Abortion is violence against children. It dismembers a child; it decapitates a child; it chemically poisons a child. RU486 actually operates in two ways. The first chemical starves the baby to death so the child in utero, the child in the womb simply cannot get nourishment to continue living. The second chemical brings about the expulsion of that baby--who is usually dead, but not always. If that isn't child abuse, if the other methods of abortion are not child abuse, I don't know what is. This idea that life begins at birth belongs in another era, especially with ultrasound technologies available, as several of my colleagues have said, the 'window to the womb.'
