Governor McDowell of Virginia has rescinded his support of a new bill that would force every woman undergoing an abortion in the state of Virginia to undergo a trans vaginal ultrasound. Many have argued this is an invasive procedure and not necessary. Most women know it is not comfortable but it is really not about comfort is it? Especially since we all know an abortion is far worst. Its about lawmakers in this state trying to bully and scare women out of not having an abortion. That somehow if they have to undergo procedures and be forced to see the fetus on ultrasound it will decrease the number of abortions that are performed. I understand that the republicans and conservative that are the current ruling party in Virginia are pro-life but last I checked, abortion is still legal. No matter what their personal feelings are on the matter, I do not think state lawmakers should be able to make up their own rules.
Thoughts?
