The governor of South Dakota may soon sign into law a bill that would end abortions in that state other than when the pregnancy would endanger the mother's life, even in cases of rape or incest .Does this proposed law stand a chance of being upheld , or will the SCOTUS crush it like a bug ? Should there be an exemption for rape or incest as well and would it improve the bill's chances of surviving if it were added ?
Your thoughts ?

RE: Would this proposed law stand a chance against the SCOTUS ?
I have my doubts. I really doubt it will ever even make it to the Supreme Court, since the law in this area is already developed. The boundaries are already set. If the Supreme Court does hear the case, my doubts will have begun on how "conservative" the new justices really are.
And when will these freaking reporters learn that Roe v. Wade is no longer the law.[:@]

RE: Would this proposed law stand a chance against the SCOTUS ?
I think it would stand a chance. I do believe that an exception for the life of the mother is in this bill, and that has been a major sticking point in the SCOTUS in the past. Plus, if the law stands up to other legal scrutiny, if it gets to the SCOTUS, I'd bet on Justice Alito voting to uphold it.
Plus, there's been all sorts of speculation about Justice John Paul Stevens and his continued service on the SCOTUS. It was a week or so ago that a piece showed up on National Register's website, saying something to the effect that JPS had decided to retire at the end of the current term, in June. The piece went on to say that JPS was very impressed by the legal knowledge and scholarship of both Chief Justice John Roberts and Associate Justice Sam Alito, and he did not feel that his retirement would shift the SCOTUS to the right.

It will never pass... There is too much money in killing babies. The ACLU, and other left wacko groups are not going to let this pass... It will be worse than the Muslim catoons...

Does this law eliminate the drugs a woman is given after being raped?
If a child is raped by her father at let's say 12 or 13 she will be forced to have the baby? Now that's sounds like a great law.

Okey dokey.
Thats the dumbest statement I've ever heard... How often does that happen??? And of course something should be done in that case... Have you ever heard of adoption? They need to Castrate the scum, that hurt children,or rape anyone for that matter.The baby killers love to use that statement, come on, you can come up with something better than that to justify killing an unborn child... And No Charliep I didn't get that from Falwell, even though he and25 million others believe asI do...
RE: Would this proposed law stand a chance against the SCOTUS ?
Will it hold up? I guess we'll see if the politics of the Supreme Court have swung, and the liberals' worst fears (and the conservatives' wildest dreams) are realized, won't we?
I personally think the law would be a great law. Should provisions be included for rape or incest? I don't think so. I don't doubt that there would be instances where the mother couldn't bear to mother a child born of an attacker, but there is adoption for scenarios such as those.
I simply cannot justify abortion in cases of rape or incest because my belief is that abortion is murder. That's why I am so opposed to abortion. Murder is murder, regardless of why it is committed, and the oft-used saying "two wrongs don't make a right" comes to mind here.

You must not read some of your own posts." It will be worse than the Muslim catoons..." that's right up there for one of the dumbest,I'm sure Icould find some more with out too much trouble. You want to play insults, I'm game.BTW you never answered did you take the study at home course Fawell offers or did you you actually go to the big school,and kiss his feet?
You buy his new CD God hates fags and he showed how bad on 9/11?
I don't care how often it happens there should be something in the law about it.

No please explain the concept old intelligent one.
Avictim of rape or incest shouldn't be made to carry a child you don'tlike that too bad,it's their buisness.

I don't think they are 25 million that believe there should be absolutely no exceptions when it comes to abortion.
As far as your baby killer lable goes,stick it in your hat.

What I am mainly talking about is the pill a women is given after she is raped, that won't allow the fertilized egg to implant in the womb.
I understand that many here would also outlaw this and many forms of the "pill."
If a innocent child is being raped by a parent/sibling I can understand her not wanting to have to carry the child, if she wants to give it up for adoption fine but I could understand an abortion under these circumstances.
