That's what I mean though... murder doesn't just basically mean 'to kill or slaughter'. So when you step on a plant, you're killing it... so you murdered it? I'm not comparing a foetus with a plant, but merely drawing comparisons in the difficult between "defining" murder.

Furthermore, I'm not "pro-abortion", I am, however, pro-choice. And feel that the choice should not be taken away. The choice also includes the choice NOT to have an abortion.
