I hate this state sometimes.
I'm somewhat familiar with the case that spurred the creation of this bill. What that case indicated to me was that we need to make abortion more available and more affordable so that young women aren't so desperate that they're willing to pay some thug to beat them in an attempt to abort the baby.
