Rapists' rights in South Dakota.

Let's be as simple and as brutal as we can about what South Dakota did today. One all too real example - Here goes: If you are a woman, and are raped, and become pregnant, after July 1 - YOU MAY NOT TERMINATE THE PREGNANCY in South Dakota.

That is the law.

This is the world according to the far Right. This is the world the far right wants us to live in.

There are many, many reasons why abortion must remain legal. I don't write tonight to argue them all. I write to render clearly one of the results of this law. If you are raped the rights of rapists' SPERM now trump you, as a victim. It is as simple as that.

All thinking people, ( but I hope that parents with daughters of any age realize what this law means) should be outraged. Direct the outrage at those who wrote, voted for, and believe in this law.

It sickens me to think of it but I want a Pro-choice candidate to run an ad with a father whose daughter was raped.

The far Right is relentless, ruthless, and dangerous. Believe it. What the governor of South Dakota did today was thoughtless and cold blooded.
