encouraging children to have sex. I support the education of children and "abstinence education" with a focus on "only," which is all the rage in the theo right circles, doesn't accomplish that.

And I really don't care that you don't "buy" that the purpose of unneccesarily legislating a ban on something that happens at very low occurrence rates and, at that, are only done - already - to preserve or save the health of the mother is the top of the slippery slope into a ban on all abortions.

The fact of the matter is - that is exactly the way the theocratic right wing has designed their attack on abortions - all abortions. Because such legislation obliterates the Fourth Amendment altogether - in it's statements as to the inalienable right of privacy. Pass such a law and within a few years - Roe v Wade is gone.

Legislators should pass laws ONLY when necessary. A ban on late term abortions is entirely unnecessary. And a law to teach abstinence is entirely unnessary too. We can and do already teach abstinence, we don't need no stinkin law to do it.
