is

There are legal professionals who predicted that these cases would arise after foetal personhood legislation was passed.

In addition, should the infant's right to own a gun be restricted because it is not a criminal and is being imprisoned without legal authority? No! The newborn should have access to a firearm!

Yep, Georgia lost court cases and now pregnant women can start claiming a fetus as a dependant and other benefits starting at 6 weeks now.

Yep, ACLU took them to court and because of how they worded the law the court ruled that the state has defined any fetus of 6 weeks with a detectable 'heartbeat' as a 'person'.

That wording is how they tried to ban it, but in October last year the actual ban was repealed because Doctors proved to court that the law was too vague of when they could intervene. Along with the fact that when the law was passed Roe vs Wade was still in effect and thus the law was null and void due to being unconstitutional at the time of passing.

The right-wingers don’t care about legal professionals or the laws themselves. Just whatever they think should be how things go. Facts don’t matter. That’s why the US is far behind the rest of the modernized countries in all but military strength.
