Agreed but a fetus is not a person.

How would it feel to just not be wanted and killed because of it. If someone does it to a child or adult or even a dog its inhumane and murder
But if you do it to a helpless life form its fine and legal?
What part of that makes sense?

Let me interrupt your guilt-tripping argument by saying that a fetus has no control over the environment outside the womb which it is in and so when it is born, the mother, father and whoever else (assuming a father and someone else are present) need to care for it. If they cannot, then keeping the child is only going to harm the situation they are in (i.e. financial), which in turn harms the child's well-being. But if it is brought into the situation, it can either be unwanted and rejected by its parents or it can be in such a poor condition it may be given away and feel rejected then too. The good news is the child is still alive but that's about where it ends.
Also, you might want to look up the law because killing any non-human is not murder as the organism is not a person nor a human.

However, if the woman has gotten pregnant by rape, I believe that is definately okay because she had no choice. She got raped...which is illegal! I would possibly even ecourage abortion in this situation. Imagine bringing up your child and saying she got here because of an illegal act...ouch poor kid.

Suppose protection and the pill were used but by chance, both were unsuccessful. Do you support abortion? Why or why not?
