I think the issue for me has been that the substance of the bill doesn't matter one bit, meaning if this was seatbelt legislation...this is a ploy used by the anti-choice, pro-life movement across the world to try to get the rights of the unborn child, encadré, put into any piece of legislation they can think up.
What this committee needs to look at is how, state by state by state, the pro-life movement has been using bills such as this to actually put their anti-choice, pro-life agenda into legislation. That's what's dangerous about this bill. I couldn't give a whatever about the actual violence.... It's the rights of the unborn child getting into any piece of legislation. There is a tracking that this committee could do of how this has been done in other jurisdictions. That is the danger of this bill.
