sorry but you're wrong in the use of that definition of Genocide.
Genocide, crime of destroying or conspiring to destroy a group of people because of their ethnic, national, racial, or religious identity. Raphael Lemkin, a Polish legal scholar, coined the term in 1944 to describe Nazi Germany's annihilation of groups by direct murder and indirect means during World War II (1939-1945).
So if you're going to make "absolute" remarks without backing them up, at least do it properly. I kinda find it a bit of a coincidence that the majority of people who are completely disagree with abortion and want to make it illegal are those who are:
1. Strong Christian backgrounds (not everyone believes in the bible, I'm not saying the bible is wrong in any way but others have thier right to opinion)
2. Most likely has never been put in such a situation or has any idea what those mothers have been through (not saying that you haven't just that most haven't)
3. Use nothing more to back up their argument other then the fact that it's "just WRONG!" (no offence but that's a pretty weak reason)
I apologise if I offend anyone but at least back up your statements

What about Jacking-off? Wouldn't that be Genocide too? I mean, think of the hundreds of potential children a guy kills just by wanking.

Not unless sperm develop into zygotes by themselves.

Of who exactly?
 

 A child.

A single murder is not genocide

Haven't you seen the Last of the Mohicans?

Good thing that the scientific or legal community does not agree with you.

What does that mean?

It means that just because you have this opinion, those who are in power and can actually have influence about such things don't... thankfully.
