DEAR EDITOR:

How ironic — we abolish the death penalty as being too harsh or barbaric for someone who committed the capital offense of murder, and we want to protect their life, yet we’re willing to kill an innocent baby because we will be inconvenienced with the child’s birth. I wonder if any of these protesters considered how blessed they are that their parents didn’t abort them for some non-essential reason such as “I can’t afford another baby,” or “a child will interfere with my having fun.”

God created man and woman to procreate. The Ten Commandments (God’s laws) and many of man’s laws forbid killing another human. Many of the protesters and government legislators profess to be a Christian and / or swore to uphold the Constitution, yet they are willing to disregard these laws and speak out about the removal of Roe v. Wade, which allows abortions.

If these protesters could see themselves saying, “my body, my choice” and reflect on what they are advocating (the brutal killing of an innocent human), would they continue the protests?

Yes, it is “their body and their choice,” but the innocent life being taken might have been the one to find the cure for cancer, a debilitating disease or to benefit mankind in some other way.
