Some people believe abortion is murder.  Others do not.
Some of those that do so think that abortion should
be illegal, for the same reasons that murder is illegal,
even though they know many people disagree with them.

Some people believe killing animals for food is murder.
Others do not.  Some of those that do so think that
killing animals for food should be illegal, for the same
reasons that murder is illegal, even though they know
many people disagree with them.

Can someone please explain to me why abortion should
have a different legal status than killing animals?
