I can't believe how ignorant and uneducated some people are on this site! YES it is murder! No matter how you try and sugar coat it. A fetus is a live being and should not be "terminated" due to it being an inconvenience. If it is alive, and you kill it...it is now dead...that, my friend is murder! You cannot compare humans to bugs, or a cluster of cells or whatever those morons above me were trying to use to rationalize their idiotic thoughts.
Some of you should be very thankful that your parents didn't share your cold and callous viewpoints on this topic or many of you wouldn't be here to express them.

Some believe that fetus has a soul, some don't. Scientifically, an early fetus has not the characteristics of a human being.
Beliefs are a private issue. Religious beliefs should not guide public politics. Politics should be totally disconnected from any religion (Secularity). Public politics should be made so as the maximum of beliefs and religions could be lived into freedom, according to human rights and rationality.
Thus abortion should be a right. Those who don't like it would not have to use it. Some who need it, should be able to use it.
A little trick ; if you believe fetus has a soul, then you believe that at least all mammals have a soul, and if you believe that everything that has a soul should not be killed, then you should be a vegan. Right ?

ME! I do not believe it is murder! Not all abortions involve pulling out a miniature baby, if it is early enough in the term you can just take a pill and the little glob of cells with NO heartbeat and NO nervous system will simply not develop any further.
So you believe an unborn fetus has a soul...well good for you, but what about people who do not share your obviously religious beliefs? Religion should not be a reason for a law to be created! Yes, I agree that late term abortions are sad and I would not do it myself, but people deserve the right to choose!!

I know that this answer will not likely get the best answer prize because I am not giving the answer you want to hear BUT
God approves of abortion !
I know this is true because of all of the miscarriages, abortions carried out by god.
It is too bad that you anti-choice people are pro war anti liberals because you would seem less hypocritical to me if you cared about the poor , the homeless, those dieing to protect you from invasion from those Iraqis, or those Iraqis dieing because your born again president who thinks he has a direct connection to the all mighty wanted to go to war instead of pursuing more peaceful alternatives. This has played out in the past when another president supported by the Christian Coalition sold weapons of mass destruction to a known enemy of the USA in order to finance a different war in another part of the world.
The point I am trying to make here , unsuccessfully, is that you anti-choice so called pro-life people care about a child from conception to birth but after birth it is a totally different story.
After birth it is a matter of either you are either with us or you are the enemy.
Think about it ! I mean really think about it don't just give it the old , your killing unborn children, thought but think of those who are going through the tough choice of having an abortion for what ever reason. Maybe the couple has found out that the child will have some debilitating disease or genes,.Maybe the mother is just too poor to take proper care of the child, Maybe the mother and or father has had such a miserable life that they do not want to bring a child into this world but the natural drive to have sex somehow created this situation, the condom broke or some other such thing.
On that last note many a abortion clinic would also like to reduce if not eliminate abortions but you anti-choice so called pro-life people are against any form of birth control.
Your link needs a http:// in front of it to work . As it is it is just a URL and not a link.
Some of the pictures on the site are meant to disturb but could have been from an abortion carried out by god :a miscarriage .
While you are trying to disturb people with your graphic images of unborn dead why not think of all the collateral damage or those dead Iraqi children who had a life and memories and relatives Friends and parents who grieve for their death. What about the children who lived but there parents where 'collateral damage'.
Where do you people get off thinking you have some sort of moral authority to tell anyone else how to lead a moral life.
From the few answers I've read most would agree with me but it is very unlikely you will.

I clicked that link, are you trying to shock me? I don't believe abortion is murder, up to a certain point. If the fetus can survive outside the mothers body, then it's a person. If it's still a parasite, then it's not murder.

Why do all you conservative blowhards think that liberals love abortion?Are you saying Repubs don't get abortions?Are you that narrow-minded and stupid?Most liberals want people to have a choice.No one wants to have an abortion,but circumstances might merit the option.The fact is,like it or not,unwanted children is a problem that affects everyone.You Repubs are always attacking Dems about govt. programs.Who the hell do you think pays for unwanted children?You do.I do.I don't like abortion,either.But I'm pragmatic enough to realize the people involved in the decision should be the ones making it,not the govt. No,abortion is not murder if done in the appropriate time frame.

Do you think that squashing a bug is murder, too? While the mass of cells that is aborted may be ALIVE, that doesn't make it a human. Its not a person until it has a soul, and it doesnt have a soul until it is separate from the mother's body.

I do! and no I am not going to click on your link... I really don't understand how people that supposedly care so much care so little for people... pro life people care so much for the embryos and the fetuses and could care less about the newborn babies, I'm sorry if caring about the child outside of womb seems more on the top of my list

Since abortion is legal it is by definition not murder. I don't need to see your link to know that.
