A Pro-choice Nightmare In Colorado — What’s Next?
This is from a post by Jill at Brilliant at Breakfast.
And you thought I was being overly dramatic about sending used tampons for government inspections.
If this law in Colorado passes, that’s exactly what you’d theoretically have to do (no, I’m not going to say “conceivably”. That would be tacky):
The Colorado Supreme Court cleared the way Tuesday for an anti-abortion group to collect signatures for a ballot measure that would define a fertilized egg as a person.
The court approved the language of the proposal, rejecting a challenge from abortion-rights supporters who argued it was misleading and dealt with more than one subject in violation of the state constitution.
If approved by voters, the measure would give fertilized eggs the state constitutional protections of inalienable rights, justice and due process.

Hi “Love&Peace Girl”.
I can’t really speak for what these women are feeling, but I do support all women’s right to choose.
Thanks for commenting.

There’s a satrical slogan that says, “Life begins at conception, and ends at birth.”
Ms. Catherine Morgan, you’re a nurse, have you seen anyone pregnant when they aren’t ready or wanting to raise or even not in a stable physical condition to give birth to and raise a child? From your perspective, what’s it like for them? What are their views on this issue?
