Why does this not surprise me?

Scott Peterson will most likely be charged with double homicide -- for the murders of both his wife Laci and their unborn son, Connor. NOW doesn't like this at all.

Fetal homicide laws have been opposed by some pro-choice organizations that fear they will undermine a woman's right to choose an abortion, even though the statues exempt legal abortions.

After watching news reports of Peterson's arrest, Stark expressed concern with the tone of the coverage.

"There's something about this that bothers me a little bit," Stark said. "Was it born, or was it unborn? If it was unborn, then I can't see charging (Peterson) with a double-murder." [...]

"He was wanted and expected, and (Laci Peterson) had a name for him, but if he wasn't born, he wasn't born. It sets a kind of precedent," Stark said, adding that the issue was "just something I've been ruminating on."

All they care about is abortion.

Update: Kevin McGehee has also blogged about this article and makes a great point about the media.

Update 2: NOW is distancing itself from the statements of the Morris County chapter president.
