Letter to the editor: Ban abortion

Apparently the harvesting of baby organs has become a very lucrative business. The closer to full term the healthier the unborn  infant’s organs are. These powerless human beings are torn apart sometimes while still kicking, can you imagine the pain?

In May of 2013, Dr. Kermit Gosnell was convicted of murder for doing this exact thing. At this time only four states have laws protecting babies—no abortions after a heartbeat (is detected) which is 18 days to six weeks after conception. A baby can suck its thumb, blink, swallow and dream during the second trimester.

Planned Parenthood, America’s largest abortion provider, performs approximately 320,000 abortions a year. At $450 each, that is $1,475,000. Plus the $550,000,000 in tax dollars they received in 2018.

We need to make abortion illegal again, with the exception of rape or incest.

This is murder, plain and simple. Please, please voice your opinion on this horrendous, barbaric practice by contacting our elected representatives.
