So I'm going through my California November Election Voter
Information Guide and I see this Prop 4:
So, I like the idea of waiting period before going ahead with
abortion with minors, BUT, I completely dislike the "PRO"
argument of "it is reducing pregnancies in 30 other states,
reduces sexually transmitted diseases and protects teens
from predators". I say BULL_FUCKING_SHIT!
What do you think?
How would you vote?
Information Guide and I see this Prop 4:
PROP 4. Waiting period and parental notification before termination of minor's pregnancy. Initiative Constitutional Amendment.
SUMMARY ........... (Put on the Ballot by Petition Signature)
Changes California Constitution, prohibiting abortion for unemancipated minor until 48 hours after physician notifies minor's parent, legal guardian, or, in limited cases, substitute adult relative. Provides an exception for medical emergency or parental waiver. Fiscal Impact: Potential unknown net state costs of several million dollars annually for health and social services programs, court administration, and state health agency administration combined.
ARGUMENTS
PRO
Doctors, nurses, teachers, and LAW ENFORCEMENT endorse Proposition 4 -- Sarah's Law. Notification laws in thirty other states are reducing teen pregnancy and sexually transmitted diseases and protecting young girls from being victimized by older men. STOP SEXUAL PREDATORS. Join California District Attorneys who say VOTE YES on Prop. 4.
CON
Prop. 4 is dangerous. Mandatory reporting laws can't force scared, pregnant teenagers to talk to parents, but may force them into back alleys, or worse. Prop. 4 won't protect teens from predators. Prop. 4 won't work, fosters more lawsuits, and puts teens at risk. To protect teens, Vote NO. (www.NoonProposition4.org)
