Abortion is not murder, it is killing. It is not unlawful (up to a certain point), because the FETUS is a zygote, an unfeeling and merely potential life form. It can’t feel anything, or think anything for a long time until it is nearly self-reliant. Is it human?

It is about as much of an issue at that point as cutting skin. It’s a part of them for the vast majority of the time, and as such, is part of their body and subject to their decisions while not sentient. I don’t expect to get you to stand down in the argument anymore than I will to you, but I’m done with people considering that as murder no matter the time.
