Quote by: kingjust Just to start off an unborn child cannot stand up in the mothers womb, that assumption leads into the fallacy that an unborn child can hold it's weight (in which you say stand up). I don't know where you got that notion or where you read it. Secondly, I would say when the imbilucal cord is cut, the magical wand of congress bestows rights onto a child. No, but really, no body can say when any one has any rights. You think we have freedom of speech, guess again. But with the abortion issue, the subject IMO is dead. I agree with abortion before 12 weeks, anything after, set up for adoption if you havn't already grown attached to your child. Be it as it may, everything boils down to the right to choose, which can never be taken away from the person making the choice. And the choice of when, how, where, and who will do the deed will always be left to the woman, period.

Even during this time period, you can be charged with murder of the fetus, if you have killed it and the mother.
