Is this it?

These threads make me SICK. They way that people comment about lives of babies like a burden, a bother. It is disgusting and SAD. The rape/incest argument is so rediculous. That isn't the issue. Millions of babies are killed-not because women have been raped, but because of an unplanned pregancy. I wish people would claim responsibility for their actions. Rape and incest victims are few and far between in this issue-- and with reguard to that, two wrongs don't make a right. That child is being punished for someone elses crime--talk about an innocent victim of crime. Now with abortion of a child conceived of rape now makes two vicitms. That isn't a solution.

And allowing a woman to be hacked up by some back-street butcher makes me SICK!

As far as going to the state next door...yeah, that's real practical for everyone...oh brother.

I have heard of people marrying a person and moving to another country, so driving to another state for an abortion shouldn't be that big of a problem.

I was going to stay out of this, but this statement made ME sick. Have you ever been raped? Do you know what that feels like? Then throw a pregnancy as a result on top of that feeling? Rape and incest victims are not as few and far between as you'd like to think. I know most people won't talk about it, but I can guarantee there is at least one person in this forum that has been raped. Whether it be date rape or rape by a stranger... it's more common than you think.

I'm a mother of 2 and am pregnant with my third child... I've had 2 miscarriages, one of them resulting in the loss of a tube and me almost bleeding to death. However, I support a woman's right to chose whether or not she has an abortion.

There are so many situations that you obviously have not even dreamed out that would influence a decision to have an abortion. If it's not you or your decision, you have no right to judge those who make the decision.

When I was 20 my girlfreind got pregnant because we were irresponsible,after discussing the matter with a counselor,she described the abortion procedure it discusted us both and we both left in tears! we adopted and it worked out fine and our consious was left intact, PSSSSSSST google:abortion pictures! Dont be scared!

Fine, that was your DECISION...you were allowed to make that choice. So should others be allowed.

PSSSSST, Google illegal abortion procedures

The folks who are financially able to marry people from other countries are not generally the same folks who can't afford to drive to another state for an abortion. False comparison.

I bet if they were giving out free lottery tickets and beer in the next state they would find a way to get there. LOL

Who is "they"? What's this image you have of someone who has an abortion???

I'm glad you think it's so funny.

I hope you never know or love someone who has this happen to them.

It is also not a solution to call a victim of rape or incest who aborts an embryo a murderess. Rape victims already have enough other issues to deal with.

Also, an embryo is NOT a baby NOR a child. It's also NOT a fetus. Check your biology book for more details...

True. Given the price of an abortion, most people can't afford to have one in their own state let alone travel to the next state. Also, if all the other states that are trying to ban abortion will succeed then crossing a state border will not be enough anymore putting an even higher tag on a basic right.

And when a woman then commits suicide because the child in her womb is causing her to relive the torment of being raped? Then what? The child didn't live anyway and now neither did the woman. I am in no means implying that I think that abortion is the right solution, and it is in my opinion used too often by people who choose to not be responsible for their actions, but that doesn't mean that there are not times when abortion is a better solution than the alternative.

Hopefully, we have raised our daughter to not be stupid enough to have an unwanted pregnancy. I'm not totally against abortion, but there is NO constitional right to have one. It should be a state's decision to place whatever restrictions they deem necessary on having one.

what if your daughter is raped and then has an unwanted pregnancy? Would she be "Stupid" then?

I'm glad I don't live in South Dakota. I'm pro-choice, and always will be. Making abortion illegal would be risking many women's lives.

You mean you are pro abortion? Say it the way it is. If you really need to get one go to the state next door!

I find it unbelievable that the so-called "pro-lifers" equate pro-CHOICE with pro-ABORTION. Is it not conceivable that an individual would CHOOSE to never consider an abortion for themselves but would not impose their decision on another????

That is what I did! NEVER will I have an abortion. Its is so sad. I don't know where I stand with the whole rape issue... it's still abortion and an innocent baby still suffers. I think adoption no matter what.

Birth control never fails huh?
