Some people are willing to break a law in order to save someone's life.

True.

In fact, common law allows for this.

Problem: under common law, the unborn child is not a person.

Even when it does not, some will break an UNJUST law in order to save someone's life.

Again, you have a problem vis-a-vis the common law you're citing to defend your right.

To date, I have not broken the law in this regard. But I laud those with the courage to do so - much like Rosa Parks, etc. who stood up to unjust laws.
