even though civil liberties are being violated by this law, it still makes sense. there are some people who are out of control and need to earn basic rights like freedom of speech - like the vast majority of the internet commenters

Arizona law 'pregnancy starts 2 weeks before conception'

Arizona has succeeded in making itself one of the most backward states in the country. Anew law signed by Jan Brewer on Thursday states that, in Arizona, pregnancy begins two weeks before conception. This law reduces the amount of time that a woman has to get an abortion if she wants one, or it is deemed medical necessary for her health. One abortion advocate has this to say about the new law;

I say go for it !
Doubt, it can be enforced.
Probably go straight to Court and get struck down.
that's the same thing i said to my friend ring.. i don't see how it's enforceable.. who's the judge on what would be considered offensive is my biggest question..

It's not even april 1st. I'm calling shennanigans on all those, no way they are real. I won't believe it until I see it in the actual legislature on the states website.

How long is the list of cases to be investigated and what army will investigate?

I hope it is not Poland.

I agree, its difficult to reconcile this law (I guess its still a bill now, actually) with the first amendment.

While its probably possible to construct a law like this that would pass muster, doesn't sound like this one does.

On "two weeks before conception", that's actually very simple. In many cases its simply impossible to know when conception actually has taken place. The widely used medical standard to mark the beginning of pregnancy for medical recordkeeping is simply from "the last menstrual period", since that's an externally visible sign and most women do know exactly when that was. LMP, also happens to be two weeks before conception in most (but not all) cases.

The issue here isn't really switching to the most commonly accepted medical standard for marking the start of pregnancy, but rather explicitly changing the time frame in which abortions are legally permissible.

IE, the problem isn't specifically that AZ is using the LMP to start the clock, is that the law in question bans abortions more than 20 weeks afterwards, going against Federal precedent requiring legal abortions before fetuses could survive on their own.
