I appreciate your adherence to a strict pro-life position, but I simply cannot understand the argument you make here.

If a million babies are being killed, and I can pass a law that saves 1/10th of them, I shouldn’t do it because I can’t save all one million of them?

You could make the same argument against people picketing an abortion clinic — they might stop someone from going in, but if they go home at the end of the day, people can get in after they leave, and people can go to another clinic, so if you don’t picket all of them 24 hours a day, it’s like you are saying “I’m only opposed to abortions happening in this one clinic during the hours I can be here”.

Except, that’s NOT the way it actually works out.

When you continue to sacrifice the only moral, constitutional and legal argument against the practice of abortion, in fact you assure that ALL of the babes will continue to be killed.

We have forty years of blood-drenched history to prove it.

Oh, your sentiment is right but your percentages are off.

Rape and incest are miniscule reasons for pregnancy and life of the mother almost never applies.

If you passed a law against abortion with those exceptions you would save 90% or more of the babies, not ten percent.
