Other moral options to consider

I write to commend the perseverance of the good people who have been peacefully and civilly demonstrating their disgust and abhorrence to the presence of the abortion clinic on 75th Street in Downers Grove just east of the I-355 tollway.

Their signs reading, "Honk if you are Pro-Life," and "A Baby is a Gift," and the poster-size ultrasound photo of a living-fetus in the womb of a woman, before the abortion-mutilation, have been a reminder to me, and to the stream of busy traffic that passes this location on 75th Street, of the inhumanity and barbarity that takes place right under our noses.

Abortion is a sociopathic response ("choice") that needs to be pointed out in the locations wherein it is occurring.

All politics are local. Residents of Downers Grove need to be aware of the needless human wastage in its midst.

Abortion is not the only way to react to a pregnancy. There are other moral options to consider.
