CNSNews.com -The pro-abortion
rights Alan Guttmacher Institute reports that there have been nearly 50
million abortions performed since 1973, the year the Supreme Court
issued the Roe v. Wade decision ushering in legal abortion nationwide.
In 2008, Guttmacher says, there were 1.2 million "legally terminated
pregnancies" in the United States, based on reports complied from state
and local health agencies -- down from 1.3 million the year previous.
According to Guttmacher, 35 percent of all U.S. women
will have had an abortion by age 45. Guttmacher also reports that
93 percent of all abortions occur for “social reasons” such as a
mother’s decision that the child is unwanted or “inconvenient.”
CNSNews.com – Pro-life activist Dr. Alveda King, niece
of the Rev. Martin Luther King Jr, reacted recently to the removal of a
billboard advertisement in Manhattan that featured a black girl and the
statement “the most dangerous place for an African American is in the
womb.”
“It is an outrageous act of censorship that this
billboard was taken down,” King said. “This billboard should be posted
in every city of the country." |
