I have no conclusive answers on abortion; I think it's as sticky a subject as they come, and while I consider myself pro-choice, I have no idea where to draw the line.
I've been thinking about the idea that abortion is murder, however, and it got me thinkng about a couple of scenarios:
Suppose a pregnant woman trips and falls down a flight of stairs, which results in an abortion. Is that involuntary manslaughter? Is she criminally responsible?
And, for those who think that abortion is not murder, how about this:
Suppose a pregnant woman is attacked by a someone who savagely beats her stomach, resulting in an abortion. Is this crime merely assault against the woman? Or is there any additional penalty for ending the life of her would-be child?
