Praise God! There is a move of the holy spirit underway in this country. Soon this law will be upheld by SCOTUS and more states will follow. Thank you Arkansas and thank you TRUMP. Hallelujah!

Arkansas Governor Asa Hutchinson signed into law on Thursday a bill banning the most common abortion procedure employed in the second trimester of a pregnancy, among the most restrictive abortion legislation in the United States.
The law, which takes effect later this year, prohibits dilation and evacuation, a practice that pro-choice advocates say is the safest method of ending a pregnancy but which supporters of the legislation call "barbaric," requiring the "dismemberment" of the fetus.
Anti-abortion activists said the bill was their paramount objective in the current legislative session. With conservative Republicans controlling both chambers of the General Assembly, the bill faced little opposition.
Near identical laws have been adopted in Mississippi and Louisiana. Similar bans in Kansas, Oklahoma and Alabama have faced legal challenges and have yet to be implemented, according to the Guttmacher Institute, which tracks abortion legislation.
Opponents of the Arkansas law vowed to fight it in the courts and predicted it would fail.
"The law puts an undue burden on a woman’s constitutional right to obtain a second-trimester abortion, and I think the legislature knows it and doesn’t care," said Rita Sklar, an attorney for the Arkansas chapter of the American Civil Liberties Union.
Hutchinson, a Republican, had said he believed the U.S. Supreme Court could uphold the law if given the opportunity. He said evolving medical standards of fetal viability could alter the traditional definition of trimester.
The Arkansas health department has said that dilation and extraction was used in 683 of the 3,771 abortions performed in Arkansas in 2015, the most recent year for which it has records.

Still legal till 12 weeks, which is how it should be.

Less personal liberty! More taxpayer money spent supporting these babies on welfare! More unsafe "back alley" abortions! More women dying from birth complications! Thank God!

And what part of the Constitution says that?

I think it's in the same section that says everyone has a right to free healthcare.

Did they not have the liberty to not even get pregnant if they didn't want a baby?

After 13 weeks, you should've already decided one way or another to terminate or keep it. Barring the pregnancy having lethal harm to the mother, this should be common sense to be banned.

Rat or insect problem? Better call the exterminator. I don't see evangelicals bitching about that shite.

It's in the Liberal Amendment that also says healthcare is right and so is the right to sit on your arse and have the taxpayers feed you.

Arkansas is following the European model.
This is the first time that sentence has ever been written, by the way.

One wonders how many more fetuses will be aborted while the Holy Spirit takes its sweet time.
