No abortion is not murder, some will argue that you are "killing" an innocent life, a human child, but it is neither a life or child yet. By definition, by scientific definition the fetus is a parasite, it cannot exist outside of the mother, it cannot breathe for itself, nor feed itself it requires the mother to gain nutrition, Abortion should is actually saving mothers because what if you get raped, what if you aren't mentally or financially stable and you get accidentally pregnant? It should be the mother's choice, and if your argument is to "Send them to foster care" the foster care system is already near collapsing, it is very underfunded and children wait months before being adopted. As for the claim that Abortion saves mother's, statistics show that nearly 40% of all mother die after giving birth.
