Reader's thoughts on abortion

To the editor:

So now you are a teen-ager. At last. Freedom! You can now choose to go the narrow road or the highway. The narrow road is just that — narrow. It wiggles right and left. There are bumps on it. So why chase that?

Now the other road is wide. You are free. No ugly rules. None. You are free. So keep your hands on the wheel. Take charge. Put your pedal to the metal. And the gears? One way. Forward. No reverse. Freedom. Why choose the narrow one? No hands on the wheel. You're just a copilot. And there are brakes. And the gears include reverse. What idiot would choose that narrow road?

Choose freedom. No rules. So you get caught. There is an escape valve. It's called abortion. You get rid of fetuses. So those who choose abortion are crying in the night. The idiots called it murder! We have values to cover that. It's true you can't forget it. Murder. But so be it. So back again to fun. Lotsa fun. Freedom. No rules. Fun. This road is wide — lots of us belong. Few on the narrow one. So don't be an idiot. Choose the wide road. Fun. Freedom. Hurray for us. Yahoo.
