Millions executed through abortion

Posted February 15, 2008 10:00 pm

Burt Constable's column of Jan. 12 brought up the subject of capital punishment. Since capital punishment was reinstituted in the United States in the mid-1970s, about 800 adults have been executed. During that same time, about 35 million developing humans have been "executed."

Were these 35 million humans accused of a capital crime? NO. Were they given a trial? NO. Were they spared "excruciating pain? No. In fact, most of them were torn apart, limb by limb; some had potassium chloride injected into their hearts; some had their brains sucked out.

People who protest these atrocities are called fanatics; those who support them are called "pro-choice''.

Life-giving help for a crisis pregnancy can be found in the phone book under "Abortion-Alternatives".
