TO THE EDITOR
Dear Editor:
his
Ft.
We, the youth of the West
area would just like to take a
minute of your reading and
thinking time to give some facts
on abortion that we think might
be of interest to the locals.
Being that the Supreme Court
passed the law to legalize
abortion, very few have tried to
change it. The first duty of the
government is to protect your
life. If the state can "legalize”
the murder of some, it can
"legalize” the murder of many.
If an unwanted baby’s life is
not protected-neither is yours.
Abortion today "justifies" eu-
thanasia tomorrow. Killing
unwanted babies under 20
weeks could "justify” killing
unwanted elderly over 70 years.
In the nine wars and 199
years since 1775, there have
been 667, 286 American battle
deaths. In 1972 alone, 600,000
American babies were killed by
abortion. That’s a murder-a-
minute for each 525,600 min-
utes in the year.
In one year alone, more
babies were killed by "legal"
abortion in California than were
American servicemen killed in
Vietnam, Korean, Spanish
Mexican, 1812 and Revolution-
ary wars put together.
In war, the medical corps
saves lives. In abortion, the
medical profession kills lives.
Aborted babies get no Purple
Hearts, no Taps, no Memorial
Day.
Abortion techniques pull the
living baby apart, cut him into
pieces, or pickle him alive in a
salt solution. But no anesthesia
is given the baby. A horrible,
painful death-Just think of it!
If you are concerned about
war and the death that it
brings, think about Abortion.
Nazi government “approved”
gas chambers and killed un-
wanted Jews. American gov-
ernment “Approved" abortion
chambers and now are killing
unwanted babies. Your tax
dollars helps pay for this
destruction.
Now, in 1976, we are
celebrating our bicentennial-
200 beautiful years of demo-
cracy and freedom. If we want
to celebrant anymore years of
peace and brotherhood, some-
thing should be done to stop
this tragic killing or there will
be no one to do the rejoicing.
Just take a second to think
and pray for one of the young
innocent infants that has just
been killed while reading this
article.
Thank you for your time and
concern.
