Ben Shapiro Schools Liberal Student on Abortion: 'If You're in a Coma, Can I Stab You?'

During a Q&A following his Sept. 14 speech at the University of California-Berkeley, author and columnist Ben Shapiro explained that a first-trimester fetus has moral value even if it is only potentially sentient because an adult human in a coma is in a similar "potentially sentient" condition and it is not okay to stab or kill someone who is in a coma.

Shapiro, the editor-in-chief of The Daily Wire, spoke at Berkley at the invitation of the Young America's Foundation chapter on campus. His speech was entitled, "Say No to Campus Thuggery."

After the speech, a student asked Shapiro, “My question was about abortion, and I just wanted to know why, exactly, do you think a first-trimester fetus has moral value?”

His answer is here
