And we do put limits even on people's behavior vis a vis their own bodies (drug use crimes come to mind, legal ages on certain substances, etc.). It doesn't strike me as completely unreasonable that the one exception to "you don't have to save someone" would be this one, if there were going to be one. But I also think it may be useful to separate out abortion on demand, vs. abortion after consideration of interested parties' physical heath. Seems a different analysis to me.
I appreciate the distinction, but find it very weak. But rest assured, Bilmore will glom on to it, seeing as how Not Bob stepped on the last finger Bilmore was using to hang onto the plank.
