The child who's aborted is the least culpable person who's involved in the whole affair.

But also by far the least capable of self-defense � which makes its involvement (by what logic?) a capital offense with no right of due process, advocacy, counsel, or appeal?

I'm fully aware of the unimaginable anguish of unjustifiable pregnancies, and I'm not in the least insensitive to them � I'm just baffled by the notion that the least culpable individual who's involved is supposed to pay the penalty for it. (And remember that that anguish, no matter how much the execution of the most convenient participant may ameliorate it, isn't going away.)
