Friends only til I say so.
Though, in parting gesture to all you lurkers out there, South Dakota is pretty fucking shrewd. I mean, when Arizona repealed MLKII day a while back, there was a boycot, including the NFL, that persuaded them to get their heads out of their asses. How does one organize a boycot of a state that no one goes to, anyway? What the hell is in South Dakota? Just Mount Rushmore, and that doesn't get all that much tourism because it's in South fucking Dakota. The entire state is miles and miles and miles of wheat, with the ocassional person who now can no longer have abortions in cases of rape or incest.
Unless you happen to be a chaste, god fearing, and white victim of rape: "Napoli (R, SD State Senator) says most abortions are performed for what he calls "convenience." He insists that exceptions can be made for rape or incest under the provision that protects the mother's life. I asked him for a scenario in which an exception may be invoked.
BILL NAPOLI: A real-life description to me would be a rape victim, brutally raped, savaged. The girl was a virgin. She was religious. She planned on saving her virginity until she was married. She was brutalized and raped, sodomized as bad as you can possibly make it, and is impregnated. I mean, that girl could be so messed up, physically and psychologically, that carrying that child could very well threaten her life."
The implication of course is that non-virgins, or people cohabitating out of wedlock, aren't similarly traumatized by the action.
Anyway, political and musical musings are still open to everyone at
