The South Dakota House of Representatives will soon vote on a bill that would expand the definition of justifiable homicide to include killing to protect the life of a fetus. The plain language of the bill would appear to legalize the murder of abortion providers for performing legal abortions on women who request them.
Kate Sheppard explains in Mother Jones:
The bill, sponsored by state Rep. Phil Jensen, a committed foe of abortion rights, alters the state’s legal definition of justifiable homicide by adding language stating that a homicide is permissible if committed by a person “while resisting an attempt to harm” that person’s unborn child or the unborn child of that person’s spouse, partner, parent, or child. If the bill passes, it could in theory allow a woman’s father, mother, son, daughter, or husband to kill anyone who tried to provide that woman an abortion—even if she wanted one.
“The bill in South Dakota is an invitation to murder abortion providers,” Vicki Saporta, the president of the National Abortion Foundation told Mother Jones.
The bill’s sponsor, Rep. Phil Jensen, vehemently denies that his bill would legalize the murder of abortion doctors, Sheppard reports in a follow-up post. Jensen did not return Mother Jones’s calls for comment before the original story ran, but he now claims that he simply wants to update the state’s fetal homicide legislation.
Jensen’s stated intent is irrelevant, however. The plain language of his bill expands the category of “justifiable homicide” to protect certain people who kill to save a fetus.
There is no question that many radical anti-choicers will interpret this legislation as a license to kill. If this bill becomes law, it is only a matter of time before one of these terrorists travels to South Dakota to test that interpretation.
As Jodi Jacobson of RH Reality Check notes, the bill codifies the same legal argument that anti-choice terrorist Scott Roeder deployed unsuccessfully at his trial for the assassination of the prominent late-term abortion provider and pro-choice activist Dr. George Tiller. Technically, the bill would only protect people who killed to “protect” a fetus being carried by their partner or family member, not strangers like Roeder who killed to “protect” fetuses in general, but the veiled threat to abortion providers is clear.
The bill cleared the legislature’s judiciary committee by a party-line vote of 9-3. The legislation is co-sponsored by 22 state legislators and 4 state senators. The full state house is scheduled to vote on the bill on Wednesday.
Steve Benen of the Washington Monthly sees the legislation as a sign of a “radical turn” in the culture war.
“Birth or Die Act” advances
Meanwhile, at the federal level, the anti-choice bill H.R. 358 passed the House Energy and Commerce Committee, Miriam Perez reports for Feministing. H.R. 358 is controversial on two fronts. First, it appears to create an opening for hospitals to refuse abortion care and abortion referrals, even when a woman’s life is at risk. Second, the bill would effectively end private insurance coverage for abortion as we know it.
Fruitwashing
You’ve heard of “greenwashing,” the marketing trend where companies repackage their old polluting inventory as planet-healthy products? The latest corporate marketing gambit is to convince consumers that sugar, starch, and red food dye are good for us, a process dubbed “fruitwashing,” by Brie Cadman of change.org.
Cadman takes food giant Kellogg’s to task for touting the “real fruit” in its frosted mini Pop Tarts, now available in 100-calorie packs. Of course, these rosy toaster pastries contain only a minuscule amount of fruit.
Kellogg’s is a repeat offender when it comes to fruitwashing. The box of the company’s Frosted Mini Wheats Blueberry Muffin cereal features photos of real blueberries, but the actual “blueberry crunchlets” in the box are made of sugar, soybean oil, red dye #40 and blue dye #2.
Play with your food
In an article called “Why Playing With Your Food is Serious Business,” Carol Deppe of Grist argues that processed fare is driving us to overeat by cheating us out of our instinctive drive to interact with our foods before we eat them:
I also tend to overeat the delicious bean soup on that day I effortlessly thawed a portion from the freezer, compared with the day that I made the soup from scratch myself. The act of preparing food seems to actually be one of my satiety mechanisms. That is, to avoid overeating, to feel satisfied with normal, healthful amounts of food, I have to play with my food.
A highly processed diet enables us to practically inhale our calories, leaving us unsatisfied.

Visitor from the Pill Galaxy says to join up with them Fattie Americans must first attain an acceptable level of perfection to be worthy of their technological help.
His instructions are infallible, based on 100% scientific analyses done by our best nutrition experts.
Here are the easy-to-follow capsule formulations from this wonderful alien:.. who in an oddly deja vu sort of way rather closely recalls to us the actor Michael Rennie (Movie: "Day the Earth Stood Still" available from Netflix).
So far one man has made these capsules in his kitchen as a human test subject and has gained in ONE WEEK'S TIME 3 lbs. of fat-burning muscle with an associated remarkable reduction in abdominal waistline girth, an omen of unprecedented achievement for a 60 year old thyroid-deficient male in anyone's widest weight loss dreams. It is even being said he wakes up each day refreshed and does 500 sit-ups before breakfast! (rumors yet to be verified that smacks of Steve Reeves memories from childhood Hercules movies).
Protein powder to lower appetite.
Fat intake of your own fat satisfies appetite.
Cayenne powder dissolves fat speeds nutrient absorption.
Spirulina a high protein well-known for weight loss plus has iodine.
Oxy-Nectar fruit-veggie antioxidants fight disease & cancers + cleanses.
Apple Pectin, a diabetic-friendly soluble fiber that lowers LDL
Aloe Vera cactus speeds healing, aids elimination.
Apple Pectin for colon health.
Purchase a pill filler for 50 size 00 capsules and buy the 00 capsules.
#1 First Pill => Mix 1 cup Protein powder w/ 1 cup Apple Pectin + 7 capsules Cayenne 40,000 HU makes 300 capsules
Bypassing the stomach for intestine delivery keeps Cayenne from burning stomach lining
Take 6 caps spread through your day 2 in the morning, 2 afternoon, 2 in the evening.
Makes for a little over one Cayenne @40,000 heat units per day total.
That's your day's worth of fat burn in 6 capsules + YOUR TICKET away from hospitals.
#2 Second Pill => Mix 50% Oxy-Nectar w/ 25% Spirulina & 25% Aloe Vera (capos)
Drink more fluids through the day as all these are dry powders.
#3 No More White Table Sugar => use Xylitol in its place.
Xylitol Page => http://www.angelfire.com/az/sthurston/xylitol_natural_sweetener.html
Vitamins, nutrients & nutrition prevents anorexia from going overboard. Eat well.
Your appetite will diminish from day one taking the
above but you may find yourself needing less medicines.
Patients taking a blood thinner do not take in 4 hours from Cayenne.
Caution is advised. Diabetics can expect to gradually lower insulin dosage.
Add some alkaline-leaning foods to your diet to balance the pH.
Coconut Oil is excellent for that, plus it is an antimicrobial
+ it is a protein of very high quality that also fortifies the thyroid gland.
Mentally you need to prepare yourself for the SYSTEM SHOCK of feeling younger.
You are now being high-proteined, de-flabbed and improved peristaltic.
Gonna be a new you feeling-wise. Weight lost is your decision.

All growth oriented products are good for the health of the manufacturers.
None of the vitamin pills are effective .
Only way to supplement Vitamin loss is to eat the vegetables/foods that contain the vitamins.
It is also a fact that if a pill for a particular deficiency is taken, it is ejected in stools.
For instance if you take iron tablets you will find your stools greenish, which is iron being thrown out.
if you tale B Complex, it gets thrown out in urine, which will be yellow.
Medicine is driven by Drug Companies and crooked Doctors..
