Way Off Topic- South Dakota Abortion Ban

Pretty much all women of my mother's generation, when abortions were
illegal, knew at least one woman who had had an abortion---even if they did
not know it specifically.

My mother had 2 illegal abortions in the the 1940s (she never developed any
cancer, by the way {those who continue to say that ABs cause BC}). She was a
respectable, moral, married woman who loved children.

These bans will cause a rise in illegal abortions and deaths. They will
cause more children to be born to those ill-prepared to take care of them
financially and emotionally.

Women have been ending unwanted pregnancies for millennia---safely or not.

This is a barbaric development. If I weren't reeling from this war and from
my husband's health needs, I'd be marching.
