The law. as I have mentioned
m I hi* past, is merely .1 remind

right laws have been made Is 11
loiri'iiii'iil is quite seiamdarv
The majority will tend to con

When .i societs revokes a

will believe that this thing is
suddenly ()k. Does anyone out
there reads think that an in
crease per capita has not oc
curred in actual abortions since
the lasss ssere changed7 Wake
up! Or that more than a tins
fraction of today's numbers
were being done in sei retNo!
Most women feared the 1 on
sequences and thus did not put
their bodies out lor use bs any
one and everyone with the
right manipulations Thus,
there svere drasticalls less un
wanted pregnancies So who
was this that thought making
abortion illegal svould some
how be cruel to women?
This lavs would save bs far
more women from falling into a
situation that tlies svould later
regret legalls Soviets has
done a great crime against
women bs causing them to be
lievo th.it tiles (.111 allow their
bodies to be misused without
ans serious consequences
Do not be deceived Men
who really want to manipulate
women are pro-abortion, for
this reason. I know, because I
was one.
