If you truly see it as murder, it does become an uncompromisable issue.

Its more of a motivational question you are raising. Are we up in arms about the murder rate in the Mexican border area? We aren't even up in arms about the murder rates in the inner cities. I think people (way more than now) feel comfy when they've defined their own communities. As always, its a sliding scale, but I'm somewhere in the bottom 25% on this issue (none except for rape, incest, health of mom), and just about every pro-Life Catholic I know says they'd accept the national problem if the nation butted out.
Of course they'd have to fight it out state by state, but ultimately people like me move to Indiana. And I bring my poor Irish cousins with me.
