Right To Choose?

As your basic Democrat.... I praise a societies respect of a woman's right to choose what to do with her body! It is fundamental. I am not crazy about late term abortion though. I think it is a bit heinous. What are your thoughts?

At what point does a fetus quit being a part of the woman's body and start becoming a human being?

@Riverman After it is deemed viable. It is not until after a few months, at least.
@Riverman Depends what parameter you're measuring it by. I say a life is only living once born and able to breathe on its own.

@Qwerty14 This seems to be the crux of the issue doesn't it? How to make that determination.

@Qwerty14 I lean toward that. Actually, I would go after 6 months as a parameter. Just to try and meet the lifers half way.
@Riverman Yeah. Personally I think science should be the judge. It's the least biased metric we have.

@Qwerty14 Since when did lifers care about Science?
@JustinOnTheRoad Let's not have an "us Vs them" debate

@Qwerty14 The right's war on Science is never acceptable.
