text: what do you think of sd's ban of all abortions? keep in mind it doesn't even allow abortions in cases of rape or incest i think it is a travesty. i don't understand and (never will) why people just assume this is about saving lives. it's about rights of women. people are so quick to jump on the bandwagon to take rights away from women. rights that women had to fight tooth and nail for. if this was a right given to men i doubt we would even be discussing this.a woman should not be forced by the government to carry a pregnancy to term. especially not if she was raped. imagine the 15 year old girl raped by her father who gets pregnant. there are already thousands(or more) children born every year to families who do not want them. they are abused and neglected.why is it better to have them born into that? i think it will be a sad sad day when women lose their rights under roe vs. wade. i heard on the news that south dakota is planning on it being sent to the supreme court so that roe can be challenged. south dakota only has 1 abortion clinic to begin with. i think its absolutely horrible that men lawmakers force what rights women are allowed to have. its our bodies. men can walk away from a pregnancy. women should at least be able to have the same option.whether or not you are against abortion,please don't let women lose their rights.i don't like abortion but we are all forced to make hard decisions we don't want to make.reversing roe vs.wade will cause women to revert to back-alley abortions using coat hangers and such causing injury to women and death. all because law makers have to be right.sad indeed.to alayna:reverting to back-alley abortions is not done out of stupidity. it is done out of desperation. you probably have never been in a horribly desperate situation.as a survivor of domestic abuse sometimes you have no other choice. had i gotten pregnant by my abuser, i would have rather aborted then let my abuser abuse my child. you speak from an uneducated and judgemental point of view.how can you not see this as women losing rights? losing rights (regardless of what you think of those rights)is horrible.and really how many men want the baby that the woman aborts? i am sure it is a small small minority especially when compared with the number of dead beat dads.
