We do this every time. "Murder" s a legal definition. Abortion is legal...thus, NOT murder.
I will hear "sinful", "wrong", "immoral" "awful", etc.
But, it is absolutely NOT murder.
Even though abortion has been made legal, that doesn't mean it's no longer murder in the eyes and minds of those people who oppose the deliberate killing of a future human being.

Those are dumb people.
Some devout people are against even the death penalty. I have no quarrel with that. But, when they say the state is "murdering"..it is just dumb.

Even "dumb" people can see that the Emperor has no clothes.

So then in 1787 black people were only three fifths of a person, right?

I really thought better of you. I'm by no measure "dumb" but I know abortion is murder regardless of any imaginary penumbras divined that provide it the guise of legitimacy.

Agreed, I believe abortion is wrong but calling it murder is just simply ignorance of the English vocabulary.
It is not ignorance of the English vocabulary, rather a deliberate political ignorance of today's science in prenatal development. Sorry the abortion supporters are willfully behind the curve.

So the government shouldn't have power to criminalize unconsented to acts?
huh? Is someone forcing women to get abortions now?

"Legally snuffing out the life of another human being." That works for me. Any arguments?
By definition, murder is illegal. You just defeated your own premise.

Wow. What new science are you talking about? Did they find out the fetus doesn't actually share an organ with another organism? Did they found out the fetus actually breathes air like the rest of us?

None of that defines what is human or what is an individual. But, premies as early as 22 weeks can breath air and don't share organs, yet survive. Keep up your 1930's mindset. It'll serve you well.

Personally, I am against abortion. I think you're killing the future child of someone by doing that. No doubt. My wife recently miscarriaged and her having a D&C (the same procedure they do for 1st trimester abortions) totally blew.
On the other hand, the government mandating what someone can and can't do with their body is abhorrent to me. They are taking enough freedoms away as it is. Freedom to be stupid is something that is given to every citizen in this country.
FWIW that's exactly how I feel about pot use as well. I don't smoke it, but I'd rather have the freedom to do so rather than see people's lives be ruined b/c of some talking head.
I don't believe in the death penalty either, but that's only because I've lost faith that our govt will only send guilty people to death row, or be convicted for that matter.
