topdawg tdr, your lies are legend. Tell us under which state or federal law is late-term abortion considered murder. And if you believe any death of a fetus is murder under your God's natural law then your God is the biggest mass murderer in history .. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5443340/.
Your blatant, out-and=out trolling is tedious. Maybe you need a vacation, eh?
I like this idea....how about you? Let's eliminate the rampant use of prescription Viagra to help solve the unwanted pregnancy problem in this country. Are you willing to to do your part and have your partner submit an affidavit as to your medical and not psychological problem for your impotence?
State Representative Sherry Jones (D-Nashville) wants to take E-D drugs off the list of drugs covered by the state employee health plan. She says the drugs could have dangerous side effects and men should be required to provide proof they know the risks and have undergone a stress test. Patients would also have to get a sex partner to back up their claims.
“We should show the same attention and love to men’s reproductive health as we do to women’s,” Turner told HuffPost. “And my bill does that.”
Specifically, Turner’s bill would require men to receive psychological counseling to verify that they have a medical reason for taking erectile dysfunction medications, such as Viagra, before they can legally obtain a prescription for it. It would also require doctors to inform men, in writing, about the potential risks of drugs like Viagra.
The bill borrows language directly from Ohio’s controversial “heartbeat bill,” which bans abortions after the fetal heartbeat can be detected — often before a woman even knows she’s pregnant. But Turner said her bill is not just an answer to the heartbeat bill; she has been outraged by number of bills and amendments over the past couple of years, including one recently proposed to ban physician assistants from placing or removing intrauterine devices (known as IUDs), a common form of birth control, based on the Republican sponsor’s moral opposition to that method of contraception.
Turner is inspired by female legislators across the country who have been countering anti-abortion and anti-contraception legislation with men’s health-focused measures that come with conditions, she said. Oklahoma Sen. Constance Johnson, also a Democrat, proposed a “spilled semen” amendment to her state’s “feel personhood” bill that would declare it an act against unborn children for men to waste sperm. Illinois state Rep. Kelly Cassidy, another Democrat, introduced an amendment to a state mandatory ultrasound bill that would require men to watch a graphic video about Viagra’s side effects before being able to receive a prescription for it. A bill filed by Virginia state Sen. Janet Howell (D), would require men to obtain a rectal exam before obtaining such a prescription.
In Wilmington, Del., City Councilwoman Loretta Walsh authored a resolution that declares “each ‘egg person’ and each ‘sperm person’ ... equal in the eyes of the government.”
Representatives of the Family Research Council, an anti-abortion organization, are not amused by the trend. “It sounds like they’re mocking pro-life bills,” said Jeanne Monahan, director of the council’s Center for Human Dignity. “I will say, having met quite a few women who profoundly regret their abortions, this is not a laughing matter.”
The Viagra bills are not comparable to the anti-abortion bills the Family Research Council are protesting, such as the mandatory ultrasound bill, because Viagra isn’t a major surgery, Monahan said.
“Abortion is not like having a wart removed,” she said. “More often than not, it’s an invasive surgery with real consequences, and I would think that most women want more rather than less information before having one.”
....If her bill sends a message to male legislators and injects some common sense into lawmaking, then Turner will be pleased with that outcome—but, for the record, she’s not joking at all, she said.
“I’m just as serious as a heart attack,” Turner said. “I’m serious about the potential side effects of Viagra. I’m as serious as my right-wing male colleagues who introduced bills to legislate women’s health. It’s ironic that when it come to women’s health people think that’s a serious matter, but when it comes to a man, they think we’re joking. I don’t think any of my sister legislators are joking.”
