The abortion debate continues.
Quote:
The South Dakota House has passed a bill that would nearly ban all abortions in the state, ushering the issue to the state Senate.
Supporters are pushing the measure in hopes of drawing a legal challenge that will cause the US Supreme Court to reverse its 1973 decision legalizing abortion.
The bill banning all abortions in South Dakota was passed 47-to-22 in the House.
Amendments aimed at carving out exemptions for rape, incest and the health of women were rejected.
The bill does contain a loophole that allows abortions if women are in danger of dying. Doctors who do those abortions could not be prosecuted.

Personally, I am against abortion past a certain time. Generally, after 1 month I believe abortion should be illegal with some exceptions. I am 100% against partial birth aborthing which is basically killing a 6-9 month old baby and removing it.
I believe abortion should be used more often in third world countries. This may be the only way to solve the exploding population boom and poverty. Any other thoughts?
