parallel between the Dred Scott decision and your position that the unborn are not Legal persons

There are differences as well as parallels. One has been born and the other has not.

Would lynching a black man be wrong if He was your property and it were legal to do it?

No, but then the obvious question is why?
It is not because he is black.
It is not because he is a man.
It is not because he was classified as property.
It is because he is self aware.

You can see that this is the correct analysis if you ponder the similar question Would turning off the resparator of a brain-dead person of any sex or color be wrong?. Human rights don't go to chemicals, they go to consciesness.
