Dude, you've lost the plot completely, and now I really do believe you're just trolling. What you just described is being pro-choice. Tons of people believe that abortion is ethically wrong but could recognize that:
a. Banning abortion doesn't stop abortion;
b. The life of the fetus is not the only life at stake in all circumstances;
c. That one's own ethics are not necessarily universally held;
d. That the number of abortions has been going down under the current US laws.
... And a whole bunch of other considerations.
