Tiller the Baby Killer

I’ve often been challenged by pro abortionists as being self contradictory since I was in the military and had no problem with the killing of our enemies. The first and most obvious difference is the death of the innocent versus the death of the not so innocent. It is not that I had no problem with the killing of the enemies of the United States. All human life is sacred in my world and life view, including the lives of our enemies and yes, even those who commit murder. However, it can be a necessary evil to dispose of both categories.

Let us look at abortion from the stand point of American culture in its dealings with the enemies of the our country and convicted murderers.
1. When it comes to most wars America takes extreme efforts to avoid it. We know it will result in the deaths of our own and the deaths of others. It is often after many months or years of negotiating with our enemies that we go to war. Exceptions would be when we are directly attacked like Pearl Harbor and 911. Unprovoked attacks require an immediate response.
2. When it comes to the execution of murderers our courts have a system of appeals. Even then it can take almost a lifetime on death row before an execution is carried out. We also have an appeals process for much lower crimes, let alone murder.
3. When it comes to killing unborn babies it goes without negotiation or appeal. Where is the court for those who have no voice?

There is no other example of the taking of human life that goes without a second thought by many in our culture. The same liberals that have a problem with war and the death penalty have no problem with abortion on demand. Why is this? Who is the hypocrite now? The shoe is really on the other foot, isn’t it? It is not those of us who are willing to take the lives of our enemies and those who commit murder that are hypocrites. You would think a good liberal would want to protect human life at all cost. I find it ironic that the vegetarian, PETA, Earth First crowd isn’t on the other side of this issue.

I know we do not all agree that abortion is murder or that a fetus is an actual human life. For those of you who do not believe this ask yourself one question. Would I be any less dead if I was dead in my mother’s womb or dead after I came out of my mother’s womb? Dead is dead no matter when it occurs.

There may be some who read this that have gone through with an abortion or encouraged someone to do so. You may have regrets and deep sorrow as many do. There is something inside of all of us that lets us know it is wrong. If there isn’t then maybe you are a psychopath ( n. A person with an antisocial personality disorder, manifested in aggressive, perverted, criminal, or amoral behavior without empathy or remorse.) This is obviously the mindset of those who aggressively support abortion.
