Rita A. Russo, R.N. & 2013 Campaign Director for Boston's
40 Days For Life

Because abortion is invisable to the public; pro-life opponents try to keep it quiet; everybody is a victim except the lucrative abortion and pharmaceutical industries; abortion is frequently done as a 'convenience'; it's against a woman's nature to kill a child; and when a woman walks out of an abortion mill who has changed her mind, the relief, joy and happiness is so evident on her face.

The real story behind the unsuccessful effort of the Susan G. Komen foundation to end its granting funds to Planned Parenthood. The well coordinated attack of pro-abortion forces to bully Komen into capitulating to them.

 


Abortion, the direct killing of an innocent human being, is always gravely immoral (The Gospel of Life, no. 57); its victims are the most vulnerable and defenseless members of the human family. It is imperative that those who are called to serve the least among us give urgent attention and priority to this issue of justice.
― Pope Benedict
