Oklahoma abortion law to put patients' details online | World news | guardian.co.uk
I'm against abortion, but I figure I won't ever have to make that choice, so I generally stay silent. But this strikes me as absolutely ridiculous. While not posting the actual names, there are answers to 34 questions for each abortion to be posted on-line. I assure you, I could identify most people in Oklahoma with their responses to 34 questions. How, in any leap of illogic, can the woman's education level really relate to the need for an abortion right now?
I don't particularly want to debate the right or wrong of abortion... I see this more as the intrusion of government into areas that can in no way be considered their business. Laws of this nature are becoming more common, more intrusive, and more draconian.
