[Eagle Eye]

Coercion by violence is a perfectly proper definition for application to the practice of abortion.

Who is the object of coercion and what is the political ideal?

Unborn aren't coerced and they don't vote.

As tragic as abortion is, it isn't terrorism as commonly practiced.

Try the mothers, fathers and who says it is a strictly political definition?In fact it IS also a political & moral issue of the highest magnitude - every day to those who experience it and each election cycle to those who debate it.Coercion is the use of force, psychological and/or physical to gain compliance.The unborn, the parents & families are all subject to some degree of coercion with the unborn child bearing the brunt.You can play all the semantics cards you want - abortion is a form of terrorism against those who can't defend themselves.
