S.C. women now required by law to view ultrasound images before having an abortion

It's not passed yet, it just made it past the lower house.

Thanks for picking that up, I misread it.

However, it doesn't appear that it will meet with any serious opposition in the upper house, and the governor is certainly not going to veto it.

Despite Goofball's passionate argument, I think this is a good thing.

These women should have to see exactly what it is they are destroying. If they can't live with the knowledge that they are responsible for the death of an innocent child, maybe abortion isnt the right choice for them.

So then, how do you feel about my original (if somewhat snarky) comment about death penalty jurors?

And if they refuse to look or watch, what then?

Good question. And probably the making of a Supreme Court ruling if a woman was ever refused an abortion because she refused to stare at the ultrasound image for long enough to satisfy her doctor.

What if you want to have the abortion done early enough that you really wouldn't see very much of anything on the ultrasound? Do they make you wait?
