AP Wire | 02/11/2005 | House panel approves measure to make abortion a felony
BRAD PERRIELLOPIERRE, S.D. – Abortion should be a crime in South Dakota if states are given the right to outlaw the medical procedure, a House panel recommended Friday.
The State Affairs Committee unanimously approved HB1249, which would make it a felony to do abortions if Roe v. Wade, the 1973 U.S. Supreme Court decision legalizing abortion, is overturned. The bill would allow exceptions in cases where a pregnant woman’s life is at risk.
Those who do abortions could face up to two years in prison and a $2,000 fine.
I guess calling murder a felony is a good place to start. Kudos to South Dakota for doing something to end the baby-murder-factory that is the abortion industry in this country.
