I am actually OK with the law. This is one (of two) areas I am actually conservative on and you have 6 weeks. That said, I am surprised it doesn't include rape or incest. I'm not sure a women carrying a child that was conceived by someone who raped you is a good idea. In fact, It's a HORRIBLE IDEA. How can someone even come up with this craziness??
If someone holds the perspective that abortion is equivalent to the murder of a postnatal infant, then it's intellectually and morally inconsistent to make exceptions for rape and incest. How the fetus came to be has no bearing whatsoever in that discussion.liberalag12 said:

If one believes abortion is always murder at any stage of pregnancy, that's the only position you can hold. Anything else is tacit support of something you believe constitutes murder.TexasRebel said:
So you'd prefer an unwanted child remind its mother of getting victimized for the rest of one of their lives?

And besides, the rape/incest argument is the boring trope of the intellectually lazy. It represents such a tiny percentage of abortions that it is barely relevant at all, and it's a question never posed in good faith. If you don't believe, go and see how many pro-choice individuals would be willing to entertain abortion limitations IF the pro-life side agreed to universal exceptions for rape and incest. If the answer is no (and it always will be) then why are we talking about it? Clearly its simply just a gotcha attempt lacking in sincerity.
I believe the intent was to ban abortion around the time the baby's heart begins beating. Since the medical profession defines end of life as when the heart stops beating, it seems consistent to say life begins with a beating heart.Faustus said:
I can't see how anyone can celebrate a law allowing murder up until the baby makes it past six weeks. That seems morally and intellectually inconsistent.
Not you personally IA, just in general.

Really? Obviously, you probably are a man like me. Imagine being a women, and having a child you are developing in the womb reminding you every day of what happened to you etc.. Do ya think that might be a bit traumatic? Shouldn't that person decide on choosing what to do in that dilemma? Besides, tramua therapy is about getting a person's power back that has been taking away. How is that hard to understand? I do know some women still give birth to the child in a miraculous gift of grace and forgiveness, turning a traumatic incident into life which is amazing, to say the least.
I would hope that is common practice at hospitals for rape victims.Bourre said:
If a rape occurs, take a plan B while being evaluated at the hospital. Well inside 6 weeks.
A woman can put the baby up for adoption. KILLING the baby before it is born is the most selfish and immoral thing a woman can do.GeorgiAg said:
A lotta dudes who don't have the prospect of caring for a human being for at least 18 years have some pretty strong opinions on this.
I imagine that there will be no shortage of depraved doctors who will sign anything that will legally warrant the death of the baby.Stupid@17 said:
Sadly, this will likely be problematic in cases of incest rape, as the child won't know until well outside the 6 weeks.
This law should have had provisions allowed to go slightly beyond 6 weeks in cases of rape, severe deformity, risk of mothers death etc.
