I could easily do the same thing to you...so you could honestly justify holding a living, innocent woman's body hostage for nine months and force her to carry and give birth to a child she does not want?

My point was I do not wish for the government to interfere in a woman's medical issue. There are many, many reasons for having an abortion and very few of them are done as a method of birth control. It is never a nice or happy thing to do, but that's life, and sometimes you have to make tough decisions.

But making a decision about your own body and what will or will not happen to it is not analagous to the government killing criminals, no matter how hard you try to make that case.
