#prochoice Fights Against Women Being Truly Informed

From Ms. Blog, "South Dakota Votes To Triple Abortion Wait Time"

"Under the guise of protecting and informing women"

Guise? Informing women of other options available to them is a guise? No, it's an opportunity to help women who are under pressure to abort.

During the new 72-hour wait, women seeking abortions would have to go to a pregnancy health center for information about “what education, counseling, and other assistance is available to help the pregnant mother keep and care for her child” along with “a private interview to discuss the circumstances that may subject her decision to coercion.”

As opposed to an anti-pregnancy health center like Planned Parenthood, where she is rushed through her abortion before she has time to consider viable alternatives. You know, like the baby that could be saved.

The bill, which the governor supports, defines a pregnancy help center in such a way that it is virtually impossible for a pro-choice organization to establish one.

Not impossible if they cared about alternatives to women other than abortion. They don't.

One of the highlights of the bill is in the first clause stating:

ENTITLED, An Act to establish certain legislative findings pertaining to the decision of a pregnant mother considering termination of her relationship with her child by an abortion …

This relationship they mention is between a full-grown, adult woman and a group of cells that does not have feelings or a brain."

A full-grown, adult woman? What about the teenagers for whom choicers advocate abortions with no parental consent? She took the adult(s) out of the equation.
