Your argument breaks down once you recognize that killing innocent persons is not a "state prerogative." To claim that it is is to abrogate the first principle of America, that all men are created equal, endowed by their Creator with certain UNALIENABLE rights, starting with the right to live.

It is also to ignore the explicit, imperative requirements of the Constitution of the United States:

"No person shall be deprived of life without due process of law."

"No State shall deprive any person of life without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws."

Not at all. While you are correct, that is not how the law exists or has been applied, so wasting time arguing on behalf of philosophy will not save lives. What will save lives, is ending abortions sooner rather than later.

Once that is done, rationalize it any way you like.
