"Hitler killed 6 million in the camps.
We’ve killed 60 million thru abortion."

The death toll in Europe for W.W.II (1939 - 1945) was circa 35 million, of whom 7 million were Germans, 6 million were Jews, and 20 million (non-Jewish) Soviet citizens.

Among Germans, 20% of the dead were civilians, and among all the others, well over 50% of the dead were civilians.

However bad our situation today is, it doesn't even remotely resemble the suffering those poor folks endured!

It was not my intention to equate the US abortion situation with the carnage of the largest war ever fought on Earth.

It was my intention to contrast the death toll of the US abortion situation with the blatant rounding up of innocent Jewish citizens and coldly and remorselessly killing them in an organized and methodical manner.

Hitler: 6 million Jews.
US: 60 million babies.

My only real point is that both actions are utterly -- utterly -- indefensible.

I think the babies in their previously warm and protected womb being ripped to pieces alive or scorched to death with saline solution or born alive with only their head left yet to be born and having an instrument stuck in their neck and turn to break their spinal cord or born despite an botched abortion and being put on a roof or shoved in a garbage bag to suffer die alone would differ with you.
