If a person believes that life begins at conception, they won't have an abortion.
If a person believes that the thing implanted in the uterine wall is not life, they will feel comfortable having an abortion.
That, is called choice. It's not falling into a "pathetic trap of using each side's 'buzz words'" when it's the the very definition of choice that I support.
I have little need for the labels of "pro-life" or "pro-choice," but if people are going to use "pro-life" I'm going to feel free to call it what it is, and that's anti-choice.
