I’m not saying fetuses don’t turn into people, I’m saying that at most you can look at actual damage done once the person actually exists.
Women aren’t houses, so criminalizing their behavior because of the impact it might have in a person who does not yet exist is not great.

Women “not being houses” is irrelevant to the point I made. We criminalize actions all the time when harm isn’t actual, only potential.
