In the entire history of the struggle over abortion, seven pro-abortion activists (including three abortionists) have been murdered. This has given rise to a great torrent of grief and fear (most of it staged for the cameras) among pro-abortionists, who have held massive rallies and have written tens of thousands of pages of outraged prose condemning the violence.
It has also led to boasting braggarts like abortionist and convicted serial sex molester Brian Finkel of Arizona widely publicizing the fact that he carries a pistol and wears a bullet-proof vest for his protection. The United States Department of Justice has even established a National Task Force on Violence Against Health Care Providers, which includes detailed tips on personal security.[44]
Just how much danger is an abortionist facing, especially when compared to other professions?
The United States Bureau of Labor Statistics gives us the numbers regarding on-the-job fatalities due to assaults and other violent acts;[45]

Fatalities Due to Assaults and Other Violent Acts, 1993-2001 |
| Cashiers and sales counter clerks | 735 |

| Farmers and farm workers | 338 |
| Truck drivers | 266 |
| Janitors and cleaners | 155 |

| Teachers | 37 |
| Physicians (non-abortionists) | 33 |
| Hairdressers and cosmetologists | 20 |
| Registered Nurses | 17 |
| Abortionists | 3 |
We can certainly argue that truck drivers are more important than abortionists, since without them our grocery store shelves would be empty. We can argue that mechanics are more important than abortionists, since without them eventually nobody could drive anywhere. We can certainly argue that farmers are more important than abortionists, since without them we wouldn't eat. Yet we seemed to do just fine without legal abortionists for 197 years of our nation's history.
As for lawyers, well ...
Even being a secretary or a hairdresser is much more dangerous than being an abortionist, but how many secretaries or hairdressers do you see posing for the cameras with bulletproof vests and Glocks?
Why are Federal marshals not protecting janitors, taxi drivers and farmers? Why are there no heavily-publicized task forces for them?
Because they are not politically connected or politically correct. They are not attached to a liberal cause. And they do not have the millions of dollars that pro-abortionists have to trumpet their propaganda in all of the media organs.

Introduction. We can't honestly deny that some so-called "pro-lifers" have committed murder, have bombed and burned abortion mills, and are guilty of physical assault. This behavior is inexcusable but inevitable when you consider the vast size of the pro-life movement. With more than a million active members, there is absolutely no practical way to screen out every person with violent thoughts or inclinations.
Yet history shows us that the pro-life movement is by far the most peaceful social movement in the history of the world. Every other social movement is guilty of far greater death and destruction, including the civil rights movement, the unionization movement, the anti-apartheid movement, the "gay rights" movement, and, of course, the pro-abortion movement.
Violence by the Homosexuals. Anyone who has dealt with homosexual activists knows that they are extremely violent and uncontrolled by nature. The Bible correctly labels them "vicious men, great sinners against Yahweh" (Genesis 13:13). Homosexual activists routinely use violence and threats of violence to accomplish their objectives. Even the "birth" of the modern "gay-rights" movement happened during a riot.
Some of these incidents of violence are described below.
-
- Homosexuals and pro-abortionists belonging to the groups ACT-UP and WHAM (Women's Health Action Mobilization) stormed New York's St. Patrick's Cathedral on December 10, 1989, assaulting parishioners, disrupting Cardinal John O'Connor's Mass by screaming and shoving people, and desecrating the consecrated Host by throwing It on the ground and stamping on It. Outside, hundreds of screaming homosexuals burned Cardinal O'Connor in effigy and attacked passersby, all because the Cardinal had refused to toe their immoral "safe sex" line. Some of the placards the homosexuals carried displayed slogans such as; "MARY SHOULD HAVE HAD AN ABORTION; "CHRIST WAS A HOMOSEXUAL;" and "DEATH TO THE CHURCH!" After the invasion of St. Patrick's cathedral, ACT-UP issued a press statement saying that its cause is "... important enough [to allow us] to invade any space, to disrupt any speech."[46] In December of 1990, in defiance of a court order resulting from the attack one year earlier, homosexuals broke into the Mass once again and made off with consecrated Hosts, which they gleefully displayed outside.[47]
-
- In 1989 and 1990, homosexuals waged a continuing war of vandalism and outright destruction against Catholic churches in Los Angeles. Homosexual attackers calling themselves "Greater Religious Responsibility" claimed responsibility for vicious attacks against Cardinal Roger Mahony, calling him a "murderer" for opposing their "safe sex" programs and for labeling the use of condoms "immoral." They attacked the Cathedral of St. Mary of the Assumption in Los Angeles, desecrating it with bloody-red hand prints and pornographic photographs of perverted sex acts plastered on the windows. ACT-UP posters were pasted everywhere. At St. Catherine's, they nailed a ten-foot cross festooned with plastic penises and used condoms to the church door. They smeared the chancery with animal blood and entrails that appeared to be the products of Satanic sacrifices.[48]
-
- Dr. Chuck McIlhenny was pastor of San Francisco's First Orthodox Presbyterian Church for many years. In 1989, he exercised his Constitutional rights of free speech and assembly and helped engineer the defeat of a domestic partnership law that would have forced the public to accept homosexual immorality by compelling everyone to treat two homosexuals as a family. Anyone who did not willingly comply would be heavily fined or jailed. As one of the city's few politically active pastors, McIlhenny and his family became the focus of intense and vicious homosexual hate. For three years, they received thousands of threatening and harassing phone calls 24 hours a day, and many callers swore to sodomize and kill the McIlhenny's three young daughters. McIlhenny's home and church were firebombed. The arsons culminated in their home being firebombed while they were sleeping inside. In 1990, homosexual groups repeatedly vandalized the church and home with graffiti like "Dykes for Choice," and attacked the crisis pregnancy center housed in the church. Cowardly, skulking homosexuals broke the church's windows so many times the parishioners boarded them up permanently.[49]
-
- When California Governor Pete Wilson vetoed the "gay rights" legislation sent to his desk in 1991, hundreds of screaming homosexuals rioted and overpowered police. They grabbed wooden police barriers and used them to smash the heavy plate glass in several office buildings, and then used the broken glass like Frisbees, pitching them at the knees of police. At least one policeman had his kneecaps shattered by this technique. The rioting homosexuals set fire to one building, causing $250,000 in damages. In keeping with a policy of greater police department "sensitivity" towards "gays," there were no arrests.[50]
Homosexual activists have become so bold that they know that they can get away with just about anything. Even the secular press reports on their vows of violence, but this reporting has little effect. The average person couldn't care less about homosexual violence until it is directed at him - and, even then, he may be afraid to react for fear of being labeled a "homophobe."
