Editor, The News:

In response to the letter by Mary Alice Gaibis, “Keeping abortion a choice,” I disagree.

Does the unborn baby have a choice whether to live or die? Does the mother think what would happen before getting to that point? Will she be coerced into making that choice?

It is a fact that women are coerced by boyfriends, parents, doctors, clinic staff, etc., to abort their babies. No one has a right to abort a baby. No one has the right to kill.

Who really benefits from the choice to kill a tiny baby?

Will she be told the fetus is a human? That it will feel pain? That there will be emotional/physical consequences after?

We know government-funded Planned Parenthood won’t tell her these facts. It’s too busy building clinics targeting college women, African Americans and those in poor neighborhoods.

I agree that we should not judge all pro-life advocates by the actions of an extremist. Pro-life people are against killing, whether of a baby by abortion or of an abortionist by a gun.

I resent Gaibis’ statement, “but the seeds have been planted.” The seeds we plant are the seeds of life. It is President Obama and Congress who promote death by abortion.
