- #Thanks, Susan for squelching this so quickly. This is the second
- #time in a week I have seen Peter come out with this crap and I am
- #only sorry I didn't refute it the first time. (What can I say,
- #it's been a busy week for me.)
-
- No problem. I noticed that this new idiot gets all of his
- "information" from typical pro-force sources, so I'm watching
- for his repetitions of their more obvious lies.
-
- #On a more personal note, I find it repulsive that Peter and his
- #ilk keep trying to impugn the character of Becky Bell and the
- #medical qualifications of her doctor and coroner. Especially
- #since this is done solely as a method of "damage control" to limit the
- #political impact of a tragedy which they find politically inconvenient.
- #If these people could extend to the Bells, for the loss of their daughter
- #and sister, one iota of the concern they profess to lavish on the
- #"murdered unborn" I might be able to muster some respect for them
- #and their motives but as it is, I feel nothing for them but the
- #deepest contempt.
-
- I fully agree.

- If it were really *abortion* itself, and not just safe, legal
- abortion that these people opposed, they would have Becky Bell's
- name (as well as Rosie Jimenez's name, and the names of other
- women who have died of the effects of illegal abortion) on
- those cardboard tombstones that they carry around. (The
- tombstones have the names, ages, and place of death for women
- who they claim died from complications of legal abortions.
- They do not ask the permission of the families involved to
- exploit their personal tragedies, of course.)
