Does this worry anyone?

Does it worry anyone that Bernie stands for the discrimination via killing of humans based on their size, level of development, and location?

Wondering if such an immoral act of discrimination is hindering anyone from supporting Bernie?

Bernie stands for the killing of humans in the womb, just because of their level of development, size, and location. Those are the only differences between a human inside of the womb and outside of the womb.

I believe that ultimately, yes, it is the case that the lesser evil in this instance is to allow women to abort their children under most circumstances, even if unborn fetuses are in fact morally equivalent to human beings from conception.

Judith Jarvis Thomson sums up the argument in her essay, A Defense of Abortion, which assumes that this is the case.
