Blade, would you be willing to adopt all those unwanted children who would be born if abortion were banned?
What do you propose we do with all these unwanted children? I am sure you've thought of this, just like you have obviously thought about your opinions on the subject.

It turns my stomach to read this. How is it in america you can kill a unborn baby through abortion and its legal (sinces the baby is not a baby its a "fetus")But you kill a pregnant women and its consider a double murder? I dont understand that at all.I thought it wasnt a baby, or person with legal rights, until it was born.Seems like the judical system is bias.

This is a question asked many times.
The reason the US has fetal homocide laws is because in this case, the woman didn't intend to abort her pregnancy. If the fetus is wanted, then anyone who causes the death of that fetus is held accountable.

The law does say that a fetus is not a human being until it has taken a breath, and I am not entirely sure why this changes in certain circumstances.
I am sorry I cannot provide you with an answer to this one!
My best bet would be to ask someone who works in law - or find someone who will be able to find out for you.

Those numbers that count the number of abortions each year don't go back before Row vs. Wade. There were plenty of illegal abortions performed before that and legalizing abortion actually didn't affect the number of abortions very much.

So "ending the holocaust" wouldn't actually stop abortion.

The difference is there are more safe abortions, and women are not dying in back alleys somewhere.

This also shows that society has accepted something that should be unacceptable.

The babies are still dying........

The women are not, and the woman is more important than a fetus.
Or would you tell your wife that her fetus is more valuble than she is, because it seems to be the way you feel.

Women most of the time do not die giving birth. I agree if a womans life is at risk at the time of birth they should be put before the infant. However we arguing if killing a child in the womb should be accpeptable or not, I believe not.

And her health and mental wellbeing are far more important too. As much as I may disagree with a womans motives to want abortion, as much as I do not like it, I have no say in what she does with her body or her life. Why do so many people have trouble understanding this?
