It's not a choice

To the editor:

(re: “Abortion is murder,” July 11)

I agree with Mr. Joe Bialek when he states “abortion is murder.” So-called progressives call it a “choice,” as if a person is simply making a decision on what to have for dinner. They want it to sound so innocent.

Since Roe v. Wade, medical science has made many advances, some of which pertain to the unborn. It’s proven that they can feel pain, and also can survive much earlier outside of the womb than was previously thought.

The fact that New York has passed the bill allowing a woman to abort right to the last second is nothing less than murder in my estimation. The fact that the legislature cheered just proves how immoral as a society we have become.

When the unborn citizen cannot count on their fellow citizens for protection, we are in trouble.

How do we remedy this situation? First, we must re-elect our great pro-life president, Donald Trump, and hope that he gets the opportunity to replace Ruth Bader Ginsburg, who has the blood of so many unborn children on her hands.

Second, we must defund Planned Parenthood, which profits off the murder industry of abortion, often in communities of color.

Lastly, we must pray that the majority of Americans will learn to take responsibility for their actions and not deny the unborn their right to a beautiful life.
