Pre-Abortion Sonogram

On Tuesday February 1, 2012, Texas health officials began enforcing a new law that requires them to provide a pregnant woman who is seeking an abortion, with a sonogram of her embryo or fetus along with a full description of its development, before executing said abortion.
I have always been on the fence when it came to abortion.  I am Pro-life with a few exceptions to Pro-choice where intercourse was not consensual which resulted in conception.  BUT in other situations, I strongly believe that a person should take responsibility for their actions.  If you are responsible enough to have sex, you are responsible to live with the consequences of becoming pregnant. In these situations, abortion is just an easy way out. That is my opinion.
Regarding the law in Texas, I wonder if this law will be contested in the near future.  Though I agree with it 100% and a woman should know the nature in every aspect that she is pursuing, I am open minded enough to see that this could very possibly upset a lot of people.  Duress being the key here.
What do you think?
