Prohibiting The Abortion Of Gay Fetuses

Hmm...

WorldNetDaily - A Republican lawmaker in Maine has introduced a bill to prohibit abortions based on the sexual orientation of the unborn baby.

State Rep. Brian Duprey wants the Legislature to forbid a woman from ending a pregnancy because the fetus is homosexual.

He said the bill looks into the future in case scientists find what he described as a "homosexual gene."

"I have heard from women who told me that if they found out that they were carrying a child with the gay gene, then they would abort. I think this is wrong," said Duprey, who got the idea while listening to the Rush Limbaugh Show.


As someone who believes that all abortions should be illegal this is a no-brainer. The idea of a woman killing her unborn child because of its genetically inclined sexual orientation, or any other criteria like potential retardation or even the child's gender, is pretty offensive.

But then again abortion activists in this country seem to think that a woman killing her unborn child because she simply does not want it is just fine and dandy, why wouldn't they be fine with this as well?
