Unborn Child To 'Testify' On Ohio Abortion Bill

An aide to committee Chairman Lynn Wachtmann said a pregnant woman will be brought before the committee and an ultrasound image of her uterus will be projected onto a screen. The heartbeat of the fetus will be visible in color.

This is the dumbest thing I've seen in the last three days, and as most of you know, I've seen some incredibly stupid shit in the last three days.

Fuck you, Ohio.  And fuck the stupid asshats in the Committee for letting this shit go forward. 

Neigh.

I don't know about that, since from a medical standpoint, it's true. More women die from childbirth than abortions by a country mile.

However, I get what you're saying and it's a fine line to walk, :(.

I think that phrasing it as "the physical and mental health risks from abortion are low" is fine, whereas saying "you'll be healthier if you have a termination" to a young woman who's undecided has a much higher chance of making her resentful about her decision later on.

True.
