I’m glad you survived Roe V Wade
One of my chidren is the same age as that brave young man who is in anguish over his generation...
My child also lost that 1/3 of that generation...
Young men and women who should have been starting out in their careers and starti ngf their own families are not with us becauswe we were silenced by these same words in the 1970’s...
This same rhetoric helped murder them..
Passivity and compromise...neutrality and silence....

Thank you very much. It seems a sad commentary on the state of the nation when we have to declare our "survivorship," but such is the case.

Killed by choice. Sometimes I wonder about the friends I might have had and the great minds that were probably lost. It may, from a distance, appear to be merely a matter of numbers, but can you really fathom tens of millions of would-be Americans that will never be? They would be having children of their own now.

Again, I point towards the politician's love of abstraction: it is the best way to say nothing at all and justify just about anything.
