All around me were the modern libs, many self-proclaimed Buddhists. Buddism forbids killing a worm or any living human being. Modern libs get around this by saying it's not a human being until it exits the womb, and besides, remember, it's a "woman's right to choose". I digress, the point about modern libs in the hills is that they are against cigarette smoking. They toke up all day long on Marijuana, but pull out a cigarette & you become as evil as an owner of Wal-mart!

Connecticut decision of 1965, is based on a lie. Abortion is a crime, not a right. But the most fundamental fact is that abortion at any time, whether one moment after a person begins or two weeks after a person begins is just as serious, just as ghastly, and just as cruel. A dead baby – a child robbed of his right to life – is no less to be mourned because of his age.

Her father was dragged into the street and shot publicly for all to see. People in the past may have claimed they didn't know about what was going on, but I say they didn't care. I believe the hate and rhetoric of that day was powerful, and it was part of what convinced the population of Germany to do the horrible things that they did, but I also believe the people of that country went along with it for some reason. Am I saying the entire population of Germany wanted to kill all Jewish people? No, but I am saying many of them were sold a bill of goods that they wanted to buy or had no problem buying.
