It may be more a case of editorial license, by expressing 'a whole generation', however, in describing 42 million plus, killings/deaths, the editor provides a reference for the staggering total... I prefer holocaust or abomination... In the end, right, wrong or indifferent, the culture of death is a plague upon this nation, where life is cheap and means less/little to the society as a whole. Ye shall reap what ye sow.
Oh I agree, that abortion is murder. I like precise language and wish more people who get paid to write would pay attention.
