   You are wrong.   
      
   In the context of the abortion debate, it matters far, far more whether   
   a fetus is a person than it does whether a fetus is a human. As such   
   whenever abortion is debated and someone says a fetus is a human, the   
   purpose of that statement is to argue for fetal rights, which depend on   
   fetal personhood. And often, "human" is used to intentionally obfuscate   
   the true nature of the issue.   
      
   The opponents of the Arizona measure should be honest and call the fetus   
   an unborn person.
