[QUOTE]Originally posted by Zefram: [QB] [QUOTE]The elected officials did not put it to a popular vote, rather they decided that what was in their own people's best intrests was the same as what private intrests (campaign contributors) wanted.[/QUOTE]The idea of representative democracy is that the will of the people should be carried out by their chosen representatives. If their representatives don't act according to the will of the people, they aren't reelected. As for campaign contributors, no amount of money can reelect a politician who has sufficiently angered his or her constituants. [QUOTE]There's going to be a lot of women sneaking across the border to other states to have a medical procedure every other woman is [b][i]entitled[/i][/b] to.[/QUOTE]How is someone entitled to an abortion? I would agree that you could say that someone is entitled to life-saving medicine or care, but an abortion? Rarely is an abortion needed to preserve a mother's life, and that procedure was not banned in South Dakota. Abortions are generally performed to avoid inconveniences or some sort of vaguely defined mental or emotional harm. Rather than killing the child, there are always various forms of birth control prior to conception and adoption after. [/QB][/QUOTE]
