From a letter to the Editor re. Fl. Legislator's HB1127 (requiring ultrasounds before abortions) in the Palm Beach Post (Florida) dtd 5/13/11
"How dare you force me to do something that should purely be a decision between me and my doctor?"
Representative James Grant R-Tampa stated before the Legislature vote, "are we so terrified that a woman may look at this (the ultrasound) and discover that she really does believe in life?"
"No, according to the writer...."I was terrified that I might break down even worse than I already had. Instead of simply crying......I might have started shrieking at being forced by you and your clueless brethren to see an image of my grossly deformed fetus......"
