Here's the difference, will. The world at large, let's call it human civilization, has at this point "agreed" that killing people who are already born is wrong. World over it has been codified in laws and in religious texts and is a firmly established principle. (The fact that despite all these laws both religious and secular we kill each other wholesale creates a lot of cognitive dissonance for me, and I don't know why it doesn't for others, as well, but that's a COMPLETELY different conversation.) The whole world is very divided as to whether or not aborting a fetus is wrong, particularly depending on its state of development.
Telling other people that their belief which says that the abortion of a fetus in the first trimester is tantamount to the murder of an 18 year old is an appeal to ridicule which is only going to make people mad because you're effectively calling them a murderer. Now, granted, that's basically what pro-life people are saying anyway, but it's a pretty nasty way to go about making that point.