Some homosexual threats of violence are shown below.
-
- "I can, in the privacy of my own skull, douse [Senator] Helms with a bucket of gasoline and set his putrid ass on fire or throw [Congressman] William Dannemeyer off the Empire State Building ... [Cardinal John O'Connor] is the world's most active liar about condoms and safer-sex ... This fat cannibal from that house of walking swastikas up on Fifth Avenue should lose his church tax-exempt status and pay retroactive taxes from the last couple centuries. Shut down our clinics and we will shut down your church" Homosexual activist David Wojnarowicz.[51]
-
- "It's hard to refrain from taking this man [Pat Buchanan] by the throat and squeezing as hard as you can while you look into his ugly, disgusting face and watch the eyeballs burst and pop out of their sockets. Or maybe you feel like stepping on his face and squishing his demented brain until the rot oozes out of it and onto the pavement. I have no problem with imagining violence against this wacko ..." Michelangelo Signorile, editor-at-large of the homosexual magazine Outweek.[52]
-
- "... I think the time for violence has now arrived. I don't personally think I'm the guy with the guts to do it, but I'd like to see an AIDS terrorist army, like the Irgun which led to the state of Israel" Homosexual playwright Larry Kramer, founder of ACT-UP (the AIDS Coalition to Unleash Power).[53]
-
- "I think we should blow up Gracie Mansion [the New York governor's residence] ... One of my favorite notions is that we make fake blood and throw bottles of it in public places, and shout, "This is AIDS blood!" Let them think that it is. We have to scare people. We have to make their lives uncomfortable. I think we should be tying up whole cities. We should cripple this country. We should throw bombs. We should set fires. We should stop traffic. We should surround the White House" Larry Kramer.[54]
-
- "We should have shut down the subway and burned down city hall. I think rioting is a valid tactic and should be tried ... If someone took out [killed] Jesse Helms or William Dannemeyer of California, I would be the first to stand up and applaud" ACT-UP member Michael Petrelis.[55]
-
- "If [AIDS] research money is not forthcoming at a certain level by a certain date, all gay males should give blood. Whatever action is required to get national attention is valid. If that includes blood terrorism, so be it" Homosexual activist Robert Schwab.[56]
Violence by Animal Rights and Environmental Activists. Perhaps the closest parallel to the pro-life movement is the animal rights/environmental movement, in that both fight for the rights of other beings instead of for their own rights. Yet even activists in the animal/earth rights movements not only resort to violence much more frequently than pro-lifers, they maintain Web sites boasting about the damage they cause.
The Animal Liberation Front (ALF) maintains a Web site that lists more than a thousand violent "actions" it has taken, along with its sister organization, the Earth Liberation Front (ELF), during the time period 1984-1999 and 2001.
The groups boast of more than 100 acts of arson. Total damages caused by ALF/ELF arsons, window-smashing, tire-slashing, and paintbombing, in addition to all their other actions, total in excess of $65 million as of 2001.
