The law states it isn't against the law for a woman take the life from a fetus. Abortion may be a point of moral argument, but basically it is a conclusive legal victory of liberty over morality. If something is legal, the morality element is no longer relevant anymore. It is sad but true. Sorry dead babies. 647988@blogcritics.org Mon, 5 Nov 2007 01:14:35 EST http://blogcritics.org/archives/2007/11/04/195514.php#comment-647937 What Hill did was commit cold-blooded murder. And he was executed for it, as you know. This story is stunningly well told in the film. The accomplishment of the movie is that you can begin to see how a reasonable person could be very upset by legal abortions - and yet you can also see, quite clearly, that Paul Hill was not the least bit reasonable. He was a manipulative opportunist and a very creepy individual. And the type of rhetoric that you insist on employing will not solve this difficult social issue. It will only create more bad feeling and divisiveness. Shame on you. 647937@blogcritics.org Sun, 4 Nov 2007 20:59:27 EST http://blogcritics.org/archives/2007/11/04/195514.php#comment-647932 I'm glad the movie shows the reality of an unborn baby being murdered by a babykilling abortionist. Paul Hill who is featured in the film is considered an American Hero by many in the anti-abortion crowd, including myself. He did a good deed in saving those babies from being murdered by that babykilling abortionist. 647932@blogcritics.org Sun, 4 Nov 2007 20:38:41 EST
