She's saying that because someone decides to deny "Moral Status" to a fetus, it has no "Moral Status" because someone decided for the fetus.

Since the fetus has no life experience, then when does that fetus gain "Moral Status" without someone making the decision for him/her?

Can't the same be applied to infants then since that child has no life experience?

If I'm reading Pat's comment correctly (didn't watch the video yet) it seems this was a philosophical discussion.  Those kinds of questions would be part of the other side of that discussion.  Not a matter of determining what is legal or law...just a thought discussion on it.
