Are Women Who Get Abortions Criminals?

In Canada, there's very few pro-life activists who would go that far. Yes, a "child" was "murdered", yes a crime was committed...but ask them if the mother is a murderer, and watch them stop cold.

This in contrast to the situation in El-Salvador, where the answer is a resounding "absolutely". That fetus is a child, you killed it, you go to jail.

As horrific as that is, it's the logical consequence of an anti-abortion sentiment that considers women to be capable decision-makers. If, like most of the North American uterus-covetors, you believe that women are walking incubators, than you can get with away thinking she was manipulated into an abortion like dumb cow to the slaughterhouse, and blame the butcher.
