I think, therefore I am. Would you please state your argument that the
fetus is a concious being before you make such ad hominem arguments?
Perhaps, I should rally against heart transplants, after all, why does
one heart loss its right to life just because it doesn't work that well?

You could not have provided a more lucid example of your anti-woman
sentiments. What about the WOMEN? Oh yeah, they're MURDERERS (an
assertion with no legal evidence) and don't have any rights. I'm
sickened by this attitude.

>After all, the point of abortions is to kill fetuses.

Like I said: and NOT WOMEN!

>The only difference between a legal abortion and an illegal one from the
>fetus's point of view...

The fetus doesn't HAVE a point of veiw; in fact, it has less of a point
of veiw than the average gerbil. Your argument is ludicrous.

>Can you see any differences between "it's OK for someone to victimize
>you" and "it's not OK for someone to victimize you"?

That's an easy distinction to make, what about victimizing women?
