In the National Review Online this moring, columnist and editor-at-large Jonah Goldberg writes a ruminating piece about, well, you just have to read it.
Maine State Rep. Brian Duprey introduced an unusual piece of legislation this month. It’s a pro-life bill designed to tighten protections for the unborn. That’s not the unusual part. That happens all the time. The interesting part is that Duprey’s bill is designed to protect gay fetuses.
Rep. Duprey told a local paper, The Magic City Morning Star, that he’d been listening to Rush Limbaugh’s radio show when Limbaugh commented that if scientists ever located the genetic cause for homosexuality – the so-called “gay gene” – then homosexuals would become pro-life “overnight.”
“Most people would agree that to kill someone just because that person might be gay would constitute a hate crime,” Duprey said. “I have heard from women who told me that if they found out that they were carrying a child with the gay gene, then they would abort. I think this is wrong. Those unborn children should be protected.” That’s why he introduced LD 908, “An Act to Protect Homosexuals from Discrimination.”
