    This is stupid the woman should have a right in what happens to her body. Although I do believe the guy should have some say in that matter. As it is his zygote also.

    Also INB4 this thread gets locked.

    This would be a good discussion in the Debate Group. It won't end well here.

    And for what it's worth, I think it's sick to kill your own child because of its sex.

    I support it. Killing a baby just because it's not the sex you want is pretty much the most awful thing I've ever heard of.

    bills don't mean much in terms of legislation. there are thousands upon thousands of bills and few become law.

    but yeah, virginia's fugging crazy. not proud to live here. my representatives & senators are sick of me. they also think i'm a doctor.

    i think it's hilarious republicans are all up in arms about protecting something which doesn't breathe but "needs their protection" but don't give a **** about adults on welfare who also, arguably, need "protection".

    besides, are people actually aborting based on gender? is this china? or is another repub wasting time & resources on something which only happens in their own crazy mind?

    It's not a baby until it's born...

    You should be able to kill your child up until the 40th trimester

    1. Probably won't become law

    2. Probably unconstitutional if it did become law.

    3. Impossible to enforce if it were constitutional.

    I'm absolutely against this. Can't believe this is even an argument.

    Against the bill or against people having an abortion because they don't like the sex of their child?

    Before this thread gets locked I wanted to throw my opinion in there.



    It is a womans right to choose what she does with her body. You may not disagree with her choice(s), but it is HER body... not yours. People need to stop trying to push their personal beliefs/values off onto other people. Some say it is a Sin, well if it is a sin... those people will have to answer in the end, so let the person who judges them deal with it.
