3. If abortion is made completely legal, mainly because it's a womens right to do whatever they want to with their own body. Is it also alright if a women decides for whatever reason to disfigure a child, remove it's leg, arm, or perform experimental drug tests on the fetus?

Disfiguring or injuring a child is the most serious of crimes Michael... are you confusing child and fetus here? And with regards to a fetus, how is it possible to perform experimental drug tests while still in the womb?

I think what you are trying to say here is akin to the old rollerblader argument, where a woman either deliberately or non behaves in a manner that causes a miscarriage. Maybe she should have known not to rollerblade, or maybe not but whatever, in any case this cannot be considered a crime legally I would think, since miscarriage is something that occurs naturally for a whole host of reasons (many of which are not deliberate on the part of the woman).
