Reply #5: SoDak is a poor state because

[frogmarch]

the majority of voters there, being republicans, are too stupid to know whose fault it is that they're poor and keep voting the fascist dickweeds back into office.

I had an abortion in Rapid City before abortion was legalized in SoDak. My doctor in Deadwood, where my husband and I lived at the time with our three young kids, sent me to a RC gynocologist who performed abortions, because the Deadwood hospital was a Catholic establishment and wouldn't allow them. (Other doctors in the state performed abortions but most called them D and Cs.) At the Rapid City clinic where I had the abortion, anti-abortion groups picketed constantly, but there were always groups of pro-choice people there to hold them at bay and keep them out of the faces of women entering the clinic. These pro-choice lifeguards were amazing. (I was so impressed that I later became one.)

Abortion won't be stopped in South Dakota forever. If no doctors there will perform them anymore for fear of being fined and imprisoned, women seeking abortions will go to other states...or resort to other means to rid themselves of unwanted pregnancies.

Shame on anti-abortion supporters! Who the hell do they think they are that they can dictate what a woman can do with her body? What a bunch of arrogant morons.
