well south dakota has tried to outlaw abortion entirely i believe twice now. voters rejected it both times but you know they have tried to take that to the voters and put it on the ballot that abortion should be illegal you know flying in the face of supreme court law and roe v wade. is so i think the legislators in south dakota have shown that they're not deferential to federal law they certainly are big fans of a woman's right to choose you know and will do all sorts of things to try and limit that right in every way possible and i think i mean this bill is certainly part of that i mean at the very least it's part of this effort to establish fetal personhood you know and at its worst i do think that's an effort to intimidate abortion providers you know to put this out there again that what you're doing is you know you're killing and there are people that do feel that it would be justified to kill you. so in the defense of you know what they're calling unborn children that sends a very strong and scary message to a community of people abortion providers and c

right side of the debate has become a political tool used by both sides last month lawmakers in south dakota introduced legislation that would require any adult twenty one or older to buy a firearm not because they actually believe that would pass or that it should be required but to prove a point that they don't believe the government can mandate that citizens should purchase health care then a video came out from a group of undercover officers that new york city mayor michael bloomberg had sent to a gun show in phoenix arizona where they proved that the background check system can fail i don't matter which side you fall on the debate over guns is seen as and her only american the u.s. leads the world in gun ownership ninety guns per one hundred people but we also far away lead the world in gun violence and gun deaths what thirty thousand americans dying every year because of it so how does that look to the rest of the world to. discuss to see motley president of less government and from our los angeles studio ben cohen editor of the daily banter gentlemen thank you both for joining us than
