"Half-Abortions" there is no Zygote, Embryo, or Fetus (AKA Human Life) to abort, it is a woman's cycle. This is a completely stupid bumper stick and a very poor attempt at being offensive or even awareness raising.

Think about it. There are about 100 million ovulating women in the USA. Each month, unless impregnated, they pass an unfertilized egg spontaneously.

The point is that the unfertilized egg is half of a potential fetus. Like the famous Monty Python song "Every Sperm is Sacred", the bumper sticker illustrates that the point at which cells become a "person" is a matter of opinion.

Not to fan the flames of the pro-choice/pro-life debate, but it's obvious that some people believe life begins at conception, others at viability, yet others at detection of brainwaves or heartbeats, and still more at other points. Carried to the extreme, considering every unfertilized gamete to be potential life is not unimaginable.

However, this is an unrealistic approach. It would be enormously impractical to salvage every one of those billions of annual ova (not to mention the many trillions of "unused" spermatazoa that are lost through nocturnal emissions and other means). Leave aside the impossibility of the logistics of gathering all these cells. Where could they be stored? How would they combined for fertilization and who would decide which egg gets which sperm? Since there are millions of sperm for every egg, what would happen to the "extra" sperm? Who would be forced to carry the zygotes to delivery, and who would raise the resultant children? How would the world sustain such a staggeringly large and rapidly growing population? Keep in mind the numbers above are only for the USA; imagine the worldwide impact being about a factor of 20 greater.

It's unlikely that any rational people propose such an exhaustive program. But the whole abortion debate largely rests upon what criteria is used to determine life. To suggest that the difference between menstruation and abortion is slim is a contentious proposition. This bumper sticker is meant to provoke discussion and to challenge established opinions. In that regard, It may be a bit too subtle for some, but it is otherwise effective.
