Abortion banned in South Dakota (1 Viewer)

Why does rape have no place in the discussion of abortion? As far as I am concerned, murder has no place in an abortion discussion, yet it is always used as the basis of debate by pro lifers.

The greater the genetic similarity between parents, the greater the risk of birth defects.

Even the yank political cartoonists are fired up about it =)

i didn't say rape has no place in discussing abortion, just that rape has no place in discussing issues with incest. I'm in no way contesting the rape portion...... just that incest is irrelevant. I've also not been able to find any numbers that show that incest has an excessively high risk attached to it.
