The fetal homicide laws include murder in the list of charges that a person can face - for killing a "child in the womb" during a criminal act.
You say "it goes back to rights."
Please explain / expound on that.
My humble opinion: Fetal homicide laws should not apply to a mother who aborts, but they should apply to third parties who kill a fetus while they are violating the rights of the mother.
That is your opinion, I get that.
I'm still trying to get a little more information than only that.
Like you just said, you think a person who (even accidentally) kills a child in the womb during a criminal act should be charged with murder. However, if the woman DELIBERATELY pays Planned Parenthood to kill it herself.... there should be no charges against her at all.
Do you at least see the conflicts of legal interests in that?
Do you think anyone convicted under a fetal homicide law is not going to be quick to point that double standard out to a judge to at least TRY to get their conviction overturned?
I understand that you feel differently, and I understand where you are leading with your questioning, but neither of us is right or wrong, it's just politics in a democracy where society must make life and death decisions because there appears to be an absence of a higher power taking control.
Do you understand that 49% is not equal to 51%?
