As you read all the articles about the 35th anniversary of Roe v/s Wade, remember to keep it real by removing the sterile, meaningless words like “abortion, terminated preganancy, and choice.” Here is one that I read.

Example 1

Before:

“These women believed that it was more responsible to terminate a pregnancy than to have a child whose  health and welfare could be in question,” Jones said.

After:

“These women believed that it was more responsible to kill the child than to have a child whose health and welfare could be in question,” Jones said.

Example 2

Before:

“I was very sad and depressed the first week,” she added. “But because it’s hard on you emotionally and some women regret it, that doesn’t mean it’s wrong, that someone else should decide for you.”

After:

“I was very sad and depressed the first week,” she added. “But because killing your child is hard on you emotionally and some women regret killing their child, that doesn’t mean that killing a child is wrong, that someone else should decide for you.”

As for this particular article, it reinforced the idea that abortion in America is not about rape victims and the mother’s health, but homocide as a solution to irresponsibilty and inconvenience — thought the article starts off with Planned Parenthood trying to convince me otherwise.
