Let me see if I can answer your concerns/follow-up questions.
If a person (baby) is born prematurely at 6 months why don't we just let it die? The answer is obvious. That person, for whatever reason came out of the womb earlier than expected. In most cases the parents will want to see that premature person given the best medical care possible because they recognized the little thing to be a person.
With that in mind, now try to justify killing the same person at six months of development. The only difference is the location - inside versus outside the womb.
Let's carry this a little further. Is it right for someone or a group of people to apply an arbitrary standard on the taking of a life? Should that standard be applied at one, two, three, four, five or six months? At 8.9 months? At conception?
How does that group of people defend that arbitrary standard? Notice that I said "arbitrary." A standard must be derived from factual information and concrete evidence. If a standard is derived by arbitrary means then that standard can be changed over time.
1 + 1 has always equaled 2 for as long as the universe has existed. Mathematics hasn't changed. Science doesn't change. Now there are some scientific facts we may not know. When that information becomes available, we have more to go on to adjust the standards.
For thousands of years, we didn't know what the back side of the moon looks like. With the advent of space craft, we have an accurate picture of what it now looks like.
Even though it has always been understood that an embryo is, indeed, a human being, we have more scientific information available to back up that premise.
The pro-death crowd, by advocating a post-birth abortion like New York, have made the pro-lifer's point. The only difference in the abortion advocate's mind is the size, location and level of development of the person they want to abort (kill).
Even some folks in favor of abortion have recoiled at the thought of killing a new born baby. Those same folks now have to ask themselves the question; if it's wrong to kill a new born baby then why is it okay to kill the same baby just because it is living in the mother's womb?
Why do I get the feeling that this is the same girl who has a “premature” baby at 6 months - 6 months after her marine returns from deployment
Does anyone else think this might be a guy?

No you're being daft because you're comparing apples and oranges just to play devil's advocate. Anyone who has taken a college level developmental biology class or read a text book unequivocally knows when a fetus is alive, as has been illustrated above.
An apple to an orange? Where would that be? I was talking about the definition of prohibition, which you used incorrectly. Either stay on topic or drop it. You made it about abortion, not me. I do not give one shit about your position on abortion or your ability to read a basic college text book. As far as "devils advocate" is concerned I will repeat myself again, and please pay attention this time, I am not going to get into a debate about the merits, or lack thereof, concerning abortion. Based on that there is no devils advocate.
For the record I'm with mooncake in this argument. However.......
Bitcoin holder dies with password to account holding $190m
Canadian crypto exchange QuadrigaCX says it cannot repay most of $190 million in client holdings after its 30-year-old founder Gerald Cotten, the only person who knew the passwords to its “cold storage,” unexpectedly died in India in December 2018, Coindesk reported on Friday.
In a sworn affidavit with the Nova Scotia Supreme Court, widow Jennifer Robertson said that QuadrigaCX owes its customers some $190 million in both cryptocurrency and fiat money. QuadrigaCX has filed for creditor protection because it says it cannot access the funds stored in “cold storage,” just the comparatively smaller amount in a “hot wallet” used for transfers.

Cut it out guys. I didn't post that video to start a discussion.
Trying to change people's minds about such things through internet debate is a waste of time and pixels.
The video is motivational. No discussion necessary.

I did? I don’t think so.

We were talking about a law prohibiting the murder of a human being (there’s your apple, also #4 in the above link) and you chime in comparing it to the prohibition of owning an object (the orange) in a vain attempt to liken the two and point out some nonexistent hypocrisy.
I have more interesting things to waste my time on now.
Twitter called the glittery dog nuts “a trend,” but the groomer behind this, Jordan Burns of Louisville, KY tells People that it’s not a trend, no poodle was harmed in the making of those sparkly balls
You have zero reading comprehension. I agree at this point it is best to move on.
The elimination round at South Coast Raceway’s ‘Wild Bunch Wars’ event between Dean Cleary in the Pontiac and Jason Duncan in the Ford Capri. Jason’s throttle got stuck wide open on the burnout, sending him across the track, careering into the back of a stationary Dean Cleary, then into a 180-degree spin where he proceeded back towards the start line with the throttle still wide open.

That's pretty nuts!!!

Guess he forgot about turning the key off or shifting it to neutral. Run aways are scary shit, but keep your head on like everything and then it’s just a inconvenience.
I don’t know. It’s kind of ballsy
