Da-KOH-tah morons

"HB 1215 bans all abortion, including in cases of rape and incest, including cases that threaten the health of the mother; the only exception is if the mother’s survival itself is at risk, and even in those instances the doctor must “make reasonable medical efforts under the circumstances to preserve both the life of the mother and the life of her unborn child.” Doctors caught performing abortions would be charged with a Class 5 felony, punishable by up to five years in prison." So reports Time magazine.

And Time is letting the drooling knuckle-draggers of Fargo fame off lightly -- yes, I know that Fargo is ND and not SD, but can you tell me the difference? Thought not. The point is this: we have our own far-right Taliban alive, well and voting in deep red state land. Consider the denial of rights involved in this Bill: American women will be forced to bear children donated to them by rapists and incest aficionado. then, of course, they will have to raise them, provide these bastards of violence and prurient deviance a home and care ... not to mention shoulder a financial burden for a minimum of 18 years.... For what exactly? So that a bunch of "religious" white men can feel better about themselves for promoting their archaic beliefs? And SHAME on any woman that supports this atrocity, either actively or passively (that would include allowing any slug that voted for this a place in their bed, marital or not, let alone touching her in any way).

Friends, put turbans on the heads of the SD legislators and you have bigotry and ignorance on a par with the mullahs and followers lately hiding in the mountains of Tora Bora or trying to smuggle themselves on a donkey over the border from Pakistan. And we went to war to prevent this sort of scum imposing their primitive beliefs on us. Perhaps it is time to declare a jihad against ignorance in our own country.
