"No matter what the motive, love of ease, or a desire to save from suffering the unborn innocent, the woman is awfully guilty who commits the deed. It will burden her conscience in life, it will burden her soul in death; but oh, thrice guilty is he who drove her to the desperation which impelled her to the crime!"
An outstanding quote. Strange that the aborticide crowd never quotes their heroine on this topic, isn't it?
To: George W. Bush
The proaborts will find the fruit of their destructive anti life philosophy rather apparent in their twilight years when no one is around to take care of them, or pay their precious social security or underfunded pension funds.
It will be a hard slap of reality.

I agree about the Jews--I knew a girl in college, a rich JAP from Long Island--who had already had three abortions by the time she graduated from high school ("The pill just doesn't work well for me I guess. Good thing abortion's there as a backstop!")
But by and large Blacks don't abort.

But by and large Blacks don't abort.Working in the innercity for almost 15 years I can tell you that is not true..The "human services" workers "counsel" them to get them..
The poor do not have them because the baby is a pay raise( welfare) BUT the middleclass and those that have "counselors "sure do

This article has me in tears. I too used to argue that abortion was about choice. I had a weird rationale for supporting Roe v. Wade, thinking that if the government could pass laws that forced me to carry a pregnancy to term against my will, then it could also pass laws that forced me to abort a pregnancy against my will. (Think China, I suppose.) I'm still not convinced otherwise as far as government laws are concerned, and I don't believe I would have ever considered an abortion if I had become pregnant before marriage or at any other inconvenient time. But....
God blessed me with two beautiful children, and the second one was born two months premature. I sat in the NICU holding her, looking into her eyes, and it occurred to me that there were people who, by supporting abortion on demand, believed that I had a right to kill her.
I've been staunchly pro-life ever since.

Susan B. Anthony... My daughter has recently studied this woman. I made sure to tell her that she has absolutely nothing in common with today's feminists.
She called Rochester home for many many years - along with Elizabeth Stanton - If you folk are ever in town - look me up and I'll take you on a tour of her home -

Susan B. Anthony, now featured on our currency, wasn't thinking of political correctness when she referred to abortion as "child murder." Nor when she wrote: "No matter what the motive, love of ease, or a desire to save from suffering the unborn innocent, the woman is awfully guilty who commits the deed. It will burden her conscience in life, it will burden her soul in death; but oh, thrice guilty is he who drove her to the desperation which impelled her to the crime!" I now have higher regard for SBA and her dollar. I wonder if Sacagawea had anything to say about it...
Thanks for the ping. D. James Kennedy re-aired some strongly pro-life Coral Ridge Hour programs these past Sundays, in recognition of today's 30th anniv. of Roe v. Wade.
Keep praying that the doors will be opened to shine the light on this continuing abomination.

don't forget that feminist icon, Margaret Sanger, the eugenist who favored putting abortion clinics in the inner cities, to ease aborting of black fetuses.

"Samantha," I explained, ever the politically vigilant parent, "Mommy is pregnant. But since Jasmine's only 2 and I'm not married anymore, this just isn't a good time to have a baby. We're lucky women have a choice." I wonder whether Samantha and Jasmine ever wonder what it would have been like to know their little brother or sister, who would be 24 today.
I wonder what he or she might have become.
To: mountaineer
I wonder what he or she might have become. You can drive yourself crazy thinking like that. The art, literature, science, education, productivity and vitality lost since January 1973 is incalcuable. All thanks to Justice Blackmun's emanating penumbra.
