In October 2001, Democrat Senator Walter Campbell issued the Scarlet Letter Law...A law that stated that all Florida women that were wanting to put their child up for adoption would have to publically state their names, age , race, sex, and all their sexual partners in the newpaper...the add would run once a week for four weeks straight...this was was only effective for 18 months..However, is trying to become reeenacted again...
This law would alos apply to all rape victims as well...
Do u believe that it would possibly increase the number of abortions performed?
Does it violate the privacy issue??
Whats next from the Govermant are they going to have everyone that is HIV positive publically state their names too with all their sexual partners...
This could be done in a better way without humiliating the woman d u agree?

It will either increase abortions or people will have kids they are not ready for..those kids will be abused, or neglected and probably end up in foster care. I am not doubting what you say, I just don't see how that passed in the first place. People's sexual life is their business and has nothing to do with giving a child a good future life. It's hard enough for a women to give a child up for adoption without having to worry about everyone in the world knowing.

I think that it will violate our privacy and they were idiiots for passing that in the first place. I completely agree that they should find another way to do that.

Somehow I doubt your source.
That is not legal (violating other laws) and would certainly violate private adoption proceedings.
