JACKSON, MISS. — Mississippi House and Senate members must work out differences on a bill to ban abortion after 20 weeks' gestation.
The Senate passed House Bill 1400 unanimously on Tuesday, changing the bill to require more work.
Twenty weeks is halfway through a full-term pregnancy of 40 weeks. Exceptions to the 20-week ban would be made to prevent permanent physical damage or death of a pregnant woman, or in cases of several fetal abnormalities.
However, senators, on a split voice vote, rejected an amendment by Sen. Derrick Simmons, D-Greenville, to create an exemption for pregnancies that occur through rape or incest.

Sounds reasonable to me. 20 weeks is long enough to make a decision..abortion after that long of a time frame is just cruel and sick.

If they would add that then it sounds reasonable to me. If they don't and a woman gets raped my thoughts are she would get the abortion way before 20. That is just my 2 cents though.

But its NOT "20 weeks to make a decision"
Its 20 weeks gestation age. That usually means between 18-19 weeks after fertilization. 16 weeks after the missed period.
SCIENCE - try it out!
BTW - The standard isn't "long enough to make a decision according to X-jackass on TD.com" its VIABILITY. A 20 week fetus isn't viable. The youngest to EVER survive was 21 weeks and 6 days. This law is unconstitutional.

It will be only a short time before a judge comes an overturns the ban.

Great news

I can't wait till the day when we discover the true point of pain receptors of a fetus.. At that time, the mental hurdles some will go through will probably make me visibly sick.

So how many can we count on you to line up and adopt?

Yep.
There really is no reason for an abortion at that point in the pregnancy if the mother's health is not an issue.

I don't have a problem with that. At that point in the pregnancy, only the mother's health should be considered for such an abortion.
If you can't decide by that point, oh well it's too late then.

honestly, I don't get this shite.
either abortion is murder or it isn't. these time constraints and exceptions flip my "feel-good" legislation switch for people to feel better over the fact abortion is legal.
