An Oklahoma judge on Wednesday struck down the state's law requiring women seeking abortions to have an ultrasound image placed in front of them and to listen to a detailed description of the fetus before the procedure.

District Judge Bryan Dixon ruled the statute passed by the Oklahoma Legislature in 2010 is an unconstitutional special law, and is can't be enforced because it addresses only patients, physicians and sonographers dealing with abortions without addressing other medical care.

Ned Stark would find this decision shameful. You should always look the person in the eye before you execute them.

Ned Stark was many things, but being a make the bitch drink moon tea pussy is not one of them. He'd wield the coat hanger himself if he ordered an abortion.

This is probably a better case than was made by the OK legislature.

i don't really know about unconstitutional (i mean the reasoning used there seems rather poor).. but i gotta say that law and others like it are pretty damned stupid, regardless.
