I'll take them one at a time:

I saw let her. I'd rather she be legally protected and tested but it's her body to sell.

Well we let people sell their blood and plasma and hair. I remember a story on men selling their testicles. So I guess we already allow that.

Depending on the drug it is probably illegal to use. But I don't care if she does it herself as long as she is not a threat to others.

Again, *I* do not have a problem with it. We have too puritan a view on the human body here anyway as far as I am concerned. But I know there are laws against it because it can affect others.

Will she clean up after herself? I think this would fall under the same as the public nakedness in the sense that it affects others.

I always assumed it was because the woman is solely affected by the pregnancy (her body) and the fetus is not granted as rights as it is not a person yet.

Again, I know people don't like it. I'm not here to argue in favor of abortion just to discuss the point made that everyone who is "pro-choice" should be for the death penalty.
