Responding to Michael J. Fox

Responding to Michael J. Fox

The State of Missouri has a ballot measure called "Amendment 2" that will create a constitutional right to conduct human cloning should it pass. Proponents of the measure have brought in Michael J. Fox to sell the initiative to Missourians. As expected, Fox’s appearance is meant to emotionally charge voters to vote in favor of this dangerous law.
As the ad above demonstrates, pro-lifers are responding, hoping the good people of Missouri will see through the emotive arguments of cloning proponents.

So rather than an honest discussion about the ethics of certain scientific research and the government's role in funding such research, the issue is compressed into advertisements that accuse legislators of being unconcerned about a little girl diagnosed with diabetes and include heartfelt pleas by Michael J. Fox. - Law and Life Project
