Topic: Abortion
Quote: (gen\xc2\xb7o\xc2\xb7cide - n. \nThe deliberate and systematic destruction of a national, racial, religious, political, cultural, ethnic, or other group defined by the exterminators as undesirable.\n[snip]\nAbortion supporters are infuriated at the notion that abortion is comparable to the Holocaust because they incessantly argue that the unborn aren't people.
Response: That's a bit of a sidestep. Abortion is not genocide because abortion is not destruction of a certain group of people based on race, religion, ethnicity, etc. There is no way to make a case for abortion being genocide without making capitol punishment qualify as genocide. Frankly, I think it's easier to do the latter (yet most pro-lifers are also pro-death penalty).\nIf you want to make an argument, then make an argument. But don't call abortion genocide; that's just dumb.
