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!

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.

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.

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.

House Bill 1191, sponsored by Rep. Matt McCaulley, says the legislature determined that based on the best scientific and medical evidence, life begins at fertilization If this is what the bill says, then it is also outlawing some forms of contraception like the pill.

Does anyone know what penalty this law provides for the principal perpetrator (the aborting woman)? I didn't see it mentioned in the article.

Bad timing. Very bad timing.

Wonderful news, may other states follow suit and also strike down homosexual "marriage" as well.

I have notice that in many states the lower house of the legislature is much more "conservative" than is the upper house. Is this also true in SD, where Democrats are now favored to control the U.S. House seat and both U.S. Senate seats this year? Sometimes a state House will pass something, knowing that the state Senate will kill it. Even the old Dirksen Amendment to restore school prayer used to pass the House with the 2/3 majority but was always blocked by "moderates" in the U.S. Senate from both parties. SD is very liberal when it comes to U.S. House and Senate; perhaps the conservatism there is limited to the state House. Also, is the governor there "conservative" enough to sign such legislation? He may veto on grounds that he does not want the state to go to the expense of defending the law in court.
