In the eyes of the law there is zero difference between those two actions which is why when you look up your invented phrase, 'premeditated killing', it automatically defaults to homicide/first degree murder definitions.

None of which changes the FACT that abortion is the premeditated killing of a human being.

That is exactly why I used the word "killing" instead of "murder".

You used the invented phrase 'premeditated killing' which = murder.
Killing and murder are not necessarily synonymous. However when you combine that word with premeditation and a person it becomes homicide. Homicide is illegal in every state, a premeditated abortion is not.

Yet, abortion is the premeditated killing of another human being.

Negative.
The statement says exactly what it is due to the use of "killing" instead of "murder".

Two words.
Different meanings.
If you chose to kill a human being through abortion, was it premeditated?
Yes.
What's the difference?
Murder is UNLAWFUL.
Killing is not.
Try answering my questions
If I kill another human being via any other method is that unlawful?
If I kill another human being via any other method is that unlawful?
If abortion is not the premeditated killing of another human being, what is it Gus?
You are causing loss of life (definition of killing) to another human being.
We can't call it murder because currently it's legal to kill a human being, in the beginning of their life cycle.

I wonder if there are guys that knocked up a girl and never knew.
I wonder how many half-siblings from the 'free love' era unknowingly married each other.
