When the daughter grows up and has children of her own, imagine the stories she can tell them about their grandparents. "Yep, sweet child, my parents wanted you dead".

How horrible! It doesn't say how old she is. I assume at least 18 since she's in college? How could they force their adult daughter to have an abortion against her will!

what can b said?

What's the big deal-- the parents are just being good Democrats.

This is one jury I'd love to be on. They should be charged with the attempted murder of their grandchild, as well as kidnapping their daughter, but of course, that won't happen in our benighted country.

I would love to hear the reasoning behind this. What do you suppose the excuse is going to be? Parents forcing an abortion on their daughter is truely inhumane.

[Kimmers]

I feel so sorry for this girl. I hope there is an adult in her life that can help get her through this. Prayers for this young women.

Something just doesn't jive with this whole story. I'm no criminal expert, but, there seems to be a large piece missing here in my mind.

Quite possibly, that large piece missing, could be my mind! :(

I would like to say that there probably is no clinic in New York where you could bring a woman bound and gagged and have them perform an abortion on her. I would really, really like to be able to say that.

Nicholas Kampf, 54, and Lola Kampf, 53

Hmmm. With a family like that maybe the child should be named "Mein"...?

[freedomfiter2]

He said it's unclear how the alleged kidnappers expected to get a doctor to perform an abortion against the young woman's will or why the parents acted as they did.

They weren't taking her to a doctor, they were taking her to an abortionist.

The Kampfs formerly owned the State Theater in Portland and are prominent businesspeople, Dion said. They live in an upscale neighborhood about eight miles from Portland. Dion said the only known contact they've had with police is when they called a few times to complain about speeders in their neighborhood.

Oh well, that explains everything. Prominent upper middle class members of our society are always pro-life. Not.
