New Orleans Saints tight end Benjamin Watson has always been outspoken about his pro-life Christian values. In the wake of the recently shot down Virginia HB 2491, which would have allowed a mother to request an abortion even as she is showing signs of going into labor, the father of five took to social media to share his thoughts with Gov. Ralph Northam.

Well said, Mr. Watson. Huzzah!
There is God’s grace and righteous men everywhere. I guess we just have to look
The responsibility of the powerful is promote the good, and cut-off and limit the bad. NFL management stupidly seems to do the opposite.
Governor should be gone after statements like that.
Thanks for sharing this (or I probably would never have known about it).
VA Gov is one term. He has nothing to lose.
Snowflakes will be triggered by this fine example of hate speech.
After Northam’s comments: he should be made comfortable and then the people of Va. should decide whether to end his political career or not.
Yes. But he just started his term so he will be around for several years.

It is sad when a football professional has more moral integrity than a Bishop of The Catholic religion.
I'll contact my reps.

By the way, Virginia law already allows 3rd trimester abortions and infanticide.
The bill sponsored by Virginia House of Delegates member Kathy Tran would ease the process of 3rd trimester abortions by reducing the doctor shopping from three to one (or two?) for signatures regarding the, uhmm, “health of the mother.”
This makes me wonder if New York law already allowed 3rd trimester abortions prior to the recent change which received so much publicity.
I suspect that most states already allow 3rd trimester abortions, using the fiction of “health of the mother” as the pretense. Can somebody enlighten me/us?
Cue the obnoxious, homophobic jokes about tight ends from enraged liberals.
Awesome!
VA Gov Northam tweet: “I have devoted my life to caring for children and any insinuation otherwise is shameful and disgusting.”
Ben Watson responded: “Children in utero deserve equal devotion Governor”
Ralph Northam has received nearly $2 million from Planned Parenthood since 2013.
He has a lot more to lose than elected office for promoting such a thing...especially as a doctor.
Have to imagine the guy lost his heart many years ago.
We need him in office on our team!
