i see nothing wrong with death in and of itself. however, in society no person has the right to end the life of another.

if pregnancy is bringing someone into life, then that should be correctable if the pregnancy was unintended.

all rights branch out from the existence of life, and if the existence of the life was a mistake then the rights are waived to correct that so that mistake is not perpetuated.

many will say that a fetus is not a person or doesnt have a life... what has a 'life' is anything that is alive, and a person is something that is alive that is a human, regardless of what stage of life it is in. a parent cannot kill their two-year-old-terror because they no longer wish to raise it. the only legitimate reason to end someone's life is if the creation of said life was unintended, and that can be known definitively as soon as someone realizes they are pregnant. past that, i see it as an earlier form of "killing your toddler".
