Absolutely. I want unborn children to have the same rights as any other child.

Well, a mother can smoke - and drink - around a born child, so the unborn have the same "right" to be exposed to it. Or would you forbid it for women who have born children, or are simply in their reproductive years, whether they've ever been pregnant or not, just to be on the safe side?

Logically that makes sense....

But then I think of scary people like John Edwards, 'channeling fetuses'...

I'm envisioning John Edwards types suing mothers on behalf of the channeled child for eating a chocolate bar (SUGAR!) while with child.

"Absolutely. I want unborn children to have the same rights as any other child."

That doesn't include doing "anything" which by its nature could usurp a born child's rights to protect the unborn. Be very carefule when you use such wide casting nets.
