Abortion is Always First-Degree Murder

Abortion has become an enormous debate since the opening of the case Roe v. Wade, and it hasn't simmered down much since. There are those that would tell you that abortion is the mother's choice, since it is "her body", and I will tell you why they are mistaken in a bit. Then there are those who would tell you that abortion is not the mother's choice, and it's not her body: it's the fetus' body. Personally, I don't understand how you could see the argument any other way.I don't think that anyone will argue that first degree murder is wrong. The planned killing of another human being is always a wicked act, regardless of the circumstances. And yet, there are those who would say that and at the same time say that abortion is morally sound and should be perfectly legal. So, let's explore the similarities and differences of these two acts.In order to properly compare two things, it's important to understand the definitions of each. So I added the definition of abortion and first degree murder below:abor·tionnoun\ə-G2;boM5;r-shən\ : a medical procedure used to end a pregnancy and cause the death of the fetusFirst-degree murder is any willful, deliberate, and premeditated murderNow here is where I lose the opposition's argument completely. Abortion is a "medical procedure", and in this context that indicates willfulness. So here we have a pregnant woman, who has to decide to get an abortion, go to the clinic, sign paperwork, sit and wait for this procedure, go into a room, and allow a doctor to rip apart her unborn child. It is plainly in the definition of abortion that the process of ending a pregnancy "cause[s] the death of the fetus". So now we have established that the mother has willfully caused the death of the fetus, with some premeditation (and in many cases much more than some).That's where my argument ends. So let me briefly address some common pro arguments that will likely be brought up. First and foremost, the "it's her body" argument. To be scientific, the fetus has it's own DNA, and is therefore genetically different than it's mother. But there is also the more common sense based argument that by the time a fetus is old enough to be aborted, it can respond to pain, music, has fingerprints, has thoughts and dreams... all of which sounds much more like a person than a "clump of cells" (which is a pathetic argument in the first place, all living things are just different "clumps" of cells.)The most logical argument (which applies to less than 1% of abortion cases) is cases of rape. Along with the fact that this case is very rare, and that most abortions are done for the sake of convenience, it still doesn't justify murder of a baby. Do I think that a woman who is raped deserves to give birth do a child she doesn't want? Absolutely not. Does the scenario justify murder? Absolutely not. The victim has had her rights violated, absolutely and undoubtedly, but that does not justify the violation of the rights of the fetus.In conclusion, I believe the abortion is first-degree murder, and that regardless of special cases, it is always wrong. Murder is never a good solution, and especially when the murder victim is to be an innocent unborn child. In fact abortion does not deal with the mother's body, and justifying any way that she has been wronged by killing the product is immoral.
