you challenged me to make a logical argument, you thought I couldn't do it... and I did.

Her choice was on the front side, and that choice should have consequences for her and not for an innocent third party.

It is you who are not speaking logically here. Go back to my post about parent and child#1 and parent and child#2, and tell me how you can logically defend forcing a woman to provide life support for a fetus that is not required for a living child, legally. I am not interested in emotional arguements about what somebody should have done or choices they made, forget that. Just the issue of why one "child" gets to infringe on the rights of an adult and the other does not.

I think you can see that legally there is an issue here and everybody on both sides of the argument knows it if you ask me.
