I have a great amount of sympathy/empathy for someone feeling they're that choiceless that they'd kill someone for their own well being in the future. But, I feel even more for the unborn child, personally. The innocent life that was not part of the decision to be born; the decision the mother and father made. (I'm ruling out rape/incest as they're an insignificant percentage of abortions performed). |
Because it is not legally a life until it is born. Once it is born it has the same rights as everyone else. Two organisms cannot have legal rights over the same body.
