My ideal abortion law, more or less.
- no later term abortions. Let "the science" come to a consensus on when in the pregnancy the fetus' neurons are developed enough to start feeling pain, and have that as the cut off point.
Obvious exceptions:
- medical cases, with the caveats: it needs a doctor, different than the one doing the procedure, to sign off on it being necessary to save the life of the mother; and all reasonable attempts must be made to try to save the life of the baby. Let the malpractice board decide what qualifies as "all reasonable attempts".
- rape/incest cases, but with the caveat that it needs to be reported to the police before hand. This is my biggest "must have" as it accomplishes multiple goals: it gives more incentive to women to report these crimes, thus taking away power from the feminists that claim rape is underreported; and once police start prosecuting the women that will obviously lie to get their abortions, it will eventually create an environment that punishes false rape allegations (this will be a really long term thing, but I think it will be worth it in the end).
