If murder is the unlawful killing of a human being, then abortion is not murder because it is perfectly legal.
And if life is the issue, the baby is not alive yet. Should this be extended to when people decide not to have sex? Is that stopping a baby from being born when it has all the right to be? That is the same because both are just the potential for life, not life itself.
And 21% of abortions are because women can't afford a baby. And more minority women had abortions than white women (49 per 1,000). That would be a lot of babies born into poverty. What would their lives be like? At least this way, the baby feels no pain and the mother can have another baby when she's ready and the mother will have a better life and so will the baby that is born. Just because you don't like abortions, you shouldn't be able to take it away from the people that need it. Don't turn your opinion into the law.
