Oakies From Oklahoma

Maybe a state, that has mistletoe as it's state flower, is not so strange after all. I can say this because I was raised in Broken Arrow, Oklahoma. Oklahoma has always had it right, when it comes to unborn human life. And they've done it again. 

Governor Brad Henry has signed into law SB 1103. This bill allows a woman to use force, if necessary, to protect her unborn child from attack. Under the Bill, a pregnant woman is legally justified in using deadly force, if she "reasonably believes an attacker is threatening her unborn child and the use of force or deadly force are immediately necessary to protect her unborn child." 

American's United for Life's Oklahoma state director, Melissa Treat, says the bill, the first of it's kind in the nation, was initiated because: "All too often pregnant women are victims of domestic violence, especially violence targeted towards the unborn child." She further states: "This bill clarifies that women who protect their child's life, by using force, are legally protected in Oklahoma." 

The Oakies have it right. Maybe more states should follow.
