    Well at some point the fetus becomes a human and abortion becomes murder. There is a lot of debate where that line is.

      Actually there is no debate. It’s called a fetus until it is born. It doesn’t suddenly turn into a person with superior rights because some other person suddenly decides that now the woman lost the rights to her own body.
