God bless South Dakota. Keep forcing the courts to strike it down, and make sure the judges see the 4D ultrasound images every step of the way. The judges owe those children sentenced to death the courtesy of at least looking them in the eye before their execution.

"The bill requires physicians to make every effort to preserve the life of both the mother and her unborn child."

So that means that it does not outlaw abortions, just unnecessary ones.

This is extraordinarily poor timing. First of all, an injunction from a Federal court will follow almost immediately. Not one, I say again, not one innocent life will be saved. Secondly, at a time when conservatives and Republicans are finally starting to gain some ground on social issues (e.g. homosexual marriage, Pledge of Allegiance/Boy Scout banning and TV nudity and violence), this comes along so that the Democrats can show the women of America how "under threat" their "reproductive"/abortion rights are. Ideologically wonderful, but in practical terms: STUPID, STUPID, STUPID!

Who would not gladly stipulate all of these in trade for outlawing abortion?

In case anyone is interested in the teaching of the Catholic Church on this matter: It is the duty of every legislature to pass a law outlawing abortion, and imposing a penalty for performing abortions, one that is commensurate with the crime of homicide. It is also the duty of every governor and D.A. to enforce such laws. It is also the duty of every police officer to behave in a manner that acknowledges that people are murdered in abortion clinics--i.e., it is a crime for a governor, judge, a prosecutor, or a police officer to arrest or impede or frustrate efforts by citizens to protect innocent life that is in peril.

All decisions by any court, and all acts by any legislature, which have as their purpose marking out some segment of the human population as not entitled to protection from homicide, are null. The duties of all public officials, whether legislators, executives, or judges, are unaffected by any law, court order, or judicial decision, which purports to authorize the commission of homicide.

The fact that no bishop in the United States has said anything resembling the above since April 1973 does not alter the fact that this is the moral law.

Can these ghouls look at these photos and claim not to know that it's a human life? </ rhetorical question>

Realistically, if this passes, the pro-infanticide crowd will have a lawsuit barring implementation signed by one of their per judges before the ink is dry.

Preach it brother! It's a Nuremburg thing. Can anyone see these ultrasounds and claim ignorance?

Anything to get this issue into the newspapers and before the ignorant. 4D, 4D, 4D. If our side can just get "4D" and "google" into the same newspaper article, it will be a huge victory.

I'm very pleased to hear that this passed! It's a good message to send that there are still states that are poised to outlaw such an abhorrent practice as abortion.

One way to ensure that the Republican party loses the gains it has made...

I'm willing to trade that to save the lives of 1.3 million unborn children every year.
