Given the fact that unwanted children normally grow up to be criminals in America, ... *Is* that a fact? What do you mean by "normally"? Is it OK to kill the "unwanted" (by whom?) fetuses that grow up to be doctors lawyers and scientists too? It's funny how some people know the future of all these fetal humans so as to be able to justify their killing as a class. What about the criminals who were "wanted" (or do you think that they are all "normally" unwanted)? Maybe the Post saw a little non sequitur in your argument. Do you have anything that will substantiate your generalization, and can you give us any reasons why it constitutes support abortion on demand? Next we'll have criminals entering pleas of innocence by reason of having been born. -- Paul Dubuc cbscc!pmd
