Birth is the moment when it is no longer legal and ok to kill a child.

Simply begging the question helps nobody. The circularity of your response is indicative of the vacuousness of your position in general. The moment of birth is just an arbitrary construct on your part. The real issue is, are unborn children human beings, and should one human being have the right to cause the painful death of another innocent, human being, for any reason they deem fit? Legality is not equivalent to morality. Slavery is/was legal in many countries. Is slavery ok. You basically said it was my right not to have an abortion and yours to, if you wished. That sounds like "don't like slavery? Then don't own one." The Holocaust was perpetrated by a democratically elected government. If morality is determined simply by consensus, why were the Nazi's put on trial? Was it simply because they lost? If fifty-one percent of the population voted to kill all the Jews in America tomorrow would that be alright? The killing of a child five minutes before birth or five minutes afterwards is still the killing of a child. You like to euphemistically dress it up as CHOICE, but the intentional killing of another innocent human being, is, and always will be, murder.
