Pro-choice feminist mocks unborn baby photos

In a pro-choice article, feminist Suzanne V Paczensky mocks unborn babies by saying:

“Some pro-choice advocates consider the emphasis on the humanity of the unborn misleading or deceptive, betraying “ignorance and contemptuous attitudes to women” by diverting attention from the woman carrying the child representations of the unborn in “tearjerking pictures of the sweet little pink embryo with it sad eyes staring out of its plastic bag, pleading: me live!”

On murder and swatting flies

Gwen Goldsmith, a 42-year-old actress and seminary student from Brooklyn, was recently interviewed by Lane for “The Abortion Diaries.” On the abortion she had:

“I believe that an abortion is a murder of a fetus — different ethically than the murder of a child, but still a death,…But I swatted a fly earlier; I’m a murderer. I’m also a carnivore. It’s a choice.”

Laura Barcella “The A-word” Salon  SEP 20, 2004

9 – 10 weeks. Over 100,000 abortions are done at this stage every year. Is killing this baby equivalent to swatting a fly?

Go here to see what the abortionist’s instruments do to a baby at 10 weeks.

Pro-choice author bemoans dismal poll numbers

From pro-choice activist and author Alexander Sanger:

“The pro-choice idea that abortion should be legal and available to all women who want one no matter their circumstances garners in polling the support of about one quarter of the American people. We have to do better than that.”

Post-abortion woman: “I Come First”

A woman who had an abortion gives advice to other women facing the same dilemma:

“You’ve got to tell yourself, I am worth a hell of a lot, and I come first. ….my well-being, my peace, my value comes first. The focus of my life should – and can – be me,… So when the outside says you should be thinking of the child, say No. The only thing you should be thinking about is you.”

 Quoted in Patricia Launneborg Abortion: a Positive Decision (New York: Bergin & Garvey, 1992) 72

Baby when it’s wanted, fetus when it isn’t

1st trimester. A “baby” to be cherished or a “fetus” to be aborted?

Pro-abortion columnist Ellen Goodman :

“Over the years, I’ve rejoiced at sonograms and picked names for what we call a baby when it’s wanted and a fetus when it isn’t.”

Pro-Choice group: It is cheaper to abort children than support them

Only a few years after Roe V Wade, a pro-choice group made the following argument that the state Medicaid program should pay for abortions for the poor:

7 weeks. Most abortions are done around this time or later

“Financing abortions for the poor is far less expensive than the cost of childbirth and welfare support for unwanted children,” he wrote. “So the government is actually paying out your tax dollars to force poor women to become mothers.”

Brief for Appellees at 185, Harris v. McRae, 448 U.S. 297 (1980); and Norman Dorsen, ACLU Campaign for Choice fund-raising letter to “Dear Friend,” n.d. [received by the writer on 29 Sept. 1979].

It is easier easier to kill poor children than support them. But this is not helping the less fortunate- or the country. Killing children to save money is wrong on a profound level.

Woman who had 3 abortions: “I’m the most important person in the world”

From a woman who had 3 abortions

“A lot of people would argue that, that’s a life, but I say, what about my life?… Do I think abortion is pro-life? It’s pro-my life, and I am the most important person in the world and I want to make myself happy.… A good friend of mine has 2 kids, she’s a perfect mother, roast on Sundays. Good for you, if that’s what you want, more power to you. Let me have what I want.”

Babies are “dangerous epidemics” says Planned Parenthood medical director

This quote shows how Planned Parenthood views children. Mary Calderone was Planned Parenthood’s medical director around the time when Planned Parenthood 1st started doing abortions:

“We have yet to beat our public health drums for birth control in the way we beat them for polio vaccine; we are still unable to put babies in the class of dangerous epidemics, even though that is the exact truth.”

Mary S Calderon M.D., Medical Director, Planned Parenthood Federation of America, and founder, Sex Education and Information Council the United States, SIECUS newsletter, February – March 1960

President of Catholics for Free Choice: Consider “developing life”

From a pro-choice essay entitled “Is There Life after Roe? How to Think about the Fetus,” in the winter 2004/5 issue of Conscience, Frances Kissling, (president of Catholics for Free Choice) told prochoicers:

“[It is preferable to be] avoiding a coarsening of humanity that can result from the taking of life. Pro-choice advocates may bristle at such a claim, [but they would do well] “to present abortion as a complex issue that involves loss and to be saddened by that loss at the same time as we affirm and support women’s decisions to end pregnancies.”

…

“After thirty years of legal abortion and a debate that shows no signs of ending and has no clear winner is it not time to try and combine rights and morality to consider both women and developing human life?”
