I do have a question for you: Would a pile of dead n bodies from dwarves constitute any less of a tragedy than a much larger pile of the same number of bodies from giants? Is the giant inherently of more value than the dwarf?

On what basis do you seek to draw artificial lines of valuation based on size or age, given that life is a continuous, dynamic, gradual, smooth process with a real beginning, having no spikes or jumps?

I would think that most Americans would agree that there are no piles of dead bodies. This statement is pure hyperbole and is designed to appeal to emotion. Face it, most Americans don't view abortion as cold-blooded murder. Poll after poll after poll will attest to this. As such, they're not seeing any piles of dead bodies.
