Does It Matter Who Does It? by Steve Higginbotham June 27, 2007 | ||
For the past two weeks, the evening
news has carried stories about a missing woman by the name of Jessie
Davis. Miss Davis disappeared on June 13, and her body was
discovered ten days later.
One of the tragic elements of this story is
the fact that miss Davis was nine months pregnant when she went missing,
and not only was her life taken, but also the life of her unborn
baby.
A man has since been arrested and charged
with two murders, that of miss Davis and her unborn child.
Now for the record, I agree with the double
murder charge. But I cannot reconcile such a charge in light of our
present laws regarding abortion. To the unborn child, I don't think
it matters whether his life was taken by an assailant, or his mother
and her doctor conspiring together. Do you?
Give it some thought. | ||
