ND bills could make abortion rules strictest in US

BISMARCK, N.D. (AP) -- The North Dakota Senate is considering a pair of bills that could make the state's abortion laws the most restrictive in the country.

One bill would ban most abortions if a fetal heartbeat is detected. That can happen as early as six weeks into pregnancy.

A second bill would prevent women from having abortions based on gender selection or a genetic defect, such as Down syndrome.

The Republican-controlled Senate is expected to vote on both bills Friday, sending them to Republican Gov. Jack Dalrymple, who has indicated he would sign them.

3. Banning abortions for 'genetic defect', uh? Then the bastards that vote for it, should

be mandated to pay every cent of the medical and care bills for the child. And funeral expenses as well.

4. It still won't stop abortions, be it illegal

and the children that will be born and parents who can't afford them, and adoption is second hand class, and if the GOPpers get their way, many children will be living on the streets and starve to dead or go into the life of crime. This is the NEW WORLD ORDER brought to you by your compassionate right winger Christians.
