Oy. What can a person say to you? Are you that hard-hearted? When I think of some of the nefarious ways a woman becomes pregnant; and think of how women can be so vulnerable to coercion, etc., to equate hiring a hit man to kill a baby with her seeking to get rid of it seems a little ludicrous.

Other than rape, a woman chooses to engage in activity to become pregnant. Adult women are not children, and are capable of making rational decisions. Rape would be a mitigating factor, presumedly.

Look, the reality is that chance that women will be put in jail for having an abortion is nil. However, it is a logical contradiction that somehow if a woman who is 39 weeks pregnant hires a doctor to perform a partial birth abortion she should be off the hook but if she hires someone to murder her day old newborn she should serve 20 years in prison. It means that despite the rhetoric, even most pro-lifers do not see the unborn as having the same status as those who are born.
