SD – Parental rights to rapists?
3 MarHere’s the text of the South Dakota abortion ban. And the chronology of it is here.
The text of the affected statutes:
3423A Performance of Abortions
22-17 Unauthorized Abortion.
And regardless of the mania sweeping the blogs right now, I see NO express granting of parental rights to rapists. Folks, we don’t serve our cause by looking like raving maniacs. This is, at best, nothing more than someone’s opinion on possible side affects of this new law. Perhaps this could happen, perhaps it won’t.
Maybe I’m paranoid, but it appears I’m not alone
2 MarIn late January Kellogg, Brown and Root (KBR), a subsidiary of Halliburton, was awarded a contract valued at up to $385 million to build detention centers.
Another state tries to pass abortion ban
A Mississippi House committee approved a ban on abortions Tuesday, allowing an exception only in cases where the mother’s health is endangered.
The bill, which heads to the full House for a vote, makes Mississippi the second state in the nation to consider an abortion ban.
