There's a post about abortion below the cut. I am pro-choice. If you think something I say might upset you or you don't like the topic, please do not click. Thank you. :-)
Utah is now added to South Dakota on my list of 'states to never go near, ever'.
Incest is no exception to a father's right to know what's going on in his daughter's life.
That was the message from Utah lawmakers who refused Monday to make an exception for incest victims in a proposed law that would require parental consent and notification before a girl's abortion.
....
"Abortion isn't about women's rights. The rights they had were when they made the decision to have sex," Buttars said. "This is the consequences. The consequence is they should have to talk to their parents."
Exactly! These slutty girls should've thought about the consequences before they made the decision to let their fathers rape them.
There are seriously no words. And this isn't a topic I bring up very often in my lj-- in fact, I think this might be the first time I've done it-- and that's because I don't feel like debating where this is concerned. I am pro-choice, anti parental-notification laws (most teenagers will talk to their parents about something that important, and if they choose not to, there just might be a good reason for that. You can't legislate good family relationships), and those are two issues on which I will not compromise.
I hear about cases where women are publicly humiliated for trying to get their birth control prescriptions, and that's just the start of what these people are trying to do, and it scares the hell out of me.
Today might just be the day I join the ACLU. I don't know. I need to do something.

Yeah. One of these days I'm going to start playing Whack-a-Mole with these people's heads. :-P
