Oh. OK. I expect you're going to starve now, because plants and animals feel pain too, or at least they exhibit negative reactions to damaging stimulus, which is what the fetus does.
So if you're going to be upset at "murdering" something that is not human, then you need to stop murdering ALL things that are not human.
And let's not forget that a fetus is not a human. It is a potential human, and to assign the rights and privildeges of a human to it because it is a potential human is absurd.
By the same argument, a 12 year old should be allowed to go into a bar and have a beer, because an adult has the right to go into a bar and have a beer, and the 12 year old is a potential adult.
