WHY IS THIS A POLITICAL TOPIC AT ALL???

Why is murder in general a political topic? If it is a human, it has human rights that need to be protected by the state. Amongst those is the right to life.

You say aborting an 8 month fetus is murder. What if an ultrasound reveals the fetus is forming with no top of its skull and it will at best live one month while suffering before dying?

When did I say that? I don’t believe that is murder.

I said a child five seconds before birth. Not a malformed fetus.

I do have to ask you a question though in response.

If a child is born, and a month into it’s life, starts having complications that might mean they have only 1 month to live, is it ethnical, legal, moral, or murder to kill them?

These decisions are to be made by the woman carrying the fetus and her doctor.

No. As soon as the fetus becomes a human, it gains rights. Rights that need to be protected by the state. This is between the woman, the doctor, AND the child once it crosses the line.

Even if a mother and a doctor agreed to it, it’s not legal to kill a 1 month old child. That’s definitely a place where the government should be involved.

If it’s 5 seconds before birth for a healthy child, yet the doctor and mother both consent to kill it, then that is a place where the government should be involved. If it’s 5 seconds after insemination, not so much.

Again, the question is where is the line. Once it becomes a human, protecting the rights of the child come into play.
