Why don't you highlight the correct word, namely "person" because a zygote isn't one genius!I'll ignore the iodiotc way that you framed the question, but answer a more reasonable one without your poorly framed (a) and (b).Take this issue back to the beginning's of organized society. Go back to when people left isolated or in small groups on their own.
Ward members of the family or tribe prevent or punish a woman who shopped a stick up her self in a boarded at pregnancy? What are the others people feel when they had the right to demand that the child born? Could they do anything to stop such an action?
Preventing a woman from terminating her own pregnancy is against natural law and natural rights. Pregnancies at the wrong time could be severely detrimental and even deadly to not only the mother, but the entire group.
I do not want some jack ass bureaucrat laden government dictating such a severe burden and health risk to anyone.
If I were a woman, I certainly would not want some gold status jack ass dude with a penis who will never see any baby that I would have, dictating whether not I can or cannot board that baby.
Make no mistake. I hate abortion. I think that it is a savage practice and would never want any of my family members to do such a thing. At the same time, I adhere to a much higher principle of liberty and limited government. Making the decision to choose liberty over something that I hate justifies my resolve.
Those who would use government to tell women that they must carry a child and give birth to that child are no better than the goose-stepping pinko commie bastard's trying to overthrow America. You are all douche bag authoritarian fuck wads and I hope you burn in the Mythical play's known as hell , if such a place did exist (it doesn't).
With all you just said. . .
When should a child's right to the equal protections of our laws begin?
1. At the earliest moment that we can establish with scientific evidence that they are a living human organism and the product of human reproduction?
Or,
2. When we as a society can no longer stomach or justify the denial of their rights anymore?
Anyone?
When should a child's right to equal protection under the law begin? At three months, after which time abortion is an exception and can only be justified by health risks to the mother.
The Constitution says that all persons are entitled to the EQUAL protections of our laws, fucktard.
It doesn't say "starting at 3 months"
