I was saying that you clearly showed you were pro life, never did I say you were biased toward fact rather than misrepresentation and lies. Though denying the attachment of the fetus to the mother's body may prove me wrong.

I was physically attached but after I was birthed and disconnected I was no longer a fetus, I was a named individual who didn't require a placenta or a special environment. Though I was human I wasn't completely my own person. in turn those rights did not apply to me.

So if a baby kills a mother during birth, does it go to court?

You failed to prove that it wasn't. I would go with the fact that the fetus is attached to the umbilical cord, the umbilical cord is attached to the placenta, and the placenta is attached to the body of the pregnant woman. Therefore it is part of her body and in turn allows her to decide it's fate.

It being part of the female body, she is allowed to decide what experiments are performed on it. I don't see how her willingly saying "please remove this thing" is not accepting permission.

seeing that it is in turn a piece of her body, I don't understand how this is all untrue. Please elaborate

As stated before, the fetus is attached to the umbilical cord, the umbilical cord is attached to the placenta, and the placenta is attached to the body of the pregnant woman. Are you going to deny the truth and claim that a fetus is living but not gaining nourishment from the mother?

You see it as a living being, I see it as a part of the female body...If a picture is worth a thousand words, how come each is different? Are you saying that someone else's perception of this picture is wrong?
