In an abortion the only rights bearing entity is parental. People have the right to make their own choices about medical intervention and this is a right that should only be interfered with where it can be demonstrated that the state's duty to protect some right bearing entity or group (consisting of such entities), or uphold some right bearing entity or (right bearing) group's rights, necessitates such intervention.
In the case of abortion, the procedure is of low-risk (relative to generally available forms of elective surgery); I do not see how the state can demonstrate an interest by recourse to any duty to protect any right bearing entity or any group consisting of such (entities), or to uphold the rights of any such entities or groups.
what the hell are you talking about?
