A guessing game
Where could the following news article be from? South Dakota? Kansas? One of the other 9 states that have passed laws restricting abortion? No, because this particular place seems to have already enacted what Republicans from those 9 states are only dreaming of.

Doctors have reached a consensus that there has been an increase of women who are attempting abortion secretly. An obstetrician in _________ said that unless either the mother is in a critical situation, or the fetus is showing severe disability symptoms, abortion is outlawed. However it seems to him that abortion cases have been on the rise especially since last year. There is no official statistics, but the doctors have anecdotal evidence that more and more women have been coming to their doctors and asking secretly for an abortion. He further speculated that women have been trying to avoid having more children. Women who attempt abortion, in most cases, acquire from the markets and abuse drugs that have been rumored to rid them of their fetus, or secretly undergo operations by paying doctors whom they know well. Such operations are carried out in utmost secrecy as, if discovered, the doctor in question as well as the officials in charge is sent to re-education centers.


Give up? Here's the link to the original article: http://goodfriendsusa.blogspot.com/

2. Awesome. Well, North Korea is a brutal, totalitarian dictatorship where all
people must march in lockstep and are not allowed to admit the truth even to themselves.

On the other hand, the US that the right-wingers are fighting to create is...oh, never mind.
