South Dakota Blues

Okay, am I the only person incensed about the gall of the entire South Dakota state government to make it a felony to provide abortion services? Can we say "to hell with the supreme court?" everyone? Let me guess. . .just about the entire state government is probably male too!

Here's an idea to really make abortion pointless. Instead of spending all this money and energy on fighting Roe vs. Wade why don't we spend that money on teaching people how not to get pregnant? That would really be a big help, no unwanted pregnancies and no emotional trauma dealing with the after effects of an abortion. I'm not just talking about teaching girls how to use birth control, but teaching young men how to use a condom properly.

Do you realize that more than half of PUBLIC SCHOOLS offer no resources for students to learn the facts about birth control? Or how about this, 88% of teens who take abstinence pledges still engage in premarital sex and most of those don't use protection? These kids have the same rate of contraction for STDs as the national average as opposed to students who have detailed and comprehensive sexual education do not engage in sex any earlier and are much more likely to use protection.
Oh yes, and lets not forget that the U.S. has the highest teen pregnancy rate of any developed nation.

And people think banning abortion is the solution?

It is called education people!
