Abortion also is a tragedy
Are guns the real problem? In the ten minutes it took a mass murderer to leave his car, break into a school full of children and kill 20 of them, in those ten minutes, over 20 legal abortions took place in the United States.
One big difference in these killings: the mothers of one group gave their permission. (Guttmacher, AGI, lists 1.2 million abortions per year in the USA, while the CDC lists over 700.000 reported abortions per year).
Let us not lose track of the sad massive loss of life continuing every minute of every day in our country.
