Where Steve talks about something he barely understands...

South Dakota has just passed an abortion ban in all cases (including rape or incest) until the mother's life (not health) is in danger. This means many things to me.

First, if I ever get another girlfriend, we are never going to South Dakota where the state thinks they own her uterus. (Unless she has a reason she wishes to go since I don't like confrontation :)

Second, it appears that fathers who rape their daughters have more rights than their abused child. Sounds like good Christian values to me.

Third, only the doctors performing the abortion was punished by up to 5 years in jail. Why aren't the mothers being punished as well? If I hire a hitman to kill someone and he succeeds, I would go to jail just like the hitman if we are caught. Why are anti-choice persons not punishing the mothers?

Forth, if life starts at conception like many anti-choicers claim, why don't we investigate the nearly 60% of naturally occurring miscarriages to confirm that really were naturally occurring?

Fifth, since abortion is now illegal in South Dakota, does the state have the right to test any women trying to leave the state to determine if they are pregnant and prevent them from leaving in case they get an abortion in another state? (I hate run on sentences like that.)

Sixth, if you support the rape/incest exception, when does it go into effect? When a women claims she was raped or when we have a conviction? If the former, fine. If the later, then you don't really support the exception since most cases would not complete before the mother gives birth.

Finally, all the clinics helping women become pregnant, are they now illegal since they kill more embryos than just about anyone else?

Does anyone have the answers to my questions above?
