ANAHEIM, Calif. (Reuters) - Walt Disney Co Chief Executive Bob Iger told Reuters on Wednesday it would be very difficult for the media company to keep filming in Georgia if a new abortion law takes effect because many people will not want to work in the U.S. state.

Agreed. They should buy out businesses and shut them down.

Republicans enter state office, get a commanding majority, and instead of using their power to actually govern they focus on passing these bizarre unpopular social conservative laws that inevitably force businesses to leave the state and cause voters to turn against them

North Carolina comes to mind with that idiotic bathroom bill a few years ago

Its true. As much as they scream about gun control they havent come out and boycotted gun friendly states. But you take away someones ability to kill an unborn child and they act like the whole world is going to crash.

Even if it is. So what? Literally no one ever has a right to someone else's body. No matter how innocent they are or how much someone originally volunteered.

I'm fairly certain actors will show up to wherever they're paid to shoot at.

If Disney doesnt film in georgia or anywhere else it's because they, or the director doesnt want to.

Right. He's saying that he knows people would be uncomfortable so they wouldn't want to force them into that situation.

Yeah well, I'll believe it when I see it. I dont know much about it but if a lot of filming is happening a large reason is probably that it's cheaper. So we'll see just how much money talks.

This isn't the first time Disney swung its big dick of capitalism at Georgia over legislation. They did the same thing a couple of years ago with bathroom laws that eventually got vetoed.

Im not liberal but this is just logical. Gun rights is rightfully controversial with many arguments for both sides. Abortion only has an emotional DER CHLDRN which only uneducated imbeciles truly think, ignoring the myriad of reasons why abortion is beneficial. Abortion has been solved long ago. Indeed, its the most uneducated, most backwater states that are trying to regress with these laws.

When states like New York and politicians like Hilary Clinton are pushing for abortions at any stage of pregnancy including up to 9 months, then no the abortion problem hasn't been solved. Having an abortion at 5 or 6 months (when the child is viable outside of the womb) is literally murder no matter how you look at it.

**** em. Hollywood can kick rocks. A state where they criminalize people sleeping in their own vehicles but its A-OK to step over them in the streets has ZERO moral high ground to look down from. Theres places in California where there is literal human waste running down the streets and people live in that. Nobody wants to hear anything they have to say.

yep. our shitty republican secretary of state, now governor, has been cheating minorities for years with his voter suppression laws. it's things like this and the abortion law that make me hate conservatives. first you not only screw over the majority of your constituents to pander to your base, but you also shoot yourself in the foot to hurt them even MORE. and unfortunately, it affects those in urban areas like savannah or atlanta more than people out in the cornfields, but those in urban settings were voting D anyway.

I can't imagine many people being happy with this, but then again, it's not like disney was filming the avengers out on a cow pasture in lagrange or something. the only people it's going to affect and piss off are those who saw revenue from all the people and services required when filming blockbusters. and again, those are the ones in the city.

Banning abortion doesn't take away someone's ability to kill an unborn child. It just prompts people who will get abortions to resort to things like poisoning themselves or otherwise harming themselves to do it instead of doing it in a way that's safe for the mother.

i don't know the total disney has gotten, but I can say we do give huge tax credits in Georgia. hell, you get 10% for just including the logo in the credits. I don't even think the state breaks even with these credits, but it provides such a huge boost to the local economies that it would be devastating if Hollywood decided "na fuck georgia, we out".

Why does the murder of innocent children bother me? Is this a joke question?
The traumatizing experience of the woman? The devaluing of human life? Are these not issues? Who decided that this should even be a thing to be contemplated? If you don't want to have children, be careful. I can concede rape victims, even though I think it's not 100% justified, it's easy to comprehend why you'd do that.

Abortion isnt murder.

Also just because you use birth control, doesnt mean you wont have a baby. You can still get pregnant while being responsible, so stop being irresponsible! isnt a valid argument.
