I have yet to figure out why the law will charge someone who kills a woman and her unborn child with two counts of murder, yet if the woman herself chooses to kill the child within her it is considered her right. Or better yet, a woman who is pregnant can be arrested for endangerment of a child if she is using drugs or abusing alcohol during pregnancy.

Seems pretty hypocritical! Those who say a woman has the right to decide what happens to her body will say the child is not yet a child, yet those same people will cry out for justice if that child is killed by anyone other than a doctor the mother hires to terminate the child.

If a woman is using drugs alcohol she can be prosecuted for endangering her unborn child. The same unborn child she has the right to have surgically killed and removed from her body. Yet if she goes to a doctor to have this baby killed it is no longer a baby but a mere fetus? What's wrong with this picture?

The child within the womb is just that..a child. When left to grow within it's mother's womb it does not become anything BUT a child. It is not just foreign tissue within the woman's body. It has a heartbeat, it has fingers and toes. It already has within it's DNA physical features of both parents. To call it merely a "fetus" does not make the child any less human, although that is why those who justify the murder of unborn children refer to the baby as a fetus and not a baby.

If the term "termination of a fetus" were with "termination of a baby", people would be less likely to accept this so called woman's right to choose.

When we make that life seem less than human we open the door to something dangerous. Hitler viewed anyone not of his lineage less than human. The atrocities that were done in the holocaust were possible because the Jews were viewed as less than human by the Nazi organization. Slavery was acceptable in the US because certain whites viewed blacks as less than human. We all know this attitude is horribly wrong and most people do not accept it. So why do so many accept the idea an unborn child is less than human until it is actually born? And how can anyone say, let alone believe this child within the womb does not feel the pain of it's body being destroyed?

Most abortions are not done because it is a choice between the mother or the child, or because of rape - they are more for convenience. Abortion has become the new "birth control". We are allowing the murder of babies for convenience. We have become a society that places
