The general population doesn’t care about killing new life by about 50%.

That’s the problem.

Prisoners hate child molesters d/t personal experience.

Abortion, convicts, no. I don’t see them caring.

POTUS, when he was in the Ill senate pushed to allow this to go on.

He mad e a speech to Planned Parenthood just last week, while he was in Texas, praising them.

No.

Killing babies and fetuses.

Pshaw.

Gosnell is NOT the only one.

Stats:
Abortions in the United States
Total number of abortions in the U.S. 1973-2011: 54.5 million+

234 abortions per 1,000 live births (according to the Centers for Disease Control)
Abortions per year: 1.2 million
Abortions per day: 3,288
Abortions per hour: 137
9 abortions every 4 minutes
1 abortion every 26 seconds
These statistics include only surgical and medical abortions. Because many contraceptive measures are abortifacients (drugs that induce or cause abortions), it is important not to overlook the number of children killed by chemical abortions. Since 1965, an average of 11 million women have used abortifacient methods of birth control in the United States at any given time. Using formulas based on the way the birth control pill works, pharmacy experts project that about 14 million chemical abortions occur in the United States each year, providing a projected total of well in excess of 610 million chemical abortions between 1965 and 2009.

And yet, Planned “Parenthood” gets huffy when you call these “clinics” abortion mills. The stats point to infanticide on an industrial scale...ya know, like a mill.

I know all that. You’re not listening to what I said:

I hope he is put in the general population and is terrified every second of every minute of every hour of every day for the rest of his repugnant life.

I do not think it helps the pro-life cause at all to lump use of contraceptives with abortion. There is no pregnancy as long as implantation does not happen.

From a scientific point of view, there is nothing really special about the product of conception until such time as it develops a nervous system. At that point, it is capable of self-awareness. Before the nervous system begins developing, the fertilized egg is no more aware than the countless human cells I grow for research. The nervous system starts developing about 3 weeks after conception, near the time when the heart starts to beat.

I also dislike the usage of language like "life begins..." Life does not begin; it is a biological property that is continuously present and passed from parents to children. You can't put dead sperm and dead egg together and magically create life.
