12. Nance, this has to be my favorite of all the pieces you have written.
The hyprocracy of the "pro-lifers" should be pointed out at every chance, as well as their shortcomings where children born into less-than nurturing environments are concerned. They need to be called out every time they turn their backs on women and their children.

And the people who work in women's health care should be left alone to do the work they do so well. They are there to help, educate, inform, support, provide for, and take care of. What is the harm in THAT? There IS none! The harm comes from those who protest, who refuse to give a flying fig about these women and children, and especially from those who would celebrate the brutal murder of a man such as Dr. Tiller.

Thank you, Nance.

You took the words right out of my heart.