The arsons claimed by the ALF/ELF include many that dwarf those committed by any "pro-life" arsonist:
-
- arson of the University of Washington's Center for Urban Horticulture in Seattle, which burned down on May 21, 2001, inflicting $5.6 million in damages;
-
- arson of the Coulston Foundation's White Sands Research Center building ($1 million in damages);
-
- burning down the offices of United Feeds in Greenbush, Wisconsin, on August 8, 1999 ($1.5 million in damages);
-
- total destruction of five buildings and four ski lifts in Vail, Colorado on October 18, 1998 ($14 million in damages);
-
- total destruction of the main offices and four trucks owned by the Agricultural Fur Breeders Co-Op in Sandy, Utah, on March 11, 1997 ($1 million in damages);
-
- arson of the Alaskan Fur Company in Bloomington, Minnesota on November 12, 1996, causing $2.25 million in damage;
-
- destruction of the University of California at Davis animal diagnostics laboratory and twenty vehicles on April 6, 1987, causing $5.1 million in damage and destroying years of critical research that would have benefitted many people;
-
- the June 2, 1987 firebombing of Hallmark Furs in St. Louis, Missouri, causing $1 million in damages;
-
- the April 3, 1989 "action" at the University of Arizona in Tucson, during which ALF activists smashed medical equipment, spray-painted graffiti like "Nazi" and "Scum," and stole or released 1,231 animals. The raiders then torched two of the research buildings, causing $200,000 in damage. One of the 15 projects halted involved research on creating an effective disinfectant for Cryptosporidium-contaminated water that would save thousands of lives in developing countries. The ALF "commandos" also unwittingly released 30 mice infected with the Cryptosporidium virus, an incurable strain of diarrhea that is invariably fatal to AIDS patients and malnourished children.[57]
The Animal/Earth Liberation Front has also engaged in other extreme violence that includes attempted mass murder. In October 1996, the ELF attempted to burn the Detroit Ranger District office while it was occupied by a number of people.[57]
In September 1984, several California vivisectors received letters postmarked Lehigh Valley, Pennsylvania, stating that they are on an "A.L.F. Hit List." There was no interest shown by the government or by the media, but a "wanted" poster put out by pro-lifers is subject to a $107 million judgment. These extreme animal-rights and environmental groups also routinely use death and bomb threats to attain their goals.
Speaking of "hit lists," the Unabomber, Theodore Kaczynski, attended an Earth First! meeting at the University of Montana where a "hit list" of "enemies of the environment" was distributed. Subsequently, Kaczynski killed two of the people on that list with his bombs. Anti-lifers defended the right of Earth First! to distribute such lists, despite the fact that this particular list had led to two murders. What if, instead of killing "enemies of the environment," the Unabomber had sent bombs to abortion clinics? Would there still be support from the hypocrites of the Liberal Left?
The widespread violence of the animal/earth rights movement is certainly not confined to the ALF and the ELF.
Several other major radical environmental organizations endorse and employ `ecotage' to disable and destroy land-clearing and logging equipment. Such vandalism has caused tens of millions of dollars worth of damage.
Earth First! has even published books entitled Ecodefense: A Field Guide to Monkeywrenching and How to Sink Whalers, Driftnetters, and Other Environmentally Destructive Ships.[58] Environmentalist groups defend the publishing of such volumes under the banner of free speech. Now try to imagine the uproar the same people would raise if a pro-lifer published a book entitled How to Trash Abortion Clinics!
One of the favorite tricks of the "ecoteurs" involves "spiking" trees by hammering railroad spikes randomly into trees "threatened" with cutting. When a logger hits one of these spikes with his chain saw, the saw will "kick back" and frequently endanger his life. If the tree is felled and transported to a lumber mill without incident, the large, high-speed bandsaw blades used to cut the logs will explode into shrapnel if they encounter a spike. This tactic has severely injured several mill workers, including one whose carotid artery was severed.
Environmentalist terrorist Rodney Coronado served time in prison for his eco-terrorist activities. He proudly boasts about his bombings (research laboratories and offices dealing with animal research), vandalism (smashing and spray painting fur dealerships), theft ("releasing" animals from farms), sabotage (sinking whaling ships), and attempts to kill human beings by spiking trees. Despite such a violent legacy, environmental journals such as the Earth First! Journal, No Compromise, and Live Wild or Die have hailed Coronado as a hero.[59]
We must ask an obvious question: Why doesn't anyone demand that the leadership of the Sierra Club or the organizers of Earth Day apologize every time a major arson or other violent action is carried out by radical environmentalists or animal-rights activists?
Violence by Anti-Apartheid Activists. One of the most politically correct social movements of all time is the anti-apartheid movement. Its goals were noble, but it seemed to be insulated against all criticism, even when its leaders resorted to a widespread campaign of torture and murder to achieve their goals.
Members of the [South] African National Congress (ANC), also known as the South African Communist Party, murdered hundreds of people during its campaign, most of whom were innocent bystanders. Nelson and Winnie Mandela endorsed this violence, and applauded the use of `necklaces' to keep opponents, critics and dissenters in line.
This hideous practice consisted of hacking a victim's arms off, placing a car tire around his neck, dousing him with gasoline, and setting him on fire. Between March 1 and June 5 of 1986 alone, a period of only 14 weeks, the ANC and its friends necklaced and burned to death 172 Blacks they saw as not cooperating with them enthusiastically enough.[60]
Winnie Mandela boasted in 1986 that "Together, hand in hand, with our boxes of matches and our necklaces, we shall liberate this country."[61] She also alleged that Moscow was the "torchbearer for all our hopes."[62] Many pro-abortionists, including the Federation of Feminist Women's Health Centers, officially proclaimed their support of Winnie Mandela, despite her grisly record.[60]
During his 1962 trial for terrorism, Nelson Mandela stated that "We Communist Party members are the most advanced revolutionaries in modern history ... The Communist movement still faces powerful enemies which must be completely crushed and wiped out from the face of the earth before a Communist world can be realized ... The people of South Africa, led by the SACP [South African Communist Party], will destroy capitalism and build in its place socialism."[63]
To those familiar with Mandela's long record of violence, the spectacle of the American press slobbering over the convicted terrorist during his stay in the United States was deeply sickening but came as no surprise. Tom Brokaw of NBC called him "a kind of philosopher-king;" to Carole Simpson of ABC, he was "an almost God-like father figure;" and Garry Smith of CBS referred to "the Second Coming" when Mandela hit the beaches. Time Magazine featured him on its cover under the banner "AN AMERICAN HERO."
