I wrote, "Does an anencephalitic fetus have a "right to life?"

Mr. LeRoy responded, "No."

Hmmmm. This is presumably because there is no "potential for reasoning free-willed individuality."

But why have the government involved in protecting a group of cells that merely have the "potential" to form a brain? Why not only get the government involved when a brain truly exists?
