[Originally posted on PoliticsTV.com in August 2006] Traveling through South Dakota on the PTV Roadtrip, we interviewed a few folks on the street about the upcoming voter referendum on the state's extremist anti-abortion ban. We spoke at length with one of the prominent voices in the public debate over the issue: Bill Fleming from Mount Blogmore.

Bill walks us through the back-story of the abortion law in South Dakota and how the ban has changed the political landscape of South Dakota.

  • Abortion is a profoundly personal decision that no woman makes lightly. Important life decisions like these should be between a woman, her family, God and her doctor -- but this law will put the ultimate decision in the hands of the government in virtually every instance.

    Vote no on Initiated Measure 11 -- and let families decide.

  • Wooo! Just goes to show that pro-life means pro-fetus in most cases. Pro-lifers only support life when it's in the womb... when it's out they couldn't care less about its quality of life or well-being.

  • I'm not calling anyone an idiot. You're the one doing that. I'm saying that the 'life begins at conception' argument is fallacious because, as I said, life begins long before that.

  • So what is YOUR point? Are you arguing that pro-lifers are idiots because what they're arguing should kinda also encompass that the sperm and egg is life too?

  • ...

    I think you misunderstood. That was my point. Scientifically, sperm and ova are alive, but no one in their right MIND would call ejaculation or menstruation murder.

  • So every ejaculation is murder? HA! Like I'm EVER going to believe that you don't masturbate. And even if you claim that you never masturbate and you ONLY have sex to conceive a child then what about the millions of sperm that don't make it to the egg. That's murder to you? And every period a woman has?

    HAHAHAHAHAHA! You're an idiot.

  • I don't think he's specifically trying to use that as an argument for why the law is bad... but it's true. Right now if this law were passed it would be unconstitutional because we HAVE Roe. vs. Wade and this law is in direct contradiction to that. But that's the point. They want to put this law through so someone will challenge it and they can take it up to the Supreme Court and see if they can overturn Roe vs. Wade. So it is purposely unconstitutional.

  • Pro choice NOT pro NO choice....Make a decision for YOUR SELF! Don't understand why there would even be a debate!
