Being pro‐life is necessary to defend liberty

Abstract

States that to remain consistent, abortion can not be justified as all individuals have certain inalienable rights, including the right to life. Argues that abortion creates classes of people who have no rights and can therefore be killed. Compares this with property rights under which masters formerly possessed slaves and asks where these rights end.
