"Your DNA is mine, little girl" at Talk To ActionBrings up an excellent point: "Talton's HB 859 places no requirements upon a physician who provides a girl under 14 with prenatal care and delivers her child, should she choose to continue her pregnancy. In that circumstance, no law enforcement intervention is even suggested, let alone required by law. It does, however, carry criminal penalties for any doctor who fails to cooperate after providing her with abortion care."

Maybe there should be a seperate section for court cases, so they're easier to find? I didn't see these on the list, so I thought I'd add them. Griswold v Connecticut (1965) It is unconstitutional to restrict the use of contraceptives by a married couple. Right to privacy is established. Roe v Wade (1973) Established the trimester system in determining whether restrictions on abortion are constitutional. Planned Parenthood v Casey (1992) Trimester system is rejected. The state cannot place any "undue burden" upon a woman seeking an abortion prior to viability. Stenberg v Carhart (2000) Nebraska state law prohibiting partial-birth abortion is unconstitutional. It creates an undue burden upon women seeking abortion because it does not provide an exception to preserve a woman's health. Gonzales v Carhart (2007) Upholds the Partial Birth Abortion Ban Act of 2003. Banning partial-birth abortion does not create an "undue burden" and it is never medically necessary to preserve a woman's health.

Huge-a** resource: All of Alternet's Reproductive Justice section! Edit: Also, Setar's famous question: Lord Setar How is consent to sex, an established consent to the risk of pregnancy, irrevocable consent to carrying any resulting pregnancy to term?

Updated as of 1/27/08
All ya'lls links have been added, except for Spiffy's Salon article, which is being a jerk. And Only-Abortion-Is-Mine was there already. Court Case section has been added.
The Specific Pages section is now huge because I merged it with Articles, but I'm going to separate it into categories eventually. Someday. Really.

Categories would be awesome! But that's a lot of work. I'll probably maybe help you with that. Someday... Anyway, somebody, I think it was Rose Rose, posted this page: Exposing The True Motives of the Pro-life Movement It is chock-full of misogynist, anti-contraception and just-plain-crazy quotes from pro-life people and groups. The site this page came from is http://www.abortion.org.au/index.htm and it is excellent. It includes a number of useful pages, such as: Quote: Abortion Clinics in Australia International Abortion Clinics Abortion Methods Pregnancy Counselling CHOOSE LIES: One Woman's Experience at a Crisis Pregnancy Center RU-486, Abortion Pill What does an Early Abortion Look Like? How to Search the Internet for Pro-Choice Web Sites Pro? Anti? Confused? Learn how to Recognize Deceptive, Anti Choice Web sites Articles about Abortion Is it About Saving Babies?

Ms. Magazine | Dying in the Backstreets | Winter 2008I posted this today and thought it would make an excellent addition. Ms. Magazine reports on the impact of the global gag rule in Kenya. It's shocking and tragic to see what happens when women have no access to education, contraception, or safe and legal abortion. Maybe it'll be dismissed as appeal to emotion but hopefully it will wake up the sort of people who are totally arrogant, ignorant and insutling towards women in the threads.

Time for more links. The American Porspect | Consenting AdultsIt's not really a good debate source, but it does point out how the "informed consent" laws that pro-life groups push are based on insulting assumptions about women. Quote: This line of thinking makes clear that women are too ignorant to realize that they are carrying some sort of nascent life in them, and too weak to possibly decide for themselves whether to have an abortion. Even worse, drafters of the South Dakota law do not think women are competent to state whether they have absorbed all of this helpful state information properly: The law would require the doctor to certify, in writing, that he "believes she [the pregnant woman] understands the information imparted." "Informed consent is good," says Yale's Reva Siegel (who wrote about these issues with me in TAP last year), "but not if the only abortion decision the movement recognizes as 'informed' is the decision to carry a pregnancy to term; if this is the premise on which the regulation and litigation rests, then the law is premised on an offensive view of women seeking abortion -- weak and confused and failing to conform to their natural role as mothers -- and will function to pressure and intimidate those women." As always, more links to come.
