A few inches.
That's the difference between life's most amazing event, birth; and partial-birth abortion, where the "doctor" (if one who destroys life can be called a doctor) delivers a baby except for the head, kills it by puncturing the base of its skull, and finishes delivering the now-dead baby.
  When does human life begin?
This is the philosophical question around which abortion debates have been centered, most recently at measures taken to prohibit late term or “partial-birth” abortion.
Anti-choice advocates argue with each other over the start of life as well.

On Oct. 23, the Department of Homeland Security announced that more than 300 illegal immigrants, working in 61 Wal-Mart stores in 20 states, had been arrested.
The illegal immigrants were arrested by Immigration and Customs Enforcement officers, and will appear before a U.S. immigration judge as part of removal proceedings.
“Individuals who have violated U.S. immigration laws by illegally entering and working in the United States are subject to arrest and removal from this country,” read the DHS statement.
