Something to be proud of PING

[Mrs. Don-o]

Bravo. This is an excellent trend: States beginning to do what they should have done 38 years ago... the day after Roe v Wade.

Is Ohio becoming the most pro-life state in the union?

That would be great, especially when we have a pResident who looks at a child as a "punishment"

[ph12321]

There was 1 amendment included, which would allow an abortion to protect the life of the mother.... but it also forces the doctor performing the abortion to include the reason for the abortion, and that stays recorded for 7 years, essentially putting their medical license on the line. (The bill wouldn’t of passed the house w/o the amendment)

If more states follow Ohio, the social liberals who hide behind the libertarian banner (not all, some admit they are liberals) will suddenly find their voice.

While the extremist social left has had their way, the argument was off limits according the certain 'libertarian' talk show hosts; they were neutral you know.

With emotional voices they railed against social conservatives for even talking about it.

Now watch the same hypocrites suddenly find their voice, that is if the far left starts losing the ground they have been stealing for decades.

If it’s not singed by their Senate and Governor, then it’s not law. If it’s blocked by a judge, then it’s not law.

Good for Ohio, unfortunately I have no faith in the judiciary, I could see some activist court overturning this.

First the news from Kansas, now Ohio!

This is one of the Best 4th of July Weekends ever!

It’s still got a ways to go before becoming a law and then you know it’ll be challenged. It’s not celebration time just yet.
