That's just not possible.

Nope. Show me where basic biology has been denied?

Nope - just the start - based on rational principles.

Nope - murder is still more offensive. But then, abortion is not murder.

You do realize that you'd be one of the first ones to go, right?
Anyway, justify that condition being included and it might be considered.

If any dumbass would kill or maim another "legal" person (even a fetus), their dumbasses would be responsible for their actions. However, let 2 dumbasses create a new life and one of them is allowed to kill and maim that new life?
Yeah - because that new life is not a legal person.

Don't be such a dumbass. There is a whole range of options available to us.
1. I value free autonomous life most - normal humans.
2. Next is life with capacity with autonomy not practiced - babies, old people, insane etc
3. Life with potential autonomy. - fetuses.
4. Life - animals/plants.
And at the bottom of the ladder is, life with autonomy that chooses to infringe upon other person's autonomy. By choosing the most valuable human faculty to negate it in others it has fallen from most valuable to the least. You seem to be a good candidate for that Cat.
