Texas Abortion Law

What's Going On? Some of the strictest abortion restrictions in the country have been tossed out just one day before they took effect in Texas. A federal judge states that some of the parts of the new Texas rule are unconstitutional because that would make abortion receivements far from possible. Doctors would need privileges of admit at a hospital within 30 miles of any abortion clinic, plus, they would have to follow strict rules for pill-induced medical abortions. The law took hold of an almost 13-hour filibuster by State Senator Wendy Davis, who is currently running for governor, and prompted a protest when lawmakers tried to vote back in June about the law. Of course, though, planned parenthood and abortion providers in the state challenged the law, but the attorney general claimed it as necessary to protect women, and the life of a fetus. Texas Governor Rick Perry commented on the ruling, saying in a statement, "Today's decision will not stop our ongoing efforts to protect life and ensure the women of our state aren't exposed to any more of the abortion-mill horror stories that have made headlines recently ... We will continue fighting to implement the laws passed by the duly-elected officials of our state, wills that reflect the laws and values of Texas." Meanwhile, senior legal analyst Jeffrey Toobin says, "The Supreme Court has said about abortion that a law cannot be an undue burden on the rights of women. What this judge decided in Texas was that the idea that all the doctors in a given clinic have to have admitting privileges at a local hospital would have required about two-thirds of the current abortion clinics in Texas to close, and that, he said, was not medically justified and an undue burden on the right of women to have abortions in Texas. So it was unconstitutional." In addition, the law also bans abortion after 20 weeks of pregnancy, and there is uncertaintity that that part of the law will be maintain. It si said that Governor Perry, and Texas state Attorney General Jim Abbott, who is also a candidate for governor, will appeal this decision to the fifth circuit court of appeals. What I Think? I honestly am not a fan of abortions because, to me, I think it's just like poisoning a person to death-which is murder. Though this, in some cases I think that abortion would be at least a little bit acceptable. Perhaps if someone was to get raped, impregnated by it, and choose not to have a baby of a rapist, that'll be understandable to a certain degree. Now that I thought about it, that's the only case, to me, whereas it would be acceptable. For any other reasons like "I wasn't ready" or "My dad will kill me"- just stick with adoption. I cannot seem to understand how can people who do have abortions (for stupid reasons) sleep at night. You basically just murdered someone; someone who didn't even have a chance to live and see the world; someone who had their whole life ahead of them. I'm not implying that I'm going to hate everyone that has or have had an abortion because my wrong reason could be their right reason. I'm just saying that if you can't raise, don't spread-simple as that.
