Abortion hypocrisy

Re: “Life is precious,” (PostBag, Oct 21).

There is no evidence that a threemonth old foetus has any mental awareness. (In most American states abortion is legal until the foetus is three months old). Most woman who want abortions are not going to wait until seven to nine months to get it unless there is a health issue involved. Since the “pro-life” people regard woman as baby machines they give zero consideration to the health and well-being of the woman. They also tend to support war and the death penalty, even though innocent people sometimes get executed, and scorn animal rights despite the fact that a cow is far more aware than a foetus. These hypocrites are anything but prolife.
