How sick is our society where we have our high courts siding with butchering babies? Undue burden on women? Those aren’t women, the females who feel fine with killing innocent children. Patricia Murphy

I’m thrilled with the ruling. Proudly pro-choice. We live in a secular nation, not one where religious beliefs trump everything else. Jim Michaud

Over 54 million babies murdered in the U.S. since 1973 and counting. By far our biggest national disgrace. When a women is pregnant, it’s not just her body anymore. It’s her body and the baby’s body. Sal Maggiore