At the climax of his visit, Mandela shared his New York City celebrity's podium with the three Puerto Rican nationalists who burst into the House of Representatives in 1954 and sprayed the chambers with bullets. Mandela had also invited the gunman who tried to assassinate President Harry S Truman in 1950, but the would-be assassin couldn't make it to the event.[64]
Even anti-apartheid clergymen preach extreme violence. Anglican Archbishop Desmond Tutu, winner of the Nobel Peace Prize, has said; "I am a Socialist. I hate Capitalism ... One young man with a stone in his hand can achieve far more than I can with a dozen sermons ... the only way to overthrow the government is with force ... Imagine what would happen if only 30 percent of domestic servants would poison their employer's food ... Is it not surprising that Black resistance has not yet blown up a school bus with White children? They are the softest targets!"[65]
Violence by the Communists. American Communists denounce as the worst kind of terrorists people who bomb a deserted abortion clinic, and have even called them "agents of genocide," a strange charge considering that Black women abort more than two and a half times more frequently than White women.
Naturally, they conveniently ignore the glaring fact that the greatest genocides in history have all been committed by Communists, who have, by conservative estimate, killed more than 100 million individuals in undeclared wars on their own people Mao (50 million), Pol Pot (12 million), Lenin (6 million), Stalin (25 million), and uncounted millions of others whose names we will never know.
American Communists love to chant "No forced birth control, no forced sterilization of poor women!" Yet they fully support the population control program in Communist China, which includes widespread forced contraception, forced sterilization, and forced abortion.
In fact, the only countries in the world that force women to have abortions and force them to be sterilized are Communist. The only countries in the world that have unleashed the dreaded "Uterus Police" are Communist. And, of course, the only countries in the world that can force women to have babies for the good of the almighty State have had Communist governments (one example is the situation in Romania before the dictator Caucesescu was overthrown in 1989).
Not only have American Communists not learned their lesson, they continue to support the violent and murderous Communist regimes that still exist.
For example, the Communist Party of Peru the Sendero Luminoso, or "Shining Path," has fielded death squads that have slaughtered thousands of innocent villagers. Sendero believes that the Khmer Rouge were on the right track as they slaughtered millions of Cambodians in their drive to "create a more perfect society." They rail against public elections, labeling them "parliamentary cretinism," and consider themselves to be the only fit rulers of the nation.[66]
One of the Sendero's most pitiful victims was Maria Elena Moyano Delgado (known as Madre Coraje, or "Mother Courage"), who had worked among the poor for years in Villa el Salvador, one of the shantytowns surrounding Lima. She was conducting a children's fundraiser on February 15, 1992, when a Shining Path death squad broke into the building. In front of a hundred screaming children, they shot her in the back, and then destroyed her body via their usual method; by stuffing dynamite sticks into the mouth, anus, and vagina, and then blowing up the corpse, splattering blood and body organs all over the children.[67]
Not a word of protest against this horror was uttered by any Leftist publication in the United States. The only reporting on Delgado's death was done in America's conservative and religious press.
In another incident of extreme violence, Shining Path terrorists were imprisoned in a maximum-security facility, where they rioted. Troops and guards put down the violent uprising, killing many of the terrorists in the process. American Communist organizations, who have ardently supported the Maoists all along, immediately condemned this attack. In fact, they commemorate an earlier murderous uprising of the Maoists as the "Day of Heroism."[68]
Presumably the Communists also believe that it is "heroism" to slaughter helpless children and unresisting women and priests.
After the leader of the Shining Path, Abimael Guzman, was captured, American Communists went ballistic. They created an "international committee" to free the mass murderer, and open letters were splashed on full-page ads on the major American Communist propaganda newspapers.
One example was the full-page demand on the back page of the January 31, 1993 Revolutionary Worker ("Voice of the Revolutionary Communist Party, USA"). The obligatory slogan-filled tirade was signed by more than a hundred radicals, including former United States Attorney General Ramsey Clark; the "Committee to Support the Revolution in Peru," from (where else?) Berkeley; Jan Kirsch, board member of Physicians for Social Responsibility; Center for Constitutional Rights lawyer William Kunstler, and, inevitably, everyone's favorite baldheaded female trash artist, Sinead O'Connor.
This is entirely typical. The Shining Path can slaughter thousands of innocent unarmed people, and there is silence on behalf of the victims; but when an abortionist is killed, American Communists devote entire issues of their trashy magazines to condemning the entire pro-life movement.
Violence by the Unions. The National Institute for Labor Relations Research (NILRR) keeps a detailed Violent Event Data File, which includes media reporting on incidents of union violence.
The NILRR has compiled more than 10,000 documented incidents of union violence committed since 1975. This includes at least 203 murders, 5,869 incidents of personal injury, and 6,435 incidents of vandalism and other property damage amounting to tens of millions of dollars of damage.[69]
Union organizers routinely employ coercion, assault, and murder to enforce their will. During Teamster strikes and other actions such as those carried out against Pittston and Hormel, pro-union snipers routinely kill and wound opponents and innocent bystanders. When truckers strike, union members often stand on overpasses and shoot at any truck they suspect is driven by a "scab." A person bold enough to disagree with the unions and exercise his "free choice" to cross picket lines in many cases risks his life for the privilege of working for a living.
