WICHITA, Kansas, January 14, 2003 (LifeSiteNews.com) – Notorious abortionist George Tiller plans on giving free abortions in celebration of the 30th anniversary of Roe v. Wade, the landmark ruling that decriminalized abortion on demand. But the anti-abortion group Operation Rescue West says, no abortion is free.
Operation Rescue West’s Troy Newman said, “Abortion costs at least one human life and countless sorrow. A free abortion masquerades the deadly price tag of a lifeless baby. Abortion kills us physically and ultimately costs us our spiritual life. Plus the physical side-effects like pain, emotional suffering, punctured uterus and sterility add up to bill nobody can afford.”
Newman countered Tiller’s free abortion claims as a publicity stunt intended to mainstream abortion on demand. But according to Newman, this ploy has been tried and failed in years past. In fact, abortionist Tiller unsuccessfully offered to give out free abortions last year at this time but over 85 percent of his appointments were canceled.
“The actions of this killer represent an extremist position, even within the pro-choice community. Once again we can see that the pro-life position is both the reasoned and normative approach to abortion (child-killing) and the pro-death merchants are the radical domestic terrorists profiteering from the death of little boys and girls,” added Newman.
“You can not put a value on a human life, thus, to offer “free murder” is a callous contradiction. Give away balloons and candy at a birthday party, but all abortions will ultimately cost us everything we have.”
