There can't possibly be any credible study that says fetuses don't feel pain at 20 weeks. That's just stupid, that's just bad idiotic science.

However it was even stupider to force any woman to go through this shit, only to see the baby die.

Way to go, GOP, for practicing medicine without a license!
