It really isn't that simple. This argument cannot settle the issue.

The differences between "if you oppose abortion don't have one" and "if you oppose infanticide don't commit it" still need to be examined. There are obviously significant differences, but do they lead to different conclusions?

I'm incredibly skeptical of any abortion argument - from either side - that includes the phrase "this is simple". I've never seen a 'simple' argument that didn't fail in some way to account for some important angle of the issue.