Columnist Jack Anderson also tied mobsters and unions to abortion clinics when he stated that "A Federal grand jury testified that some mobsters have used fraud, extortion, arson, assault, and other strong-arm tactics against [abortion] Medicaid practitioners in order to collect kickbacks and for protection against competition."[70] Anderson said that some abortion mills had been paying several thousand dollars per month under threats of mob reprisal.

The map below shows in graphic format just some of the more serious incidents of pro-abortion violence committed in the United States. You can find documentation on each of these incidents of pro-abortion violence by clicking here.
The total number of incidents of pro-abortion violence documented in this report by category are listed here.
Unlike all pro-abortion reports that simply allege 100, 250, 500 (pick a nice round number) incidents of "anti-choice" violence but never document their claims, this report lists all documentation for more than 7,000 incidents of pro-abortion violence, from mass murder to destruction of property.
So the next time a person shows you a map or graph of "anti-choice violence" and demands that you condemn it, tell him that the apology must be mutual; if you are going to apologize for violence you were not involved in, he must also apologize.
If we count just born individuals killed by pro-abortionists, we find that pro-abortion violence far exceeds that of "anti-choice" violence by any measure;
People killed by pro-abortion murders, manslaughters and infanticides (not counting women killed by so- called "safe and legal" abortion) | 520 |
Other women killed by "safe and legal" abortion (see this document for names and documentation on the deaths of these women) | 360 |
| Total people killed by pro-abortionists | 880 |
In summary, then, if we count the murders of only born human beings, the pro-aborts are far ahead of the "pro-lifers" by a "score" of 880 to 7.
Violence the World Over.
Abortionists and pro-abortionists are cut from the same rotten bolt of cloth the world over: They are insanely violent and completely conscience-free. If anything, pro-aborts are even less civilized in the rest of the world than they are in North America!
Following are just a few examples of the ridiculous antics and the violence committed by pro-aborts in other nations of the world.
Australia
- (1)
- Abortionist Peter Bayliss was an absolute favorite of Australian pro-abortionists. But he had such an evil temper that his anaesthetist, Dawn Cullin, and even his de facto wife, Claudia McEwen, frequently laced his coffee with prozac and valium. During one of his temper tantrums, he tied a patient to a bed and stuffed a sanitary pad in her mouth. Cullen admitted she was concerned about the practice, but said it was necessary to stop Bayliss acting "like a pork chop in a synagogue. ... The patients were terrified of him when he got into that state." Finally, the abortionist met his inevitable end. In 1999, doped up on a lethal dose of sleeping pills, he fell down a flight of stairs. Claudia McEwan failed to call an ambulance for him and was subsequently charged with manslaughter. Testimony revealed that she knew he was having a Viagra-fueled affair. Strangely, her mother had died under circumstances eerily similar to those of Bayliss. The abortionist had had his medical license suspended after his negligence led to an abortion patient suffering brain damage, but he had vowed to set up shop again. Local pro-abortionists eulogized him in the media as a man with "a heart of gold" who had fearlessly resisted attacks by "anti-abortion zealots."[71]

- In one of the most calculated and cold-blooded murder sprees Australia has ever seen, John Myles Sharpe of Victoria murdered his five-months-pregnant wife Anna Marie by shooting her twice in the head with a spear gun. To keep up appearances, he took his little twenty-month old daughter, Gracie Louise to pre-school for several days. Then, in order to make it look as if she had left him for another man and had taken Gracie with her, he murdered her with the spear gun as well. Then he chopped up the bodies of his pregnant wife and baby girl with a chain saw and fed their body parts into a wood shredder, then bagged their remains up and dumped them at a commercial waste site. He later confessed to the murders and told investigators that he had actually taken little Gracie to a scuba shop to purchase the spear gun that he would later use to murder her with.[72]
- (3)
- In yet another case, Phillip King's girlfriend, 17-year-old Kylie Flick, was six months pregnant, and he did not want the baby. He demanded that she have a late-term abortion, but she refused. So he offered two women $500 to punch Kylie in the stomach to induce a miscarriage, but they refused. So, on August 20, 2002, King, who weighed 245 pounds and was on steroids, punched her in the stomach himself, threw her to the ground, and stomped on her abdomen several times. The attack caused the desired result. Kylie's baby was stillborn. King pled guilty to maliciously inflicting grievous bodily harm. He testified that "My intention was to hurt the baby and that's why I punched her in the stomach." He was sent to prison for 25 years for his cowardly attack.[73]
England
- (1)
- Pro-lifers sometimes joke that it is the 99 percent of abortionists that give the other one percent a bad name.
Certainly abortionist Andrew Gbinigie is one of the 99 percent. He resigned from Wordsley Hospital, Stourbridge, after being found guilty of serious misconduct and sexually harassing two colleagues. So he set up his own private abortion mill, the Calthorpe Clinic, and began to slash a bloody swath through women who were unlucky enough to come to him for care;
-
- Vivian Robinson, a General Medical Council representative, said that Gbinigie botched three abortions on his very first day at his private abortion mill, leaving parts of preborn babies inside three women.
