A different Hypothetical
Here's a different question which is perhaps less emotionally charged:
If the pro-life side actually believes that a fetus is a life the same as a living child, then why has the SD lawstipulated only a five year prison sentence for doctors who perform abortions and nothing for the mother or other accomplices (like who ever drove her to the clinic)?
Does the pre-meditated "murder" of a "child" warrant only a five year sentence?
If a mother and father hired a hitman to smother their week old baby, would the only criminal sanction be a five year jail sentence for the hitman and nothing for the parents?
