NC Lawmakers Back Bill Adding Abortion Regulations
Source: WCTI 12 News

North Carolina legislators are moving ahead with an effort to make it more time-consuming to get an abortion by requiring state-mandated counseling, a 24-hour waiting period and an ultrasound of the fetus.
A House committee recommended the bill Wednesday.

Supporters say the extra information would help women make more informed decisions.
Opponents call that a sham and say the real purpose is to limit a woman's choice.

This is one of many crazy laws introduced by the new republican majority.
For the first time in 112 years, republicans hold a majority in the North Carolina State House and State Senate.
They are enacting voter disenfranchisement laws, they are firing 22,000 teachers, they are sending back federal grant money,
and they are just bat shit crazy.

2. It is a shame humans are not marsupials.
Then both sexes could share the experience.

3. LOL! Well, you know the old saw:
"If men could get pregnant, abortion would be a God-given right!" And you know what? I believe it.

7. Typical - it's what so many morans voted for after being so angry about the black guy in the WH
Also typical of these right-wing pukes, it's always about the precious fetus - screw the infant, the child and the young adult.

Hypocrites that include some really nasty, racist Christian zealots.
