I am against abortion in almost all circumstances but I certainly would not presume to force my preference on someone else's family.

If you believe abortion is murder, which many of us do, then there is no difference between killing a baby in the womb or waiting until after birth, and the state should pass judgement in the same manner it does when someone murders a child after it is born.

No, I don't believe abortion is murder. There is a substantial difference between a developing human being inside a woman's womb and a growing baby existing in the environment which we all share. There are also substantial differences between born human beings at different points of development and different standards apply in those cases (ie. 21 to kill yourself and others by drinking alcohol).

If you truly believe that abortion is murder, you should be preparing for another civil war to force your views on everyone. That should be good for a substantial quantity of dead adults and already born children.
