just more anti choice people wanting to make women feel guilty about their choice. more anti choicers thinking women are too stupid to know what abortion is. women are not stupid, we know what abortion is without having to view an ultra sound. an abortion should be between a woman and her doctor. all else butt out
So from our friendly gun-toting, death-dealing, oh-so-conservative state of TEXAS we have this pretty little gem:
"Women seeking an abortion would have to first get an ultrasound under a measure approved on Thursday by the Texas House of Representatives. […]
Women would have to get an ultrasound between 24 and 72 hours before an abortion, the bill says. They would view the sonogram, hear an explanation of the image and listen to the heartbeat, if it is audible.
"We want to make sure that they're fully informed, that they understand the medical consequences, the psychological consequences and everything involved in the procedure," said the bill's author, Republican state Rep. Sid Miller."
Well, gee golly gosh, Sid, are you going to provide information for both sides of the option here? Actually, no you won't. Matter of fact, I'll do that for you.
Alright so sure we all know of the supposed 'evils' of having an abortion and how it will send you straight to hell, yada yada yada, blab blah blah. What we are not making ourselves aware of is the downsides to having children. Oh, Republicans and Conservatives alike are shocked and appalled at this statement? Don't act so surprised. I mean if you opened your eyes and shut your mouth for once you'd actually make some sense! Anyways, onward to the downsides!
1. The cost of raising a child is enormous - Estimated to be between $125K - $250K to raise just ONE child, and you feel as if women who get pregnant have no right to determine their financial future? Shame on you, Conservatives and Republicans.
2. Having a child forces you to face your own mortality - Face it. After a woman gives birth to a child, her function in this world is complete and that one giant item marked as "Procreation" on her bucket list is checked off. Sure she'll have to raise the child and whatnot, but her purpose has been fulfilled. See ya later, Barbara! Don't let the Liberals or Democrats stop you from going to Heaven!
Granted I could go into more detail and make it long and drawn out, but no doubt the Conservatives and Republicans are already pissed off at this Independent Moderate for making such a declaration. And Liberalcrats? Please, I'm too good for you guys. Both parties are full of **** poor idiots who can't decide on what to do with this country. Anyways, in before baby murder propaganda and Christians who feel they have the right to judge everyone but themselves!
The male conservatives want to "keep government out of their private lives" do not consider females to actually have private lives. They consider women to be subject to control by their fathers or husbands and, like all property, not to be subject to self control. Self control, including deciding to have an abortion, would imply that women were full citizens and not slaves. That is anathema to these men. This is a control issue and has nothing to do with the fate of the fetus.
