Why Are Abortion "Victims" Accorded Sympathy, But Abortion Doctors Vilified?
Why is the woman who decided, purchased, and initiated the act is a "victim" while the doctor is evil? If abortion is murder, than logically any woman who would have one is completely evil right? Instead, women who have abortions are treated sympathetically, but the doctors who perform them are despicable. Why do you think this is?

Maybe some people think that "evil" abortion doctors persuade women to have abortions with no thought to the fact that women make their own minds up.
In my opinion, the doctor is just doing their job and the woman is their patient.

The Hippocratic Oath, which seems to be ignored these days states, in part, that as a doctor, they will do no harm. Aborting a baby is doing harm. That is as much murder, in the sight of many people, as it would be if someone were to kill a baby that was carried to term, delivered, and then killed. The woman, often times, is led to believe something that simply is not true concerning the baby that she is carrying. Many women, it is sad to say in these "enlightened times" have not a clue about what makes their body "tick". Pregnancy brings out many emotions, and some are simply led astray because out of ignorance, they do not know any better, or are operating on emotions, not rational thought. I do know of, and have met women who once they do realize what they have done, are horrified about it. There are records, albeit not published, that show that some women have committed suicide over the fact that have allowed an abortion. Similar records also tell of women that have died as a result of an abortion. You won't hear of that from the clinics, because such facts are bad for business.

A better question is why are dead soldiers and civilian casualty's of war considered innocent lives lost, and aborted babies not?
