I honestly don't understand how you guys obsess on definitions and formalities if you want to debate on abortion and topics like that.

Like Phylum briefly mentioned, if a mother can't raise a child stably because she and her husband/boyfriend/whatever don't have enough money, are not ready or are too busy with their lives at the moment the lady has a right to abort the baby. There are lots of people born from whore mothers that are crackbabies and stuff like that who probably shouldn't have been born anyway because their mother ruined their life from being irresponsible during pregnancy.

They have a right. It's murder, but the baby isn't even really alive yet. Since it's illegal past a certain point of fetal development I suppose that is at least legally when the fetus is considered a person. Scientifically I don't know and don't really care, because that's not the important matter of the issue in my opinion. My mother had an abortion before she gave birth to me because she couldn't handle it at the time. It hurt I'm sure, but she waited when it was the right time for her and everything's fine now. I don't miss my unborn brother/sister or whatever.
