I'm pretty sure it's not reasonable to shoot someone in self defense, when the other person is unarmed and pregnant. But maybe that's just me. This is all about punishing a woman for miscarrying. Next we'll hear about women being charged with manslaughter for falling down the stairs while pregnant. "Shouldn't have been taking the stairs when she was pregnant." "She should have known that was a risk!" This is your EXACT logic. It's painting women as being nothing more than incubators. We're not your goddamn incubators. We're people. With rights the same as everyone else. That doesn't change just because we're pregnant.
Maybe YOU wouldn't want to see them punished for falling down the stairs. But that's what this is going to lead to.
