The word "murder" is absurd when used re abortions. Using that word is part of the wacky, dishonest misinformation campaign meant as a scare tactic though it has no substance. Anti-abortion "nuts" know this and always try to emphasize late-term abortions which very rarely occur.

Look, you're entitled to your opinion but I think most anti-abortion activists are nutty, sexist and totally irrational. It's not a homicide issue nor a religious issue it's a medical and personal one. So let the pregnant women and the doctors decide.

In fact aborted foetuses are less developed beings than tadpoles. They don't even take on human characteristics until 5-6 months into the pregnancy. That's when the spinal column starts developing, followed by the brain. Logically, that is when any kind of "human life" might be arguably present. You should know this.

If you care so much, the best thing for you to do is respect women and adopt an unwanted kid. Abortion rights are here to stay. So why not worry about the kids who are born whom nobody wants. There are hundreds of millions of them around the world.
