Yes, but I also considered it a child before the day it was born. Is it protected by law the day before it was born? Moving from the womb into the air suddenly makes it human? I thought we might rely on science.

In my State, we do have a fetal homicide law. In the US, 38 states and the Federal government have fetal homicide laws and 12 consider it assault and battery.

Really? You might do the same to me when I send my sons to their rooms to do their homework. So, if a woman WANTS her child, but someone else kills it, you don't think it's different than a slug in the eye?

I understand the reticence of pro-abortion folks to not attempt to hold the line at the birth event, but it truly makes no sense scientifically. The process is a continuum, where it starts as cells and ends up a child. At some tipping point depending on your definition of what a child is, it gets civil rights. I don't believe it's day one, but it surely isn't the day of birth either.
