Technically a fetus is a parasite. A women has the right to remove such an organism, however unethical it may seem. This does not mean that killing the fetus is automatically a right as well.

In early-term abortions, the fetus must be scraped away to be removed. This kills the fetus.

Yet, in late-term abortions not only could the infant fetus possibly survive outside the mother, but delivery must be induced anyway. Not even medical reasons require the organism to be killed. Halfway through the delivery it is held so only its head is out and it can be lethally lobotomized. Because the delivery is interrupted and prolonged when killing the organism, the mother is at even greater risk than if the infant is delivered alive, prematurely.

There are four reasons for actually killing the fetus in a late term abortion. The first is the desire to save the baby from the future pains of life, minus consideration of the lobotomy pain. The second is the desire to erase all evidence of the unwanted pregnancy. The third is the desire to shirk responsibility for the organism. The fourth is the desire to practice eugenics.
