The abortion contortion

[Re: "Campus Pro-Life pulls plug" November 24, 2005]

Universities are supposed to be bastions of free speech and free expression. People see atrocities on TV everyday, yet the university 'intellectuals' are trying to suppress or limit people seeing the atrocity of abortion; where the baby is suctioned out, cut to pieces, poisoned by a saline solution or born alive and left to die. The horror of "choice" needs to be exposed, and the pro-life students should be congratulated for having the courage to do this.

Information regarding what happens during an abortion should definitely be made available to everyone, and people should be aware of the process involved with terminating a fetus. People should not however be forcefully subjected to this information.

There are plenty of horrible and atrocious images on TV, but it's pretty easy to turn your TV off, install a V-chip for kids or at least change the channel. People come to school for the education they paid for, and if you're going to offer them more, it doesn't need to be forced upon them. Offer them a choice to tune in or tune out.
