It is not demonstrable that killing fetuses is killing persons.

Yes it is.

If abortion is a killing, then why were women never prosecuted? They instigate the abortion, often pay for it and an abortion cannot be done without their cooperation.

I practiced medicine for 13 years prior to Roe vs. Wade and women were never prosecuted in Minnesota. It was this kind of tautology that made harsh abortion penalties almost impossible to enforce.

I have an ultrasound picture of my 8 year old grandson. Perfect profile of the little guy (yes, we knew). You could look at that ultrasound picture and look at him today and - yep, no doubt - that’s the same person. Cute but quite distinctive nose. When my granddaughter was in utero, she would turn somersaults and kick at the sound of her big brother’s voice. She adores him.

I believe that’s life. That doesn't mean I have the solution to the dilemma.

Not if it is a pro abort defining “person.”
