Abortion in Ohio would be prosecuted as murder under ballot proposal | The Columbus Dispatch

You've got to be kidding me.

Either way, this is going to be ruled unconstitutional.

We should never encourage more abortions. I am pro-choice and don't want more abortions. We need better education and more use of contraceptives for all people who do not want to get pregnant and we need safe, legal, expeditious abortion services for those who choose to abort for personal or medical reasons.

That said, I am hoping DeWine doesn't approve this bill. I'm sure that 300k people could be found to support it; however, I also am aware that it has a small chance of passing (we in the pro-choice community here in Ohio would go into high gear on this) and if it does, then it will be challenged in court like the OK case and found unconstitutional so would cause our state to waste millions of dollars on legal fees.

Don't they have better things to do than pass laws that are unconstitutional? Stupid, stupid, stupid!

First world problems.

In many countries people don't even have sexual freedom.

More Republican "fiscal responsibility" with taxpayer dollars.

I don't want to see any and all abortions illegal, but how would a bill, if it's purporting to protect human life, be considered unconstitutional?

Abortion is legal, therefore it cannot be murder.

Word is the abortion rate's dropping year by year, so def NO "need" for this bill. Too; most women who have abortions probably would've been crappy parents.

At one point, humans were property with no rights under the law.
