People have already pointed out that fetuses (in the initial stages) are not self-aware, have little (if any) movement or self control and (most importantly) can not survive outside of the womb.
Evidence?
:
Compare this to a person who is legally braindead, who is not self aware, has little (if any) movement or self control and can not survive without life support machinery. In that situation, it would be legal (and more than moral) to shut off the life support.
Well, most pro abortion choicers also tend to be right to die types. It is the same logic, after all, I guess.
:
All that said, you have repeatedly put the burden of proof on the pro-abortionists without providing any evidence that fetuses are alive.
:
Of course they're human. As I said in a previous post, I have no problem calling them human. However, they are not alive.

Fetuses, to all intents and purposes are not alive either. I won't use the word 'dead' because that implies that something had previously been alive. There really isn't an appropriate word for what they are - the closest I can come up with is pre-life. But pre-life is not life and the only thing lost in an abortion is potential life, not life itself.
Now you're just making up shit. You cannot be "pre-life" anymore than you can be undead or half alive. Fetuses are not dead. By process of elimination, they are alive. And since they are biologically human and alive, they are human.

Killing of humans is murder or manslaughter. A victim of a procedure designed to kill humans is, to quote Nicholas Angel, ****ING MURDERED!
