Let's have a frank discussion on fetal killing. I am pro abortion, pro choice and pro life. You start this frank discussion and I'll join in.

Thanks for your honesty. You may think it's generalizing, but I think the author of that column is correct when he says that pro abortion people shrink from the word "kill." You are one of few that won't do that.

The shading of language by both sides has always interested me, but it seems to me that the Left has been far more egregious in their twisting of words. I think Partial Birth Abortion accurately describes the procedure. Compare that with the hyper clinical term the left uses.

It isn't generalizing to say that pictures are considered taboo. I think there's even a law, I believe in Connecticut, that prohibits showing those in a public place. So much for the Left's love of the 1st amendment.

For balance, I will take a poke at my friends on the Right. To call yourself pro-life but be in favor of the death penalty strikes me as incongruous.
