I can't respect a law that allows the murder of 4000 innocent human beings a day. I consider a society that sits back and allows it to be uncivil.

You have every right and maybe even a duty to not respect any law that you find morally repugnant but you also have to be prepared to accept the consequences of disobeying any law if you choose to do so.

Really??? And who would be the authority to do so?

I agree it probably is my duty as an American. Many others have given their lives so that I can have "Life, Liberty, and the pursuit of happiness". Too bad I am too much of a coward.

I will not condemn one that risk his own life for the cause of life, while the rest of us pretend we are getting somewhere after 30 years has gone by.
