The positive thing about these threads is that is shows us who is who on here.
Yep, it also shows just who are the BIG GOVERNMENT statists here, Ayn Rand would be disappointed.
At what point in a pregnancy do you, or the government, have a legitimate "compelling interest" in the pregnacy? Conception? Viability? Perhaps at the moment of "quickening"?
Is the baby a human? Yes. Is that human a distinct individual? Yes, as they have unique DNA. Therefore, the baby is a "person". Read the Constitution, the Bill of Rights, and the various laws concerning murder and self-defense. The answers you seek are right there.
If you are going to try to make a libertarian argument, please attempt to do so. It should be an interesting one as you twist around one individual being able to arbitrarily kill another for mere convenience.
