"You still haven't answered whether you support forcing a 12-year old girl who has been raped to bear the fetus."
What the hell is a 'fetus' but a not-yet-born human child?
Has a fetus ever come out of the womb as a dog, or a train, or a freaking palm tree? No! It's always a human.
So, you're advocating that somehow we should look at the killing of the innocent, yet-unborn child as a preference to the 12 year-old giving birth. As if somehow by killing the unborn child the 12 year-old is relieved of trauma?

No, the 'human child' is not fully developed after 2 weeks. Therefore, it's not a human child, it's a fetus.

I know that this will greatly upset you, but you're not the person who gets to decide. The child gets to decide. I know you would impose any hardship on a child who has already suffered much (by putting a gun against her head and forcing her to continue to bear a rapist's child), if you could, but we as a society have decided that we won't provide people like yourself with that opportunity.
