Monday April 12, 2010 - Abortions

I was reading in the paper today that Oklahoma has some anti-abortion bills on their agenda. Some of which seem senseless to me. They have a measure that will require both the woman and abortion provider to fill out a lengthy questionaire. Are they thinking that if they make the questionaire long enough that neither the provider or patient will want to fill it out?

Another one they have will require the woman to have an ultra-sound and have the doctor describe the fetus to them. If the woman is in the early stages of her pregnancy, what will describing the fetus accomplish? All the doctor will be able to tell her is if the fetus is healthy for the stage that it is in. He will not be able to tell you whether it is a boy or girl. So describing the fetus at this point is, well, pointless.

I believe that if a person has been blessed with a baby, they should have it. There are a lot of women in this world that can not have one, and would love to bring a baby into their home. I know that this is not all ways an option for mothers-to-be, but it is a positive option compared to abortion.

Forcing someone to have an abortion is illegal. Hmmm, put it on a sign and have it posted in abortion clinics. Hmmm  Is this a no-brainer? I can see abortions being performed on women that are in a bad situation, like rape, or other health reasons, but without that, let the child live.

The Last Partner is against abortions.
