The Trouble With Big Government Part 2 |
Republicans in Virginia have passed and the Governor says he will sign, a bill requiring that all women seeking an abortion MUST have a "transvaginal ultrasound" first. This is a totally unnecessary and invasive procedure.
Quote:
The ultrasound legislation would constitute an unprecedented government mandate to insert vaginal ultrasonic probes into women as part of a state-ordered effort to dissuade them from terminating pregnancies, legislative opponents noted.
"We're talking about inside a woman's body," Del. Charnielle Herring, a Democrat, said in an emotional floor speech. "This is the first time, if we pass this bill, that we will be dictating a medical procedure to a physician."
Oh, and the Virginia Assembly has also passed a bill saying that human life begins at the moment the egg is fertilized.

That makes a lot of women murderers when the fertilized egg fails to implant in the placenta.

Dumb. A woman doesn't just decide to have an abortion on a whim. The Governor sounds like an idiot.

And, if you, as a guy, go a second round, could that be considered assault and battery?

The ironic part is that leftest Democrats created the slippery slope a long time ago that led to this.

McConnel has used his tenure here as a springboard for national politics. He is wholly uninterested in actually governing the state.
That said, it's actually a state assemblyman that is driving this. He's running for the Senate and figures this is a good lock for support from the more pious parts of our state (Lynchburg and SW VA.)
It's going to backfire.
And technically speaking, this bill might make me a criminal. Although we keep getting assurances that contraception will still be legal, once the bill becomes law it's subject to interpretation by the judiciary and it's going to be shockingly easy to undo that promise (on purpose.) Since I have had contraceptive surgery, it's entirely possible that I could end up a criminal.
