To answer your question though, I personally don't have any problem all the way through morning after pills. But murder is when society says it is, not when a court says its okay for us to say when it is. So I'll take the position where the people in my state do.

I'd say those tears weigh about the same, so in a wash, you err on the side of leaving the options open - choice.
As to your second paragraph, sounds pretty arbitrary.
And you really don't want to know what society thinks about freedom of choice, because it will upset you. Right now, the polls are dominated by a vehement minority who actually gives a shit because they're fighting an uphill battle. Women will be quiet now while abortion is legal, but if it becomes an issue for the states and is thrown up to votes, you'll see women come out in droves for the pro-choice side. If the pro-lifers get the battle they're looking for, they're going to get killed. They're underestimating a much more sizable, but quiet opponent.
You know... I might be tempted to agree with you. Lets flip Roe and lets have it all be decided by statewaide referendum. But what will the pro-lifers do when they lose? Will they promise not to seek an amendment to the constitution or throw their own reverse version of "Roe" at the Court? I doubt that.
