Anyone can legally kill in self-defense. Anyone. Only pregnant women are allowed to kill solely for the sake of their own convenience. Convenience abortions are NOT self defense. Anyone else besides the mother and the health care provider who kills that child in utero is charged with homicide.
I did. Fetal homicide laws are unconstitutional because they violate the US Constitution's Equal Protection Clause. Either anyone can kill a child in utero, or no one can. Can't have it both ways. The EPC prohibits special carve outs for some but not others, which is EXACTLY why Chauvin (though an LEO) was convicted of MURDER for George Floyd's death.

A woman has the right to control her own reproduction. No one else has the right to intervene in her reproduction.
Against my better judgment I will respond even though I have made this point many times before. By all means argue the moral disconnect between legal abortion and the strictest fetal homicide laws. I disagree with many fetal homicide laws for exactly that reason. But having both laws in place is not a violation of the Equal Protection clause of the Constitution.
It sure as hell is a violation. Like I said... Either anyone can kill a child in utero, or no one can. Can't have it both ways. The EPC prohibits special carve outs for some but not others, which is EXACTLY why Chauvin (though an LEO in the process of doing his job) was convicted of MURDER for George Floyd's death.
I think it could be legally argued that if abortion is outlawed then the state could be potentially financially responsible for every child born in that state. When you force people to become parents against their will it is no different than the draft. Just like the draft, one can avoid it but it could be against the law.
Again, NO ONE (except for rape) is forcing women to become pregnant. 95% of unintended pregnancies are due to women VOLUNTARILY participating in unprotected sex. I've posted a link to the data many times. Unprotected sex = likely pregnancy. They're actually CHOOSING pregnancy for themselves, via their own actions.
Only a minuscule percentage of abortions, 0.3%, are due to rape.

Women can control their reproduction all they want. The FACT is that 95% of unintended pregnancies are due to women VOLUNTARILY participating in unprotected sex.

Killing another's human life because a woman then later decides that the inevitable consequent pregnancy and raising a child would be an inconvenience to her is ethically and morally abhorrent.
If women can kill for convenience to get out of the consequences of their own actions, why can't we ALL just kill anyone who presents an inconvenience in our lives? Hmmm...???

Either a woman owns her own body or she does not. You keep arguing for a woman NOT owning her own body.
Too bad you can't see past the nonsense you copy and paste over and over and over again.

No. My position is that a woman has no right to kill another human for the sake of her own convenience. None of the rest of us can do that, either.
