Ummm, question. If there is a death certificate issued, is it possible to claim insurance benefits for a death? I know - sick, but I would not put it past the liberals.

[MisterRepublican]

What an excellent idea. I had never thought about that. Why shouldn't they be issued death certificates? Oh, that's right, they aren't human beings, just "globs of tissue". Abortion is murder.

"But abortion rights advocates called Rep.-elect Roger Koopman's bill "mean-spirited"

But killing the baby isn't.

[Bluegrass Conservative]

Hmmm. Could also be a way to help raise revenue for the state. You have to purchase death certificates, don't you?

[lilylangtree]

Abortion goes beyond "mean-spiritedness".

[Jokelahoma]

It would require more work in that regard. If, as liberals believe, the fetus is not a viable being but part of the mother, could we classify the death as an assisted suicide? Most insurance companies don't pay life insurance on suicides. And if it IS viable, then wouldn't it be homicide? No benefits paid to the murderer. Either way, no win for the lefties.

I was struck by the opposing statements.

No one said, "We aren't killing anyone. The unborn is not a person."

I guess they know what they are doing.

[Imaverygooddriver]

What if the abortion is a zygote? Will the zygote get a death certificate?

[taxcontrol]

Hmmmm, good points.

[maestro]

Excellent!

[IncPen]

Mean spirited?

> said the proposal serves no purpose "other than making >women feel bad for making a difficult decision."

Poor little murdering mommy's. God forbid they actually feel BAD for killing thier unborn child.

And would they be Jane/John Doe #2,346,489 and #2,346,490 or have real designations? Like "Baby Girl" Lincoln. I only use that name to show what may have been lost to us during these abortion years.

[Bluegrass Conservative]

Let me introduce you to Fred the camel . . . even he is smarter than a Washington Inside-the-Beltway Pro-Life lobbyist!!!

Are deaath certificates required for miscarriages? Abortion is a forced miscarriage.

[monday]

"Koopman, a Bozeman Republican elected to the House in November, said he is introducing the measure because he believes women who choose to get an abortion should be made aware of the consequences."

What makes him think this would do that. Doctors would just file the paperwork like they do all the other paperwork required by Medicare or the insurance company. The women won't even know about it. It's a stupid idea proposed by a stupid man.

>Are death certificates issued for miscarriages and >stillborns?

Most states it is if it is after the 20 week.
