Society can neither grant nor remove the right to abortion. One's life and body are fundamental. Our only choice is to infringe that right--not to validate it.

So it is an interesting concept as to how developed a fetus would have to be before certain fringe members of society would pass a law that would allow them to forcibly capture a woman and cut her open and remove the fetus. Presumably (as they have already dishonored the right to life) they would then just simply leave her to die in the blood and call for the sweepers.

Crude and disquieting picture, but people must realize that freedom to live is the right we are discussing, not the "right" to abortion. If the fetus is to be made the interest and the property of society, then there are myriad consequences and correlatives which must be acknowledged and endured. If that were ever to happen in my lifetime, I would know that life with my peers was no longer worth respecting, and I would head into the deep woods to live out the remainder of my life with the wonderful animals...
