Apparently it’s ok to choose to kill your own baby. But if it’s not your choice, it’s murder.

Since the baby doesn’t have a choice (or vote) the law doesn’t care about their opinion.

You are being snide, but this IS the answer.

Fetal homicide is a perp taking something (a living fetus) from a living, breathing person with rights, who WANTS that fetus.

Personally, I think it should be a punishment enhancement rather than a separate offense, but that is legislative pandering for you.
