I understand the point you're making (the exclusion of the mother counting as a person is a nice touch, BTW). However, I think it's important to be clear that they are not entitled to their delusional point of view. Abortion pills being safer than acetaminophen is a matter of medical fact, and is not actually up for debate no matter how butthurt they get about it.
