Why do you say that?
How could that be possible, logically?

A fetus is not independent of the mother, so how could it have individual rights?

How could you legally recognize as an individual, something that is not individual?

How could you legally negate the rights of the mother, to natural abortion by starvation, dehydration, violence?
Yes the only means for a fetus to survive in the womb is via the mother.

However, look at that baby girl who was born at 21 weeks into gestation. An incubator was keeping her alive and continuing to help her develop, right?

She now has "rights" because she was born......so if she has rights becomoing fully developed in an incubator then why not in the womb??

What really is the difference?
