9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals Strikes Down Arizona's Ban on Abortions at 20 Weeks

Posted By LambChop

The hideous moonbats on the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals struck down Arizona's ban on abortions after 20 weeks of pregnancy, Tuesday. I don’t care if you are “pro choice”  – what barbaric ,heartless psychopath  would support aborting a 20 –week- old fetus?

FETAL DEVELOPMENT AT 20 WEEKS:

• Baby now weighs about 11 ounces and is roughly 7 inches long.
• Baby is 17cm long crown to rump, and weighs about 310 grams.
• The baby can hear and recognize the mother's voice.
• The mother will probably start feeling the first fetal movements.
• The toenails and fingernails are growing.
• The growth of hair on the rest of the body has started.
• The skin is getting thicker.
• The heart can now be heard with a stethoscope.

The baby may react to loud sounds. The baby can actually hear noises outside of the womb. Familiar voices, music, and sounds that baby becomes accustomed to during their development stages often are calming after birth. This is an important time for sensory development since nerve cells serving each of the senses; taste, smell, hearing, sight, and touch are now developing into their specialized area of the brain. The baby now weighs about 11 ounces and at roughly 7 inches long they are filling up more and more of the womb. Though still small and fragile, the baby is growing rapidly and could possibly survive if born at this stage.

Indeed. What kind of a psychopath would support an abortion at 20 weeks?
Women be like "I need an abortion but I just keep putting off" and then one day they feel the baby's movement and they be like "Oh damn! I just remembered!"

Oh wait, that's ridiculous. It never happens like that. If an abortion is performed after 20 weeks it's due to tragic circumstances, like, the mother's life is in danger or the baby will be grossly deformed. Any woman who has to have an abortion at this stage deserves sympathy, as their loss is enormous. She may be the mother of already born children, it may be a very much wanted baby, but the fetus' rights don't supercede those of the woman or her existing children.

I think we can agree that it is a "fetus" up until the time it is accidentally killed via gun violence, at that time the left considers it a "baby".
