What the ...frigging....frug'uck!

______________LINK TO ARTICLE

Some are arguing, in the comments, that the Tweet is completely misleading/ or that the article is innocuous in compare.

But the title of the U.S. News article is this

Indiana Governor Signs Bill Mandating Abortion Information

Seems pretty straight forward - the "Mandating" remark.

Furthermore, arguments that the article is diametric to the Tweet, also is - disingenuous. If anything, the actual sense of the article is worse. Doctors are being "mandated" to report a patient's history, to the state.

In what sense of the word is "Mandating" your private info,
- violation of your privacy By Law - a good thing?

.......................Some Comments say the Tweet is bogus

But the claim the Tweet is not even close - is what's bogus

From another article by "The HILL" the contention of the Tweet is corroborated.

Failures to report complications would result in a Class B misdemeanor, which are punishable by up to 180 days in jail and a fine of up to $1,000 in Indiana.
