The Abortion
Most people try not to think about it. They wish to avoid the overwhelming horrible reality. Abortion is an intentional violent act that kills an unborn baby. Without any anesthesia, the baby is dismembered, torn apart, and vacuumed out of the mother.

It is always some other group like the poor or the innocent unborn babies.
If you are still unconvinced about the horror of legalized abortion, at the next...
