What candidate’s support permits

“Rep. Syed is … committed to protecting our reproductive health care rights and safeguarding our ability to decide about our own bodies,” wrote Lynn Stanczuk in her letter to the editor of Oct. 28. Ms. Stanczuk is simply parroting the line heard or seen so often. But the issue is really not about what may be done to her body, but what is being done to her helpless, innocent child within her body.

That helpless, innocent human child, recognized as such by the doctors of the AMA, is really the one who is being attacked against its will. Real-time video shows just how aware the child is of what’s going on and how desperately it is trying to evade the abortionist’s tool of destruction. So who is really being deprived of the ability to choose its own fate and decide about what happens to his or her own body? The mother who is requesting and approving the execution, or the infant in her womb who thought it was in the safest place in the world?
