I didn't want to do this in the main article, but it's my blog, I can say what I want...
Deaths in the war in Iraq vs. legal abortion in the US.
According to the Allan Guttmacher Institute, the research branch of Planned Parenthood:
Over 1.5 Million unborn children are aborted in the US every year.
That's approximately 4,100 a day. The US represents 3% of worldwide abortions.
1% of worldwide abortions per year is 500,000. Therefore 100% of worldwide abortions is 50 million per year. 50 million potential births... anyway, back to the US.
According to these dudes, 1006 US soldiers have been killed in Iraq since the war began on 3/19/03. One day of abortions in the US quadruples that number. I really don't want to do the math, but anyone who can figure out how many days we've had since March 19th of last year, multiply that number times 4,100 and that's how many abortions we've had since then.
If you don't see abortion as the ending of a human life, than these numbers mean nothing to you, but I can't see it otherwise. One can criticise ol' G.W. for sending our servicemen and women into an unjust war, but at least he isn't killing them out of convenience to himself.
"Being a president is hard... I need less Americans to govern... I know!"
I'm convinced that this just might be the most offensive thing that some of you have read, but if abortion is murder, it is genocide, and genocide in the hundreds of millions is the kind of thing that can put events like 911 in perspective. Noone would compare 911 to the holocaust... It doesn't even come close. So why is it that we Americans cry over our towers when we legally allow the deaths of thousands a day?
I am now done with my thoroughly offensive post.
