"I have nothing but contempt for these cruel and heartless people who cause so much harm to our vulnerable children when they find themselves pregnant and terrified"

You make it sound like they were kidnapped and inseminated by aliens against their will. Most pregnancies that result in abortions are the result of informed, consensual, sex. Once a new life enters the picture, that life has rights as another Human Being and if those rights conflict with another's rights, then a compromise must be made in favor of the right to life that all Human Beings share.

<<Since when does the status of a Human Being and their claim to the Human Right to life, depend on the whim of another person?>>

"So long as you have no interest in living and no independent or conscious existence."

A very dangerous and subjective standard to be sure. Who is to say what your or my interest in living is? Certainly not those with a conflict of interest in the matter. If I stand to benefit in some way from your death, then I should not be the one making that decision. Also, Human Beings remain dependent for years at the very least. This is not a good reason to deny someone the most fundamental Human Right of Life. Likewise consciousness to some extent is already present in babies that are aborted. Certainly there is zero difference in the consciousness of a baby who was, at one moment in the womb and the next, in the arms of a Doctor. Does an unconscious individual lose their status as a Human Being when they lose consciousness? No they don't and neither do the unborn.

"the mother will often consider it as her "baby" while it is only a fetus whether out sentimentality or love. And that is quite all right and is an accepted part of our language and our culture."

What it does is to demonstrate a glaring inconsistency in the Pro Abortion position. Human existence does not change because we use different words to describe differing stages of development. A toddler is no more, or less, a Human Being than a teen or an adult or a fetus.

"Your entire movement is propelled by deliberately crafted videos and presentations that INTENTIONALLY mislead the public"

You've said that before, but it remains an unsubstantiated claim. The truth is that it's the Pro Abortionists who wish to keep the public from knowing and seeing the truth about the practice of killing innocent Human Beings for profit.
