Abortion is quite the topic. I do not agree with abortion in most cases.
There are however, specific cases, all to be handled individually, that
may require it. This article however has stricken a nerve with me. I am
upset with how Brownback is handling
the issue of abortion. Contraceptives are used for more than "preventing
pregnancy." There are women out there, myself included, that need the
birth control hormones for medical purposes. According to this bill, it
doesn't matter. And, if the pharmacist or physician disagrees with birth
control for religious reasons, they are allowed to turn away patients
seeking birth control. I understand that religious views influence much
of the decisions made in people's lives. But, at some point, especially
this one, the decision needs to be made for the good of the people and
also, looking at the future of our state as a whole. Look at how many
people are on state assistance and have many children? You, me, and
everyone else that pays taxes are supporting these people that keep
having children they can't afford to raise. Don't get me wrong, I think
state assistance is important and in many cases, quite beneficial to
those that need it for the right reasons. This bill, however, will
possibly increase costs of our state, putting us even more in debt. I
know I have probably stepped on a few toes by posting this, but when it
comes to politics, some people just shouldn't been in office.
here is one of the many articles covering his decision to sign this bill/act/ whatever it is.
