By J.Hancock

1/4 of all pregnancies are terminated-resulting in more deaths by abortion than by all the wars this country has been in. 1/3 of women will have had one abortion by the age of 40. Most of these abortions are for convenience sake. We're not talking about medically indicated abortions. Pregnancy termination for medical reasons is not as common as elective abortion. We are talking about people being irresponsible with their sexuality, and then punishing the unborn when nature takes its course. Abortion is a violent practice, institutionalized by American hedonism, protected by extreme liberal feminism, and legitimized by the silence of well meaning Americans who are uncomfortable telling others how to live. We need to realize that abortion is not about choice, its about irresponsibility, removal of accountability, selfishness, avoidance of consequences, objectification of inconvenient life, disregard for inherent human worth, and above all ……death. Abortion causes the death and suffering of a voiceless class, for the pleasure and convenience of another. It is unjust. Abortion is the single greatest form of institutionalized violence this country has had since slavery, and it is essential we address and eliminate this deplorable practice.
