It is considered murder by like half of people, just not so much by the other half. But it's one of those classic big issue problems that's become so polarised that everyone's on either the pro-life side or the pro-choice side, not realising that both of these are wrong, and leaving very few people left to work out a better solution.

This is also bullshit. We know the solution.

We've seen it in Africa and several other states/countries

The solution is as few unwanted pregnancies as possible via promotion of contraception, sex education and easy access to abortion.

Net result is always very few abortions which are done safely. Which is the net best goal for pro-life and pro-choicers.

The problem is people get caught up in emotion and atively work against the methods which achieve that goal.

Close but not far enough. Obviously as few abortions as possible is the aim and in the US at least abortion is at the lowest it's been since before it became popular, but there's still nearly 20% of pregnancies being aborted which is a lot.
More medical and societal progress with this in mind would be required to cut down further on the reasons people seek abortions in the first place. Until then everyone's still picking sides.
