South Dakota question
 

Does that answer the question? If the mother is charged with conspiracy or aiding and abetting, she's being charged with a crime under other provisions, not under that act.

He's from Texas. All states are small to him.

Fuck Alaska.

Yes, I'm sure that's just what the AG will argue.

But they'd have to reference that Act to say what she was aiding and abetting or conspiring about, and that Act says that nothing in it can be used to get the preggo/formerly preggo woman. Without referencing the abortion Act thingy, she's not conspiring or aiding or abetting anything.

So you can do it yourself... Like those at-home hair coloring kits, or one of those diabetic self-testing kits.

I could see Wilford Brimley pitching it:

"As a man, I understand that sometimes birth control might not work. Or maybe you were drunk and forgot. But as a law-abiding citizen, I also respect laws. Now, in South Dakota, you can't see a doc for an abortion. But luckily, the folks at American Health Devices have it all figured out for you..."

South Dakota question
 

There are a lot of websites popping up telling women how to do it to themselves. I'm not seeing how that's preferable to in a physician's office under medical supervision where counseling may be available.

South Dakota question
 

It's a culture of life thing. You wouldn't understand.

South Dakota question
 

Yeah, having sinners, who everybody knows are mostly the poor and minorities, die of infections and self-inflicted wounds helps achieve the long-sought goal of racial purity.

I would have thought an aristocratic Mexican such as yourself would understand these things, dear.

South Dakota question
 

Sigh. This is the subject of the LAT article I quoted a few days back. The answer is the former: The woman is precluded from criminal prosecution under this law, period.

South Dakota question
 

These are the sinners.

I apologize for hurting your feelings by forgetting what was surely a lucid, timely, and informative post. But your "under this law" caveat is exactly what I'm talking about. Thanks to Burger, we know that the law says:

• Nothing in this Act may be construed to subject the pregnant mother upon whom any abortion is performed or attempted to any criminal conviction and penalty.

A prosecutor would argue that a woman charged with conspiracy or aiding and abetting is not being "subjected" to criminal conviction or penalty under "this Act" -- she's being charged with conspiracy or aiding and abetting, which are distinct crimes.
