Let me get this straight.... re: South Dakota.....

[RagAss]

If a man breaks into your home, ties you up and rapes your wife, you both need to sit around for 9 months and have his child???

How fucked in the brains are these people anyway?

[htuttle]

1. Either that, or go to North Dakota

[ewagner]

Well, no....

according to that one State Senator, an abortion MIGHT be allowed if:

*** Your wife was a teenager
*** Your wife was a virgin
*** Your wife is a Christian
*** She was also "brutally sodomized".

see?????

Perfectly reasonable :sarcasm:

[Deja Q]

9. Brutally spewing a load into the WRONG ORIFICE is grounds for abortion?!

:eyes:

Okay, HOW do the lil' tadpoles swim from either of those two, alternative but popular, orifices to get the victim pregnant?! I can fathom one way, but I'm not going into the gross details, sorry...

Isn't rape a crime against nature?! And one, legal, definition OF sodomy is "A crime against nature".

The law renders itself useless. Much like too many other laws to count.

[entanglement]

26. Well, I guess we just have to be thankful for the fact

that he doesn't require her to be white as well



:sarcasm:

[TallahasseeGrannie]

29. Wait a minute

if my understanding of anatomy is correct, sodomy is unlikely to result in pregnancy.

I think this state senator got his jollies from thinking up these scenarios.

[ewagner]

30. see, somebody else caught on n't

[The_Casual_Observer]

2. What would a SD Assemblyman do if it happened to their daughter

or wife?

[still_one]

6. They would go out of state and have it done of course

or use the morning after pill

[Hippo_Tron]

20. How do you turn a fundie pro-choice really fast?

Tell them their daughter is pregnant and that the father is black.

[still_one]

3. If you can get a prescription you can use the morning after pill

The problem is the victims are mostly going to be poor and not know what options they have

This is not only anti-women, but also anti-poor legislation

[tsuki]

7. No, you can't. The morning after pill is abortion also. n/t

[Canadiana]

11. WOAH

They are not banning the morning after pill too...are they???

[Skittles]

31. here ya go

even if it isn't banned, nothing stops these sanctimonious bastards from saying IT'S AGAINST MY MORAL BELIEFS http://www.columbusdispatch.com/news-story.php?story=dispatch/2006/03/13/20060313-A1-02.html

[still_one]

12. believe it or NOT, that is NOT illegal in South Dakota

you just have to find a doctor to write the prescription, and a pharmacist to fill it

That is what the govenor's office of South Dakota told me when I called, and told them what a backward state they were

[tsuki]

14. One wonders, can you find a doctor who will prescribe?

With the way that pharmacists are opting out, even if you could find a doctor, it may not matter.

[Generic Other]

21. It's not possible to get a doctor's appointment the "morning after"

so that takes care of this angle! Are we really that dumb?

[abluelady]

15. Are you being sarcastic?

It isn't an abortion. It is a contraceptive. If you're pregnant, nothing will happen, but if the embryo hasn't implanted yet, which means you're not pregnant, that will be prevented.

[Canadiana]

16. BUT LIFE BEGINS AT CONCEPTION!

Technically, to some, emergency contraception is abortion. The egg is fertilized...then forced out of the body.

[abluelady]

24. It really is "technical" not scientific.

[Warpy]

25. 'Scuse me, but that is DEAD WRONG

If taken early enough in the cycle, the morning after pill suppresses ovulation. No ovum, no fertilization.

If taken after the follicle has produced an ovum and the rapist manages to fertilize it, the drug pervents implantation.

In either case, there is no implantation, no pregnancy, and (listen carefully) no abortion.

The morning after pill prevents abortion, get it?

In any case, I wonder why the reproductive slavery crowd always has to resort to BIG FAT LIES to tell their sheep.

Neither birth control pills nor the morning after pills cause abortion. Both of the prevent abortion.

[tsuki]

4. Don't you get it? It was an act of God. /sarcasm not off

[RagAss]

5. sorry folks ... but what are we waiting for ?.....Death camps?

[SongOfTheRayne]

10. We already have those.

They're called terrorist detainment centers. The people don't get trials and they're doing things that they feel neccesary to hide from the U.N. As I say, "If you're not horrified, you're not paying attention."

[slackmaster]

8. You can go to any other state, or Canada, for an abortion

:eyes:

How fucked in the brains are these people anyway?

Severely.

[still_one]

13. but the poor and the disenfranchised are the ones who are not

that mobile

[slackmaster]

17. Who wants a world with a shortage of low-wage workers anyway?

:argh:

[Iris]

18. Good way to put it.

Seriously. I wonder this same thing all the time. Ok. A woman is forced to give birth to a rapist's child, but in all liklihood, it could end up causing the death of her marriage, at least on some level.

[RagAss]

19. not to mention the perpetuation of the genetic seed of a rapist....

[slackmaster]

23. Let's not go eugenic here

I do understand the sentiment.

[Iris]

27. Good point, slackmaster.

[benddem]

22. besides that

when the baby is born and the rapist is out of jail (if that even happens in SD) you have to give him visitation rights. SICK SICK SICK
:puke: :puke: :puke:

[Iris]

28. Actually, I think it's written into the law somehow that the (convicted)

rapist would not have parental rights.
