Fair enough, I sit corrected. Having said that, I presume that you would then advocate for life imprisonment for premeditated homicides, a position that is decidedly outside of the political mainstream for abortions.
-
There is plenty of room to argue for this as it applies to physicians. Less so for the mothers who face huge coercive pressures to abort from the father, her family, and her social/occupational/educational peers. Coerced abortion is remarkably common and basically unreported.

Way to dodge the point that you're basically calling millions of American women homicidal.
-
Yeah, that's the implication isn't it. That if zygotes, embryos and fetuses are babies, then America is filled with millions of murders. Going forward, if abortion is illegal and homicidal, then America is going to have to build a massive amount of new prisons.

Do you demand equal punishment for women, or only the doctors like other pro-lifers? If abortion is homicide, how is the woman who hired the hitman not just as culpable as the hitman? Or do you concede fetuses are "lesser lifeforms"?
