Feminist Susan B. Anthony wrote in response to abortion, "Guilty"

What does that mean? That Susan B. Anthony had an abortion?

The case of Roe versus Wade in 1973 is now believed to have been the official decline of the American system of morals.

Wise beyond her years.

"America needs no words from me to see how your decision in Roe v. Wade has deformed a great nation. The so-called right to abortion has pitted mothers against their children and women against men. It has sown violence and discord at the heart of the most intimate human relationships. It has aggravated the derogation of the father's role in an increasingly fatherless society. It has portrayed the greatest of gifts -- a child -- as a competitor, an intrusion, and an inconvenience. It has nominally accorded mothers unfettered dominion over the independent lives of their physically dependent sons and daughters. And, in granting this unconscionable power, it has exposed many women to unjust and selfish demands from their husbands or other sexual partners. Human rights are not a privilege conferred by government. They are every human being's entitlement by virtue of his humanity. The right to life does not depend, and must not be declared to be contingent, on the pleasure of anyone else, not even a parent or a sovereign."

Mother Teresa (Wall Street Journal, 2/25/94)

The battle continues:

It's Time To Reverse Roe v. Wade and Doe v. Bolton

At ReverseRoe.com, you can take part in the most powerful project to confront abortion there's ever been:

The two women who were the original plaintiffs in the 1973 Supreme Court cases that made abortion legal in the U.S. throughout all nine months of pregnancy, Norma McCorvey (former "Roe" of Roe v. Wade) and Sandra Cano (former "Doe" of Doe v. Bolton, the companion case to Roe)... ... are preparing to bring suit to REVERSE Roe v. Wade and Doe v. Bolton!

I, quite frankly, am surprised she didn't get suspended from school....they usually do this to students who speak of God. Good for her.

This young girl has courage and conviction, rare qualities in these time to say the least. I'd be curious to know what her grade on the paper was.

My sons often wrote about the Second Amendment when they had to choose a topic for an essay. One teacher (liberal) actually admitted to my son that she had changed her views and was more in favor of gun rights as a result of his papers. We conservatives must take every opportunity to educate the sheeple, they mostly only ever hear the liberal slant to any and all issues.

If only she were a typical member of the younger generation of Americans. But alas, she is not. Which is why we are in the state we are in.

Also, abortion takes more lives every year than tobacco, cancer, alcohol related deaths, aids, and car accidents combined (ProLifeInfo.org), an average 1.3 million per year, 3,562 per day, and 1,323,833,145 in the United States since Roe versus Wade in 1973 (ProLife.com)

Interesting paper but her numbers seem a bit odd.

If 1.3 million women have abortions each year that would mean that each year around 1.8% of women have abortions. If you take into account most women are of childbearing age for 38 years and make the assumption that these women will have one abortion during their lifetime then 68% of women will have an abortion during their lifetime.

A billion abortions over the last 29 years in the US seems a little high. Perhaps, she needs to review her numbers.

Excellent peace.

I can name another argument against at least ALL 2nd and 3rd trimester abortions. Those are viable living beings that are being aborted.

I know that for a fact. I was born during the 2nd trimester.

Liberals do not want to know these facts. It might keep some of them awake at night.
