Okay people. Read the bill. Just read it. Here it is: http://www1.legis.ga.gov/legis/2003_04/fulltext/hb1.htm
HB 1 - Abortion; petition superior court for permission
That's the title of it. Obviously the focus is abortion. I admit I was highly offended at first. Someone posted on the Internet that women could get the death penalty in the state of Georgia if they could not prove they did not have anything to do with the death of their child-if the bill passes. I was mortified that could happen.
Then, I actually read the bill. It is a great bill. It is trying to reverse Roe v. Wade. I am all for that. It could make physicians have to sign a certificate or something like it when a child is miscarried. I would have loved for my child to be recognized in such a way. I see this as a bill to protect babies and honor those that die for unknown reasons. So, before we accept what the media says, we need to do our homework.
I also don't see how a woman could say this bill infringes on her rights. The right to kill your child? If you are heartbroken after a miscarriage, how could you not be heartbroken after an abortion? Either way, a baby died. If I lived in Georgia, Franklin would get my vote!
