CONCORD, N.H. — Gov. John Lynch signed legislation Friday that made New Hampshire the first state to repeal a law requiring a parent be notified before a minor received an abortion.
The 2003 law never took effect because of a court challenge, and the repeal took effect immediately.

i guess NH is dropping the “Live Free or” part of its state motto and going with “Die”. they are sacrificing their young, the teens that are pregnant and need direction, and the unborn. Unbelievable.
Great! Can they also get cosmetic surgery, tatoos and breast enlargements without their parents knowing too? Live free or die and grow up early.
Sadly New Hampshire’s lost.........a terminally ill victim of a socialist invasion from Taxachusetts.
Maybe we should make a trade with the Canucks. New England for Alberta....straight up. Get rid of the Red Sux, Kennedy Kerry, Sanders and Leaky Leahy in one fell swoop
If this stands, then they can also vote and join the military at any age. I guess you are of legal age at birth in NH.
No on tattoos. Get that they can’t get a tattoo without parental permission.
This is what happens when people vote for democrats.
Kids can’t have a tooth pulled at the dentist without a parent but NH thinks it’s ok to have an abortion?
Maybe we should make a trade with the Canucks. New England for Alberta....straight up. Get rid of the Red Sux, Kennedy Kerry, Sanders and Leaky Leahy in one fell swoop
getting rid of the Red Sux?????? well...it will help the Yanks this season...
but trading fat ted for an Albertan to be named later.....priceless!!!
Ya know, it used to be that the border towns of NH were chock full of chiropractic clinics when they were illegal in the surrounding states ... will there now be an uptick in McD&C’s?
While feminist ideological political movement exercise authority over matriarchal culture we get Hillary "communist" Clinton courting single women with kids that survived family planning clinics by bribing them with free health care services for their vote.
Our new communist illegal immigrants will also love her message.
I, too, am among those who never believed the people of New Hampshire would "go wobbly". But they have. New Hampshire is indeed "lost", as a conservative bastion. It will not be back.
New Hampshire is one more example of how demographics and population shifts are changing the political composition of states, and why the future looks cloudy for conservatives, and for conservatism, in America.
With one exception (see below), this trend seems to _always_ go from "red", to "purple", to "blue". It's happening in several other states right now.
Some red states that I predict will be blue within 20 years (or sooner):
* Arizona - swamped with a flood of illegals. Also, receiving liberal retirees.
* New Mexico - the same.
...Both of these states will be part of the Atzlan of the future (another concept which folks laughed at ten years ago, but folks ain't laughing any more).
* Colorado - filling up with an influx of ex-Californians and liberals from other states with enough cash-in-hand to flee the messes they've made in the states they're leaving. Unfortunately, they will end up making the paradise they're moving to the equivalent of that they've fled, if given the chance.
* Virginia - once a bastion of Dixie, now being overwhelmed with liberals and illegals. The illegals don't vote, of course (well, not YET - wait for Hillary's administration to change that), but their CHILDREN will, someday. Who will they be voting _for_?
* Florida - turning slowly, but slowly "turning".
As I mentioned above, I see only one state that could actually "redden". And that state is poor, white West Virginia. So long a working-class state, so long represented by Democrats, we could actually see W.Va. shift to purple and then perhaps even to red.
Recall an article from the "mainstream media" that appeared on Free Republic a few months' back. In it, the reporter drew attention to the fact that the populations of West Virginia's cities are actually shrinking a bit- the reason being that almost no illegals or Hispanics choose to move there. This stands to reason, as W.Va. historically hasn't had a diversified employment base, and even that base has shrunk as America has de-industrialized since the 1970's.
So there are few industrial entry-level "no questions asked" jobs for illegals. And there are few "day labor" jobs, as well, since most folks down that way rake their own leaves and cut their own grass.
As a Euro-American baby-boomer nearing retirement, I'm looking for the right, conservative, small-town environment to migrate to (and to escape the congested liberal state I currently live in [CT]). A locale where the only language I'm going to hear is English, and just about all the other people "look like me" (if you want to call that racist or xenophobic, go right ahead, thank you very much). And somewhere like West Virginia will fill that bill.
I'm sure I'm not the only one with similar notions. In the next 15 years, I predict that we will see a "conservative migration" of Euro-American (ok, let me be blunt, "white") folks who pick up and retire to certain states for their politcal/cultural makeup. As they do, those states will trend even more conservative, or, perhaps "hold the line" from the "red shift" that's occurring now in some places like New Hampshire.
With the huge cohort of soon-to-be retirees, those indicators that previously made some states attractive (i.e., employment opportunities) simply don't matter any more. Retirees aren't interest in work, they're RETIRED. Their income may be fixed, but they no longer need jobs. This can make locations that were previously unattractive to those of working age VERY inviting.
The same factors that serve to keep illegals and working-age liberals OUT (lack of employment opportunities) make things MORE attractive to me, as a conservative retiree looking to be somewhere the illegals and liberals aren't.
Call this an ad-hoc "Free State Movement".
But there are few places where this will actually work. West Virginia may be one of them.
As Neville72 pointed out, New Hampshire is lost.

So minors can get abortions without permission, but they have to stay in school until they’re 18. Lynch raised the drop-out age this week...
Three places I'd recommend you taking a look at.
Wilmington, NC- has one of the highest numbers of retired CEOs in the country. Great beaches at nearby Wrightsville Beach, great sailing, lots of golf courses locally and a 100+ courses a short drive away in Myrtle Beach, SC.
Fairhope, AL- I moved here to escape Lousyana 18 months ago. Sits on a high ridge over looking the east side of Mobile Bay with elevations anywhere from 50-120 ft. > than MSL which takes away any danger of hurricane driven storm surge like that which demolished the Mississippi Gulf Coast. A 30 minute drive to the sugar-white beaches of Gulf Shores and Perdido. Lots of good golf and salt water fishing.
If you'd rather be inland:
Oxford, MS- really beautiful old small southern college town(Ole Miss) and a booming retirement haven. Less than a hours drive to Memphis, an international hub airport and its jazz on Beale Street along some of the best BBQ IN THE WORLD. Oxford was the lifelong home of great American writer, William Faulkner and current novelist John Grisham.
The left never gives up trying to destroy the family, morality, and civilization.
—New England for Alberta....straight up. —
That would be awesome. Billions of barrels of oil and two great hockey teams. Plus, great trilobite fossils from the Burgess Shale, to replace living fossils Leaky & Swimmer.
