Given that a successful abortion results in the harm (specifically death) of a human being. This is the intended result. (Not exactly fitting under the Hippocratic oath. I’m assuming, that you are not trying to indicate that every legal abortion would result outcomes as you described above, if they where made illegal. While I think that it is difficult to calculate, I also think it’s difficult to say that less harm is done with legalized homicide.
How about, we educate people. Teach of the risks of doing a alley way abortion. Give them
support, and do every thing possible to discourage the on demand killing of these human beings. Would you agree to that?
This one I can actually get behind. I would still discourage making it illegal until we actually get to the point where abortions are really rare, which I honestly doubt will actually happen. The only way we can reduce abortions is by reducing the demand, and reaching a point where abortion is rare enough to justify its illegality may actually be impossible.
Also, given that the vast majority of abortions happen before the fetus has even developed the capacity to even be properly sensate (roughly around the third trimester, where abortions become extremely rare and almost always happen due to severe problems), it's really not that hard to use a less harm justification.

And, like Roadrunner, you chose to use an image of one at a stage when abortions become very rare. And, for the record, it's not exactly inherently parasitic, but it can certainly become parasitic in the wrong circumstances. Seriously, look at an acorn, call it an oak tree, and then tell me that a fetus still counts as a full-blown person.

Isn't supporting that kind of sanctioned murder the same as, according to your logic, supporting abortion?Not to mention if he believes abortion is murder . Would execute a woman for having one . And no the excuse she didn't kill it is bullshit . If i hire some to kill someone else it's still murder .
