So if you were doing drugs, then that is your body to do with what you want right. You should be able to put in your body what you want. Except doing drugs is illegal. You go to prison for that. If you decided to sell your body, that is your body and you should be able to do what you want with it, except that is illegal to. You go to prison for that. So if the gov has the right to say you shouldnt sell your body and you shouldnt put drugs into your body and if you do there is a punishment, why doesnt the gov have the right to say that killing a life that YOU put in your body is illegal? By they way do you not find it strange that our society looks down on crack addicts and prostitutes and finds it justice if they are imprisoned but we rally around murder? I find it very strange.
