this is a non-sequitur. I said nothing about "tactics to prevent women from obtaining abortions."

abortion = "dead baby"

high infant mortality rate = "dead baby"

I don't see a reason why one is appalling if the other isn't also. In fact, there are those modern ethicists who agree: your very own Peter Singer (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peter_Singer) argues that infanticide == abortion == right of the mother.

So again, tell me why one is appalling, but the other isn't? Where exactly are the bright lines here?
