It's cruel and unusual punishment to castrate serial rapists and child molesters.
But it is ok to force a woman making the difficult desision to have an abortion to look at ultrasound photos of her fetus or, if she turns her head, listen to a detailed description of it. Even in cases of rape and incest.
It breaks my heart to know that these women are being subjected to increased pain and punishment for a decision that will already weigh on them for the rest of thier lives. I know not all of them choose not to look. And the article said that none of them chose differently having seen.
But I still maintain that the choice to have a child should be a choice. And that no one should be punished for choosing not to.
