How can an abortionist be proud of what he does ?
Jesus terrorized satan and his demon hoards on a daily basis, healing the sick, raising the dead, and casting out demons. And Jesus was just previewing what would happen on a exponential scale when His bride "reverses the curse" and boots his sorry little tail off the planet in the near future.
"These home grown terrorists are every bit as dangerous as the terrorists who staged the attack on Sept 11"
Of course they also said that since 1973 there have been 7 murders attributed to anti-abortion activists. Let's do the math: On the one hand, a nearly 30 year period with 7 deaths. On the other hand, a morning in Sept with about 5000 deaths. Yep. Every bit as dangerous!
I love objective news reporting, with no axe to grind.
And how often did Barbara Walters come out and explicitly, and pointedly remind us that abortion is legal in the US? I counted twice, but it might have been more. I think the point here, is that if something is legal, then no one has a right to voice an opinion against it. These fanatics who set up web sites and yell at people engaged in legal acts are scary and dangerous and un-American, right?
Tell it to the anti-tobacco lobbyists. Sheesh!
To whom it may concern:
Regarding the 20/20 opening segment of November 28th 2001: the segment about homegrown terrorists and anthrax hoaxes at abortion mills was without a doubt the most dishonest, politically pointed piece of trash I have ever seen. It was completely without journalistic integrity.
I live in the same neighborhood as the abortion mill in your segment, and if any mail had been or will be contaminated with anthrax spores, so will MY mail. It bothers me sometimes to think about, but it also bothers me as to how many souls perish each day within those walls, as I drive by on my way to and from work each day.
It's interesting to see how media organizations like yourself have successfully used buzzwords and catchphrases to hijack the abortion debate; changing the tone and basis of the discourse around by switching words like "pro-life" with "anti-abortion" and "anti-choice", while the same media organizations aren't labeling the opposition "pro-death" or "pro-abortion".
I will do my best to inform sponsors of ABC and 20/20 about the ideology being propegated by ABC and 20/20, and that I will not buy their products because of this trash journalism.
I took special offense to your portrayal of the Jesuits who teach at the high school one block from the abortion mill, priests and nuns at McQuaid Jesuit High School. You see, both this abortion mill and the school are in my neighborhood. When you showed footage of these fine men and women of the faith praying the rosary peacefully outside, and then cut to the interview of the spokesman for the "Army of God", you did these fine Jesuit educators, and Catholics in general, a great disprespect. This ordained minister, who probably got his ordainment from a Cracker Jack box, was wearing the same traditional dress as the Jesuits. Is it too far fetched to wonder if your interviewers asked him to don the garb for the interview?
Shame on ABC news and 20/20 for propegating their agenda, and shame on Barbara Walters for interjecting her editorial at the end of the segment. As I said, I intend to notify your sponsors as to why I will no longer use their products or services.
I doubt this will be read by human eyes, and it's a even further stretch to assume that I will receive a reply, but a reply is welcomed.
Thank you for your time.
