The fetus is not a conscious being and neither are you or anyone else under the proper effect of anesthesia. So if a doctor kills a patient under anesthesia then the doctor committed no crime and should not face any consequences because the doctor didn't kill something conscious that "suffered".

If you say that being under anesthesia is a temporary state then so is the state of being a fetus.

Children don't have the same responsibilities and rights as adults, but that sure as hell doesn't mean anyone can go and kill them without society batting an eye.

The limits to the things that a children can do are precisely attempts to keep the child healthy and alive, it is not some arbitrary attempt to rid the child of his humanity.

That's exactly how I got away with murder. I shot my first wife in the head while she slept. No consciousness, no suffering. Same thing as abortion.

I can't agree with what you find acceptable, but I have to admit that your views are consistent.
