In my latest Communities Digital News article, I take another look at female gendercide — this time on Western Shores. Two Canadian medical societies have released a statement calling for a ban on “non-medical” ultrasound. Although sex-selection abortion is never mentioned in the statement, the reporting around the statement mentions the increase in sex-selection abortion, […]
The good news is that the abortion rate, the number of abortions per 1000 women, has dropped to its lowest point since 1973. More and more, women are rejecting abortion. More and more, Americans realize that abortion is not the solution to difficult circumstances. Lives are being saved. The bad news is that even though […]
To decimate comes from the Roman practice of killing one in every ten soldiers in a mutinous legion. Decimate now means “to severely damage or destroy a large part of something.” Over the past 41, over 56,000,000 children have been killed through abortion.

Wade decision. The March for […]
These are the three most dangerous words at the birth of a child in much of the world. This week in my Washington Times Communities column I look at this remarkable documentary. While the subject and content of It’s a Girl are almost overwhelmingly tragic — gendercide and the violence and hardships women face […]
When speak of forced or coerced abortion, most people think of China with it’s one-child policy and horrific human rights record in forcibly aborting and sterilizing women. However, coercive abortion happens here, too. Either through direct force or non-physical pressure, 64% of women report some form of pressure to abort, with often devastating physical and […]
Last week, Amy Otto posted this interesting post on liberty and abortion at Pocket Full of Liberty. I agree with a great deal of it, but there is a pesky area of disagreement that keeps coming up between libertarians and pro-life activists: namely that legislation is the wrong approach. So I’ve got a response to […]
