So "a little murder" is OK if the conditions are right?

You see, I observe people against abortion staking out the high ground and identifying embryos and fetuses as "babies". It appears to me that a baby is a baby, and to say that one is a guilty baby whereas another is an innocent baby is not an honest position.

If the circumstances of their conception are irrelevant in some cases, they are irrelevant in all cases.

Same with the health of the woman. If she is only worth considering when she's ill, what does that say about the status of women generally?

As for the statistics on rape, I would suggest that "reported rape" and "actual rape" are two different statistics. But since we are discussing numbers that neither one of us have cited, we don't have to go there.
