Letter to the Editor
Planned Parenthood doesn't defend children

Lisa L. Miller, assistant professor-crime, law and justice and political science, tells us that Planned Parenthood's Feldt "can tell us a great deal about the importance of defending freedoms."

What is curious is that the "freedoms" Feldt defends exclude the most innocent among us in what should be their safest place of refuge -- their mothers' wombs. This domestic terrorism promoted as "law" in this country and exported to the world resulting in the killing of over forty million of our children is conveniently ignored by Miller for specious reasons of reproductive rights, whatever that is. Where would you be if your mother held you to be nothing more than a choice with a reproductive right to terminate you in the most horrible fashion? Moreover, where would the minions of Planned Parenthood be?

The crimes perpetrated by those whom Miller cites against Planned Parenthood pale in comparison to the crimes perpetrated by Planned Parenthood itself. So let's get real, Ms. Miller. If you want to talk about terrorism domestically, look to those who have made it a modus operandi like Planned Parenthood.
