I'm against the "defense of the unborn" argument.

However it is well known that "self-defense" applies to any persons within your area. So long as you do not leave the situation, and then come back to it (say get a weapon) you have all right to do whatever it takes to remove the threat. Depending on how good your argument is, it also applies to perceived threats as in no-violence had yet taken place.
