The Senate on Wednesday approved by a 29-2 vote the bill, which prohibits doctors from performing abortions if they know the procedure is being sought solely because of the diagnosis. The measure now heads to the House.

What a bunch of incompetent buffoons, they're removing half the point of aborting inconvenient fetuses.

The Arkansas legislature passed a bill about a month ago to make abortion in the state illegal - if and when R vs W is ever overturned.

This makes less sense than a straight ban on all abortions. Basically if the baby is presumably healthy, it’s legal to get an abortion; however, if the fetus has a severe genetic disorder associated with a multitude of debilitating and costly health problems, then abortion is not legal.

If that’s the standard, why can’t we kill them after they’re born?

Well you can’t kill the one’s not covered by the ban either. I’m not advocating for any abortions. I’m saying that it makes even less sense for those not covered by the ban.

They should pass one saying it would be illegal if the choice was because of sex or gender of baby, or because ot had any genetic markers indicating sexuality.

Libs would fricking lose it.

No one is advocating abortion, just simply stating another obvious flaw in its practice

Do they really expect someone that actively chooses to kill babies as a profession to be honorable and refuse to kill the baby just because of this law?

Do they honestly expect a woman willing to kill a baby to not lie about her reason for killing a baby if it means she won't be able to kill said baby?
