SACRAMENTO, Calif. — Following controversy over undercover videos filmed by the Center for Medical Progress (CMP) into the practices of Planned Parenthood, a lawmaker in California has introduced a bill that would make secretly recording inside abortion facilities punishable by up to a year behind bars.

“It is the intent of the legislature to enact legislation to prohibit any person from intentionally video recording a confidential communication, or disclosing or distributing that video-recording communication, without obtaining the consent of all parties to the communication,” A.B. 1671, introduced by Assemblyman Jimmy Gomez ,reads.

It criminalizes any person who “intentionally discloses or attempts to disclose, or distributes or attempts to distribute, distributes, in any manner, in any forum, including, but not limited to, Internet Web sites and social media, or for any purpose, the contents of the a confidential communication with a health care provider.” Violations may result in up to a year behind bars and/or a $2,500 fine. Repeat offenders may face up to a $10,000 fine.

Publishing and broadcasting groups had expressed opposition to the bill until it was amended to include language applying specifically to health care providers.

I guess if Americans saw what the baby killers are doing in these abortion factories, they’d probably be screaming bloody murder about the “planned parenthood” baby killers slaughtering babies.

Why would they be afraid for the public to see what their tax dollars are paying for?

The ungrammatical phrase was "to disclose, or distributes or attempts to distribute, distributes, in any manner, in any forum, including, but not limited to, Internet Web sites and social media, or for any purpose, the contents of the a confidential communication with a health care provider." While the conversations were in a restaurant, they were communications "with a health care provider". Since the rule of law is effectively dead, I'm sure that would count.

The State of Texas should criminalize any Kalifornia baby murderer who votes for this, esp. ass(embly)man Jimmy Gomez.

Killing babies is okay, but filming the killing of babies is criminal. Why ? No one dies in the camera. Kalifornia has literally gone insane.

Also you may not take pictures of the iron gate with "Abtreibung Macht Frei" written on it.