-
- Also on his first day, the abortionist grossly botched a 20-week abortion in November 2000, rupturing the patient's uterus wall and removing her right ovary and fallopian tube. It was only after he pulled out a piece of her bowel that he realized something was wrong. The woman's life was saved only after three consultants carried out a five-hour emergency operation during which her right kidney had to be removed. One of the emergency surgeons described the woman's insides as "just a mess ... A rush of blood carrying the partially dismembered fetus just went everywhere, all over the place ... The fetus was largely intact, apart from one arm and one leg." When her stomach was opened, said another witness, the "cavity was full of blood and floating on top was a 20-week-old fetus, largely intact apart from a missing arm and a missing leg."
-
- Gbinigie told Tina Palmer that her preborn child was grossly malformed, and offered to perform an abortion on her. But she refused to abort, and gave birth to a healthy little girl, Naomi. She said if she and her husband Brendan had taken Gbinigie's advice they would not have their "lovely girl."
-
- Nicola Evans had a child after being "sterilized" by Gbinigie, has organized a support group for women butchered or injured by him. She said: "The amount of phone calls from women who phoned up upset, crying over the phone, it's just absolutely amazing. We've got 25 names from the West Midlands."
The Brits are just as conscientious about protecting their many incompetent abortionists as the Americans and Canadians are. Gbinigie is still on the medical register. He was found guilty of serious professional misconduct by the General Medical Council (GMC), but escaped a ban from practicing medicine. In fact, after setting what might be an abortionist's world record for four botched abortions in one day, he was back committing abortions within two weeks.[74]
- (2)
- In another spectacular case, serial child sexual predator Ian Huntley was an English pro-abortionist with a taste for very young girls and violence.
During a December 2003 trial for rape, his sordid and predatory past emerged. Over a period stretching back to 1995, he had raped and sexually assaulted at least six girls aged 12 to 18. But repeated blunders by police and social workers meant that he was never convicted. One of his victims, Janine Oliver, described him as a "sick, twisted and demented" person who "definitely had a thing about school uniforms." Claire Evans had been married to Huntley, and he had demanded that she have an abortion. When she refused, he shoved her down a flight of stairs, then beat her until she miscarried. Huntley also beat up several other women he had lived with from time to time. Huntley's career of terror was finally ended when he raped and murdered a schoolgirl named Jodi Jones. Two little ten-year-old girls, Holly Wells and Jessica Chapman, witnessed the assault. So, in order to get rid of any evidence, he abducted both girls and murdered them. Then he cut off all of their clothes, dumped them in a ditch, and doused their bodies with gasoline and tried to burn them. Finally, Huntley was jailed for life. Judge Alan Moses told him: "You showed no mercy and you show no regret. There are few worse crimes than your murder of those two young girls." Huntley will spend the rest of his life in solitary confinement, to prevent other convicts from trying to kill him.[75]
Germany
Josef Mengele was the physician in charge of medical experimentation at the Nazis' notorious Auschwitz concentration camp. He would stand next to the rail cars as they disgorged their pitiful loads of Untermenschen, whistling opera arias as he selected the people he would perform his ghastly experiments on.
These unfortunate wretches would be submerged in freezing water until they died in order to test human endurance in cold climates. Women would have their breasts cut off (without expensive anesthesia) for dissection and examination. And many people with brown eyes would have blue dye injected into their corneas as Mengele attempted to "Aryanize" them.
After the war, Mengele, known as the "Angel of Death," entered Argentina in 1949 with a Red Cross passport. Since his medical experience had become largely irrelevant, he began to pursue a line of work that suited his temperament, job experience and sense of ethics.
He became an abortionist.
After he killed a young Buenos Aires woman, he was hauled before a judge, but apparently got off scot-free when an associate bribed the Court with a large sum of money.[76]
India

- Balak Das wanted to have sex with a 13-year old girl, but she refused him. So he drugged and raped her while she was carrying food to workers in guru Mauni Maharaj's fields in Khorana Village near Shivpuri on January 2, 2004. When she realized that she was pregnant, the guru forced her to eat seeds of dhatura (thorn apple) mixed in sweets, and she gave birth to a dead child. She was also permanently blinded by the deadly potion. On December 18, 2004, a Shivpuri Judge Renu Sharma sentenced Das to life imprisonment for the rape and Maharaj to five years hard labor for the forced abortion and mutilation of the little girl.[77]

- Runu Jena was six months pregnant, and her husband, Rama Pradhan, did not like this one bit. He ordered her many times to have an abortion but she adamantly refused. So, on July 26, 2003, he stabbed her repeatedly in the neck and abdomen with a broken bottle and left her for dead in a pool of blood on the railway tracks near Bhubaneswar station. She had been slashed so severely that her esophagus was ruptured. S.A. Karim, officer-in-charge, Government Railway Police, investigated the crime. He said that "Her husband had almost killed her when he stabbed her with a broken beer bottle. It's a sheer miracle she escaped." Karim, who recorded Runu's statement, said her husband brought her to Bhubaneswar on Saturday to abort her six-month-old preborn child. Police charged Rama with attempted murder.[78]

- Nanda Kumari of Upperpally Village, was pregnant and joyfully awaiting the birth of her child, but her husband Shekhar was not quite so happy. He tried to browbeat her into having an abortion, but she refused. She fled to her parent's home, but her husband and his relatives would continually harass her, demanding that she have an abortion. Finally, in 2002, Shekhar and his mother forced Nanda to have an abortion at a private hospital. She became despondent, and, one day, when nobody else was home, she doused herself with gasoline and burned herself to death.[79]
Israel
Dr. Fuad Mussa, a senior surgeon at Be'er Sheva's Soroka Medical Center, had impregnated his girlfriend, and he demanded that she have an abortion. She refused, so he decided to hire three street thugs to perform the procedure. In 1999, the thugs attacked his girlfriend, and beat her so severely that she gave birth to a stillborn son. Mussa watched the entire brutal episode.
