Virginia Anti-Choice Law IS Rape. At Least Under UTAH Law. Look It Up

The State of Virginia is debating a law, an Unconstitutional law, that would require women to not only have an ultrasound, but a, "Transvaginal Ultrasound" before having an abortion.

So what, you say? Waiting periods have been ruled Constitutional for everything from buying guns to abortions. Why can't you force a woman to view what's growing inside her before she aborts this possible human being?

Well, for one thing, it's just icky. It doesn't DO anything, but try to shame a woman into making a choice contrary to what she, her doctor, her significant other, and just for the sake of argument, her, God, have already decided.

And I'm sure the right wing nuts in the Utah Legislature are salivating at the chance to pass this law, too. But, there's a problem with that here in Utah.

Some of you might need some more information on this issue before you can follow along with me on this argument. Doesn't mean you are not an informed citizen. It means you didn't spend 23 years in law enforcement like I did. So you don't think like a Cop. Trust me, it's a good thing for you. But be glad you have guys like me who DO.

A, "transvaginal ultrasound" involves putting an ultrasound, "probe" into a woman's vagina, AND using the non-intrusive, on the belly type of ultrasound, with it, to try to prove a fetus' age. One of the, "Talking Heads" on TV last night was quoted as saying, "What's the big deal? You've already been penetrated once." I hope that was a joke, and that no one ever, really said that. Because if it's a true story? It's really, really sick and wrong.

And it just points to the real reason for this law. It's not preventing abortion. You do that by teaching sex education in school, and making contraception easy to get.

This is about a war on women's sexuality. Republicans don't want women to be able to have sex with as many people as Newt Gingrich.

And here in Utah? You already have a law that will prevent this dumb ass Virginia law from being passed.

Here in Utah, if you put something into a woman's vagina, without her consent, it's, Object Rape. And it's a Second Degree Felony. And if you Legislators try to twist logic to say that a woman who wants an abortion, "Consents" to the procedure? You got a HELL of a fight on your hands in the Federal Courts, where people are smarter than you.

You can't have it both ways. You are forcing a woman to CONSENT to the State putting something in her vagina? Really?

You want THIS on the National stage, when this week it was announced that Utah is one of only five states, Americans have a NEGATIVE view of? Along with California, Illinois, New Jersey and Mississippi?

If a woman wants a perfectly legal procedure, an abortion. And you have passed a law that, to get it, she must submit to a sexual assault, as defined by UTAH law? Good luck with that.

Seems the Republican, Mormon, idiots have painted themselves into a corner on this one.

But I'll bet you this. They will repeal the, Object Rape law, it they think they can get, transvaginal ultrasound passed to keep trying to humiliate women who want an abortion.

Any woman who votes for a Republican, for ANY office, is voting against her own, self interest. It's just crazy.
