I get to control what happens to my own body. I shouldn't be able to control what happens to someone else's! If I want to be able to control my own person, I have to be willing to allow others the same latitude, and trust that they will be mature enough to take that responsibilities that come with such freedom seriously. The overwhelming majority of women out there do. If people want to be 'pro-life', let them donate their time and energy into helping the already-born people out there who need aid; God knows there are enough of them out there who aren't getting much help. Let the pregnant women worry about their fetuses; the don't need meddlesome busybodies overseeing their medical decisions under the guise of 'protecting life'.