He was sentenced to eight years' imprisonment.[80]
Kenya
In April 2004, Jamin Mukobero Muchika of Shianda Village in Kakamega District, Kenya, went on a bloody rampage. He slashed his pregnant wife Sussy to death, then murdered all four of his other children, Fanice, Evans, Oscar and Edgar. He also slashed to death his nephew, Aggrey, and his sisters-in-law Hannah and Felistas. He also slashed seven other relatives who survived, including an 82-year-old man, and then tried to commit suicide by swallowing a pesticide. On May 20, 2004, Muchika was charged with ten counts of murder.[81]
Nicaragua
Pro-abortionists in Nicaragua hate free discourse and are even more irrational and violent than those in North America.
A person from a pro-abortion group in Managua apparently had a crisis of conscience, and leaked a document that outlined a plot to "wipe out" bishops, priests and laymen who were leading a 2001 Catholic campaign in the country against the legalization of abortion.
As a result of this credible threat, on April 8, 2001, Nicaraguan President Arnoldo Aleman ordered police to provide special protection for Cardinal Miguel Obando of Managua and several of the country's Catholic bishops who were targeted for assassination. Cardinal Obando said the document indicated that the assassination plot could extend to religious and lay leaders of the pro-life movement in other Central American nations.
The archbishop said he had not yet filed a formal complaint with police because he was not sure his informants were willing to testify before authorities.[82]
Pakistan
In India, pro-abortion mobs torture and murder pro-life physicians. In Pakistan, they gang-rape pro-life nurses.
Rubina Kousar works as a nurse in the Mattrai Health Center in Western Punjab. Two women in her village were pregnant and wanted her to perform illegal late-term abortions on them. For six months, the male members of the two women's families had pressured Rubina mercilessly and finally, when they realized that she was pro-life and absolutely would not cave in to their demands, several men broke into her home and gang-raped her. In some isolated parts of Pakistan, village leaders order this kind of retribution against women as punishment for various social "transgressions." Riaz Hussein of the Punjab Healthworkers' Association said that this kind of gang rape is commonly used against pro-life women physicians and nurses. She said that "In the past our staff have been subjected to this type of victimization for refusing to carry out illegal abortions, but they have not raised their voices for fear of retribution." A crying Rubina told a reporter that "The family came and harassed me but I never imagined they would do this. They have threatened my family with dire consequences if we do not settle this. But this is not the past when we can get pushed around. God will give me the courage to fight them."
Not only do pro-abortion men rape and intimidate pro-life women in Pakistan, but the United Nations bullies the entire nation. In 2000, the United Nations Population Fund (UNFPA) threatened to completely defund all Pakistani health care programs if the country refused to aggressively promote abortion and contraception. Pakistan caved in and agreed to make population control a "national priority."[83]
South Africa
South Africa has by far the highest violent crime rate in the world. In addition, it has the second-worst abortion law in the world, only behind Communist China. But even the South Africans, though thoroughly desensitized to brutality, were shocked by the horrific crimes of pro-abortion mass murderer Paul Meyer.
On June 2, 2004, Meyer, who was already married to another woman, shot his pregnant fiancee, Cindy Jeffrey, in the head to cap his murder spree. Earlier in the day, he had murdered Cindy's mother, Athena van Rooyen, and her sister, along with five other people. Finally, two days later, as police were closing in on him, Meyer shot himself while he was sitting in his car in a Kroonstad park.[84]
Wales
Michael Baldwin, 36, was having an affair with his stepdaughter, 15-year-old Jenna Baldwin, and she was pregnant by him.
Like molesters all over the world, he tried to cover up his crimes with abortion. Baldwin's former cellmate Mark Dando claimed that Baldwin confessed. He said "He wanted her to have an abortion. They started arguing. He said he snapped. He hit her."
After murdering Jenna in September 2002 and burying her body in a shallow grave, Baldwin tried hard to cover his tracks by trying to convince his wife, Desiree, and police, that Jenna was still alive and had run away. He secretly bought a mobile phone and sent text messages purporting to be from Jenna. He was caught when police realized a call he claimed had been from Jenna was never received, and he was put under surveillance.
A jury of eight men and four women took six hours to find the pro-abortionist guilty of murder, and he was sentenced to life in prison. Judge John Griffith Williams said Baldwin, who was charged almost two months after Jenna's disappearance, had shown no remorse.[85]

- These include only cases in which murder, manslaughter or other homicide charges have been brought by the authorities. So a very small percentage of fatal botched abortions would fall into this category, because only a small percentage of cases involve an abortionist wanting an abortion client to die, or showing such incredibly callous disregard for an abortion client's safety that murder or manslaughter charges were lodged by authorities. These numbers do include wanted preborn children, such as when a man strangles his pregnant girlfriend when she refuses to have an abortion, or when he deliberately attacks the preborn child by stabbing or kicking its mother in the abdomen. The numbers do not include "unwanted" preborn children, because they would number in the tens of millions.

