LOUISVILLE, Ky. (AP) — A federal judge in Kentucky has cautioned lawyers to watch their language in their bitter legal feud over abortion — this time over a lawsuit challenging two new state laws aimed at putting more restrictions on the procedure.
U.S. District Judge David J. Hale set a Friday hearing on a motion for a preliminary injunction requested by attorneys for EMW Women's Surgical Center in Louisville — the only abortion clinic in Kentucky. Attorneys for Republican Gov. Matt Bevin are defending the laws passed recently by the GOP-dominated legislature and signed by the governor. The clinic's attorneys argue both laws are unconstitutional.

The suit challenges laws to ban most abortions once a fetal heartbeat is detected, and to ban the procedure for women seeking to end pregnancies due to the gender, race or disability of the fetus. The judge temporarily blocked enforcement of both measures.
In defending the law to ban gender-, race- or disability-based abortions, attorneys for Bevin and the state's health and family services secretary said in an earlier court filing that plaintiffs "benignly" labeled it as a "reason ban."

"Yeah, my and my husband being black and all ... we're just afraid our child might also be black, so ... you know ... we decided to terminate, Doctor"
Gimme a friggin' break, they're just throwing that in there for appearances sake.
What'd be interesting is if a fetus being trans or gay could be determined genetically somehow ... would those also be on their little 'list' there?
little "list" indeed!!!!!
