You can say one thing about the Yes on 4 TV ad: It's sure to spark some strong reactions.
The campaign to pass an abortion parental notification law aired an ad last night with a young man bragging about impregnating underage girls and then taking them to get secret abortions.
The ad features a scruffy looking 20-something, wearing a white t-shirt and fleece jacket, talking straight into the camera about how, "I go out with some teenage girls."
"OK, so I get a couple of them pregnant. What is the big deal? I can just take her to get an abortion," the man says. "That's the great thing about the state of California. An under aged girl can go get an abortion, she doesn't have to tell her parents, her family, not even a teacher. Nobody has to know."
Proposition 4 would require notification of a parent or guardian before an abortion is performed on a minor.
The spot opens with the man saying, "Some people think I'm a child predator. What is up with that? I think they need to be a little more open minded."

Wow.
Of course lots of people out there will scratch their heads and say, “Yeah, what’s wrong with that?”
Very hard hitting and truthful...It will be interesting if any TV station runs it.
Yeah, this is perfect.
To defeat the left, expose the left.
And most of them DO think this way.
It’s better for a girl to “have the option” of abortion, even if she has been molested, so that she can go back to her molestor.
I am so glad this is up for a vote. I don’t understand how they can allow a girl to get an abortion, go home, have no one there knowing she had one so they can watch for any complications such as fever or bleeding out. I don’t get this. Is she going to alert her parents? Most likely not.
I mean, the poor girl can bleed out overnight and you got a dead kid in the bed!
Very sad, where we are.
Classy.
I have seriously heard someone argue that underage abortions should be allowed, and allowed to be private, so that the girl has “the option”.
But, as baffling as that was, I now know what the “reasoning” behind that argument was. It’s not about “having the option”, as in a future possibility - it’s about justifying a choice that the person arguing this position already made.
It’s gotta take guts to be an actor for those ads.
I’m sure that’s part of it, but I think there are a number of reasons people support it.
Planned Parenthood says we cannot go “back” to the days of botched “back alley” abortions. There are plenty of botched abortions in licensed clinics.
What do they tell the parents of a minor who comes home from a LICENSED CLINIC to bleed to death?
You think about it...
I’m about 90% sure that I’m right about this reason that people support abortion “rights”.
Young men see it as the ultimate “out”.
But most who support the “right” are simply trying to keep out any indication that what they’ve already done was wrong.
the confesed child molesters video should be used in an investigation to ctch this predator,
and SF news media should lead the charge
pssssst...
he’s an ACTOR,
in a TV ad.
Yes, there are those out there with the same opinion as the character is expressing, but it’s not HIM.
“Planned Parenthood says we cannot go “back” to the days of botched “back alley” abortions. There are plenty of botched abortions in licensed clinics.”
“What do they tell the parents of a minor who comes home from a LICENSED CLINIC to bleed to death”
Great point! Come sue us, here’s your hush money, GAG!

Oh sorry, mouth in gear before brain at wheel
