Way to go South Dakota! SD's governor has just signed into law a bill passed by South Dakota's legislature that bans abortions in that state unless the mother's life is in danger. Of course the courts are going to start a fight over how this in "unconstitutional" while acting unconstitutional. The courts in America were meant to uphold the laws passed by the federal and state governments not overturn them...so while a judge declares this new law "unconstitutional" remember that if Jefferson or Madison or Hamilton were still alive they would seek to have that judge removed from office...for overstepping his lawful and intended bounds.

Yes, I am glad to hear it as well. Unfortunately, the courts will not let it stand. I read in Newsweek that some antiabortion groups are opposing this bill, because they feel it moves too fast by taking on Roe v. Wade instead of slowly dismantling the ruling bit by bit. Interesting thought anyway.
