Let me see if I have this straight: if a fetus is killing a woman, you think the woman should just die rather than save herself?

Actually, as I've posted elsewhere on this thread, if the mother's life is at stake, it then becomes an issue of self-defense. Self-defense is not murder.

By your definition using a baby as a human shield to stop a bullet would be self defense too.
