Reply #43: Virginia law should therefore be rewritten as it defines "fetal death." [View All]

I did look at the list and considered the things that women are required to report as being overly intrusive, especially the "Hispanic" reference. Are they implying that Hispanics are more prone to stillborns or to abandoning newborns?

I resist any governance of private matters which adds to the growing database on us as citizens, whether male or female. Unfortunately, women do indeed bear the brunt of intrusion of privacy and specifically in the realm of our reproductive rights.

At the very least, though, let's hope this particular issue is resolved wherein "fetal death" becomes much more limited in scope and in such a manner as it does justice to the abandoned newborns who die, those newborns for whom the Chesapeake Police Department are looking to find some justice. I am still greatly concerned about that factor and it should be addressed without violating the rights of women and/or their partners.
