Now, if it is true (which, if you haven’t guessed, I doubt...at least these high numbers anyway), I have no problem with offering this information, but I don’t think it is something that the pro-life movement should really hang its hat on.

finds a 66 percent increased risk of contracting breast cancer as a result.

No bias here, nosiree! Association does not prove causation.

I agree that abortion is never going to be stopped by attempting to connect it with a higher risk of breast cancer or anything else.

But it will be slowed down.

Seeing the heartbeat is the way for some.

Seeing the image is the way for some.

Seeing pictures of aborted babies on the sides of truck or billboards is the way for some.

Warning them of the dangers of breast cancer is the way to stop others.

To NOT use an arrow that God and science has presented us is wrong.

Multiple tactics, because everyone is different.

“True or not, this is NOT an argument to use to try to end abortion.”

Even if it is TRUE, you shouldn't mention it?

Well, let's get everyone smoking cigarettes and NEVER tell them it could cause cancer.

Don't be so idiotic.

Of course human beings should find abortion repugnant but many don't. If cancer was a possibility, then they may thing twice when something BAD might happen to THEM.

Democrats want to hide their health risks - while trumpeting ours...

Actually it kills two birds with one stone. First the little human being dies and later dear mom dies if she is under Obama’s health scare plan. She'll need to meet with her “end of life counselor” and there's one less two less “carbon footprints”. They'll tell her not to be selfish and push for treatment when there are "scarce" medical resources.

You know, I am a four-year survivor of stage three breast cancer and I have almost none of the risk factors: Had first child when young, breast fed both kids, never overweight, never had a miscarriage, etc, etc.

I also never had an abortion. Now I have to worry about whispers behind my back that perhaps I did. I hate that.

I gave up on this a long time ago. A lost cause. People for the most part do not care that abortion causes breast cancer. The best we can do is educate our families. The world has gone to heck.
