Actual text of the poll;Should women in Virginia be required by state law to undergo an ultrasound prior to an abortion?
Freeping your poll
Wouldn’t this be medically sound advice, before the MD starts any invasive procedure?
Required by Whom?
The Hospital?
The Doctor?
The Government?
It clearly says the “state”
I see what your saying.....it will be done by state law by what I would assume to be a trained person and because it would be required by state law that means taxpayer funded.
We are only for smaller government when then Liberals do it, but for our issues we should be able to use the power of government to force people to do as we wish
/ sarc - but unfortunately way too many Conservatives actually feel that way
I would think that abortions would routinely be done before an abortion, to determine gestational age and to see if a pregnancy is uterine or ectopic.
Of course the old school way of determining gestational age is to measure the height of the uterus in the abdomen.

Should women in Virginia be required by state law to undergo an ultrasound prior to an abortion?
YesNoNot sure
Thank you for participating in our poll. Here are the results so far:
Yes 49%
No 49%
Not sure 2%
Any government mandate, left or right, should be rejected.
I say yes. Too many women live with the emotional scars for having gotten an abortion. If for no other reason, for the possible prevention of the woman’s mental health later in life.
bttt
Yes. It sounds like a medically sound thing to do.
Government mandates all kinds of crap anyways
Wouldn’t it be malpractice not to?
“We are only for smaller government when then Liberals do it, but for our issues we should be able to use the power of government to force people to do as we wish

We are not anarchists like liberal scum try to portray us but firm believers in the smallest government possible. Life and death issues do occasionally need the brute force of government. Unfortunately right now, thanks to baby killing liberals, the unborn have no protection.
Truth!
Dumb question they already do undergo an ultrasound before abortion the question should be should they have to view it.
As part of the abortion procedure they already undergo an ultrasound so it is already paid for by the woman having it.it is a stupid question since they already get one....they should ask if she needs to view it....
