There is no point in Mississippi that is hundreds of miles from a state line.
Bordered by Alabama, Louisiana, Arkansas and Tennessee, I dare say they're also likely to be taking the hard line approach. FL might be the nearest state that would assist. Definitely hundreds of miles.
Says who? If a brother and sister, who are both above 18 sleep together, isn't that consensual? If a mom and her grown up son choose to sleep together, is that not consensual? If it's not consensual, then it's rape, regardless of the nature of the relationship.
That can be a concent issue if the power balance is out of wack such as between a father/child. It's also a giant boundary issue. Most people would be unable to look at a relative as a sexual being. My ex sister in law once tried to tell me something sexual about my brother and I shot her down before she could get the words out of her mouth. Even the thought of my parents having sex together freaks me out. I know they've done it three times at least...ewwww.
Abortion is preformed by doctors. It’s a medical procedure.
So is a penis enlargement. Just because it's a medical procedure doesn't mean it's medically necessary. 98.3% of the abortions performed in the US are elective convenience abortions, not medically necessary abortions.
And yet some people in this country have always had to do that. There are people that travel to another state for cancer treatments because there are no specialists near them. Same with heart disease and any other ongoing issue, not to mention veterans who have to travel because there isn't a nearby VA hospital or they can't get an appointment at the nearest one.
Correct. The nearest hospital to me that treats anything more than minor injuries (simple fractures, etc.) is located in another state.
Literally defending incest. I've yet to see any conservative talking head defend incest, sorry, you're on a different level here. No where have I ever read that American conservatives are for incest.
Have a good day.
No...NOT defending incest...defending privacy in the bedroom!

It explains why voters in Mississippi refused to vote yes to grant full human rights beginning at the moment of conception.
If enough horror stories come out in Mississippi and other Red States about what happens to women who can't get abortions, then I trust them that they will want to change laws in which abortion is regulated, reasonably restricted and certainly not banned or nearly so.
Most people wanted it to pass until the left lied about it in their advertising campaign against it. You know this already so why do you keep pushing false information?
making vague promises that he is “focusing every day on fixing the challenges that are before us” and talking condescendingly about “educational opportunities” and “jobs” (as if education and jobs will fix entrenched child poverty, as if child care in America is not prohibitively expensive for many working moms).
what do the special kind of idiots like Peter Wade WILL fix child poverty better than better education and higher pay? What IS poverty other than a lack of earnings? If I were to apply for "poverty benefits", what's the 1 question they're going to base it on? My income.
its a shame people will have to travel hundreds of miles for medical attention
Many people travel for medical not everyone lives near large hospitals. They have been doing it for a long time. Is a cancer patient, heart patient who has to travel not as important….everyone’s life is important. You travel to get healthcare if it’s needed.
Apparently the conservative women in this state are okay with this. Okay with forcing rape victims to birth rapists offspring. ...To each their own I guess. aint that the beauty of America? s/

The only exceptions in the law are for cases of rape and when the life of the mother is in danger.
BTW, based on all the anecdotes being posted on Twitter, it seems "viability because of medical condition" of the fetus should be covered as well for ectopic pregnancies and other developmental issues where the fetus will most assuredly not survive.
