The story is pretty insignificant anyway. As I said, the law will be declared unconstitutional before long. It's nothing more than a challenge of Roe V. Wade and it will fail.

I'm not the one actually making a mockery of the "land of the free"...the american government and media sensationalize it more than anyone..The President can't say a sentence without mentioning "freedom"..american culture is obsessed with the word and the idea of "freedom"..so I find it hilarious when stories like this happen...its not anti-american at all, its just pointing out the absurdity of how "freedom" is such a massive notion in american culture...
and I hope you're right about it being deemed unconstitutional, but I disagree that a state trying to push for this kind of law is really insignificant..there must be a few people who feel its the right way to go.
