Abortion is not murder.
A fetus is a clump of cells that cannot reproduce, leeches off of its mother, and cannot eat food- (however it can gain nutrients through its mother.) 
Abortion is healthcare.
Cancer kills people and cancer is made out of cells. Is chemotherapy murder? No! It's healthcare!
Not aborting a fetus can kill the mother especially if the mother has problems with birth, finance, cant support it, ect.
"Well she should have thought about that before having sex!"
There are many things that may cause a woman to be pregnant, even if she used protection or uses birth control.
There are things such as rape or a low quality condom.
If a fetus cannot qualify for all 8 qualifications of life, it is not alive.
If you want to bring religion into this, the bible has stated that life does not happen till first breath. 
Now- what if the baby becomes gay? Or trans? Maybe they worship Satan.
When this baby becomes a minority, most people would result into either; killing, extreme measures, mayhaps abuse or neglect, or causing religious trauma.

"Cancer kills people tho so chemotherapy is not murder!"
Birth kills people. Abortion saves.
Getting rid of one life that technically does NOT qualify as life and can potentially harm or kill the provider (Human/Mom) is not murder.
It is healthcare.
Birth or having a baby can..
  • Kill the mom
  • Cause financial problems such as debt
  • Healthcare problems
  • Put the baby in a bad situation
"Put the baby up for adoption!"
  1.  Adoption centers can be pretty shitty.
  2. The mother still has the medical bills, a risk of being killed, or having health problems in general carrying or giving birth to the baby.
  3. The baby will think its mother didn't care for it due to being put up for adoption. (Most likely.)
"That fetus was going to be a baby!"
The future technically does not exist until it happens.
The fetus has potential to be life- but unless something chooses for the fetus to be born the potential is pointless.
