I'd bet my next paycheck that the most vociferous supporters of abortion are those who have had one. Human psychology dictates that a person seek absolution of his/her actions, and ridiculing those who see human life as a worthy endeavor is one of the ways the pro-abortioners compensate for their own personal irresponsibility.
Considering almost half of all abortion seekers have had more than one abortion, I don't think we can ever expect the pro-abortioners to put forth a pro-life argument because it simply does not jive with their own actions.

Ditto, Zim. This guy can't get pregnant and never could.
Why does government need to intrude into the patient-doctor relationship? If a doctor or the patient decides that viewing an ultrasound image is necessary, then let them make that decision themselves.
Last time I checked, government had no right to make me watch anything. Government can mandate that material is made available, but that's where it ends.
Laws such as this are purely un-American. Shame on Texas.

I don't particularly like this law, but other states are enacting similar laws.
I was a bit confused also. So when you use the argument its a womans choice and her body you are correct, but when i use the argument I'm wrong? You seem offended i was using this argument
With the entire country concerned about the high cost of health care, has anybody addressed who is going to PAY for the implementation of this law? It has to be considered; this is not going to be cheap, and it certainly isn't going to be paid for by women who don't want or need it (and often can't afford it).
Why not just let the woman and her doctor decide what is needed?

What I was referring to is the decision about whether a sonogram is needed.
