You are missing the point, you do not have the right to impede on his rights.

Until a baby is born, it is my contention that it is a parasite. Which sounds cold, and maybe even deragatory, but it is neither. It is simply a statement of the fact that the baby can not live on it's own, and is subject to the will of the mother. The mother has the right to do with her body as she chooses, and if she chooses to not share it with another creature, I see it as no more damning than being de-wormed.
Tadpole, I would vote for you for President.

Furthermore, I would argue that if the "murder" were consenting (ie: Assisted suicide), then yes, you should be allowed.

a pre-born anything has no rights, because it can not survive on it's own. Now I am against late-term abortions for just that reason. However the abortion law as it stands is sound.

If we are to make abortion illegal, then we must make de-worming, and cancer research illegal too. Because think of all the organisms we are killing, and I for one believe all life is equal.

I am just gonna guess that Tadpole is more willing to be known that the man in office now. Pres. Bush has not returned ANY of my calls or emails.

Tadpole I am sure would not diss me like that, would ya Tad?
