Perry opposes abortion except in cases of rape, incest and when the pregnant woman's life is in danger.

Therefore, all a woman has to say is that, "if I cannot have an abortion, I will kill myself" and the Perry would permit her to kill her baby.

Not quite. There's a lot of history behind this statement of belief.

It is very significant that the Governor's position is not "for the *health* of the mother. It is to save the life of the mother.

Don't you believe in self-defense?

Personally, I don't believe that any but the 3rd reason is justifiable. The only reason to kill a human is in defense of life. (Even that statement is a very simplified version of thousands of years of philosophy.).