- This number is derived using a three-step calculation:
Step 1: How Many Pregnant Women Die Each Year in the United States? There were 4,028,000 births in the United States in the year 2001 [United States Bureau of Commerce, Department of the Census. National Data Book and Guide to Sources, Statistical Abstract of the United States 2002. Washington, DC: U.S. Government Printing Office, 2003. Table 66, "Live Births, Deaths Marriages and Divorces: 1950 to 2001" (The entire Statistical Abstract can be downloaded in PDF (printable Adobe Acrobat) format from the Web site of the Department of the Census at http://www.census.gov/prod/www/statistical-abstract-02.html)]. The maternal mortality rate in the United States is 9.9 deaths per 100,000 live births (the maternal mortality rate is defined as the rate of deaths during pregnancy, delivery, and the two weeks after delivery (the puerperium)) [2002 Statistical Abstract, Table 98, "Infant, Maternal, and Neonatal Mortality Rates by Race: 1980 to 1999"]. This means that about (4,028,000/100,000*9.9) = 400 women die during pregnancy, childbirth and puerperium in the United States each year. Step 2: How Many of These Pregnant Women Were Murdered? There were a total of 635 deaths of pregnant women studied in the Maryland, Cook County and New York surveys mentioned in the text, and 148 of these, or 23.3 percent of all of the deaths, were homicides. If we apply this percentage to the 400 pregnant women who die each year, we arrive at a total of (400*.233) = 93 pregnant women being murdered in this nation each year. Step 3: How Many of These 93 Pregnant Women Were Murdered Because They Were Pregnant? First we have to look at how many pregnant women would be murdered if their killings were purely random. There were 3,169 female murder victims in the United States in the year 2000 [2002 Statistical Abstract, Table 288, "Murder Victims by Age, Sex and Race: 2000." There were 144,984,000 females in the United States in the year 2001 [2002 Statistical Abstract, Table 11, "Resident Population by Sex and Age Group: 1990 to 2001"]. This means that the rate of females being murdered was (3,169*1,000,000/144,984,000) = 21.9 per million. In the United States, there are at any time (4,028,000*9/12) = 3,021,000 pregnant women. The murder rate among pregnant women is (93*1,000,000/3,021,000) = 30.8 per million. This means that about (3,021,000*(30.8-21.9)/1,000,000) = 27 pregnant women are murdered every year because they are pregnant.

- Pro-abortionists often see the most routine of activities as "terrorism" and "extreme violence." For example, Buffalo abortionist Barnett Slepian went wild when several pro-lifers sang Christmas carols outside his home on a public sidewalk, on December 5, 1988. Slepian grabbed a baseball bat and severely injured Ronald Breymeier, 48, by beating him on the head, back, and arms, before smashing out all the windows on Breymeier's van. Slepian surrendered to Town of Amherst police at his home a short time afterwards, and was charged with felony assault and criminal mischief. Local pro-abortionists vocally supported this incredibly violent attack, perhaps because Slepian sniveled that the pro-lifers were anti-Semitic. Clinic owner Marilynn Buckham told the Buffalo News; "I think it's [picketing] religious persecution. These "good Christians" don't respect anyone else's religion." She, of course, made no mention of abortionists respecting the health and rights of pro-lifers [Paul Likoudis. "Buffalo Abortionist Attacks Pro-Lifers with Baseball Bat." The Wanderer, December 15, 1988, page 1].

[*] Many murders and homicides are included under the "fatal botched abortions" category so as not to be double-counted.
|
|
|
- Remember that these include only cases in which murder, manslaughter or other homicide charges have been brought by the authorities. A fair number of fatal botched abortions would fall into this category, because there are many cases involving an abortionist who wanted an abortion client to die, or of abortionists showing such incredibly callous disregard for an abortion client's safety that murder or manslaughter charges were lodged by authorities (these are still counted under fatal botched abortions in order to preclude confusion or double-counting). These numbers do include wanted preborn children, such as when a man strangles his pregnant girlfriend when she refuses to have an abortion, or when he deliberately attacks the preborn child by stabbing or kicking its mother in the abdomen. The numbers do not include "unwanted" preborn children, because then they would number in the tens of millions.

- Joyce Arthur. "The Myth of "Pro-Abortion Violence"," April 2003. Downloaded from the Web site of the Pro-Choice Action Network at http://www.prochoiceactionnetwork-canada.org/not-violent.html on June 16, 2003. Perhaps Arthur's fanaticism is understandable, since she refuses to even debate pro-lifers. In 1999, she said that "Along with most other pro-choice groups, we do not engage in debates with the anti-choice ... Simply put, the right to abortion is not a debatable issue. Access to legal, safe abortion is a fundamental human right, one that should be safeguarded in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. ... Debating anti-choicers would be an abdication of our responsibility to support abortion providers and help women. Simply having a debate with the anti-choice lends legitimacy and credibility to the so-called "pro-life" position. And it provides a platform for dangerous anti-choice propaganda. We do not recognize as legitimate a position that is characterized by falsehood, hypocrisy, small-mindedness and intolerance. Why should we give the appearance of legitimacy to the anti-choice position, when we have our hands full just trying to counter anti-choice misinformation, lies, threats and violence? Would a Jew debate a Nazi?. ... Being pro-choice is the reasonable, moral, middle ground on which most people stand. The pro-choice position is inherently democratic and protects everyone, because whether you like abortion or not, you're responsible for exercising your own choice. The right to choose abortion should not be subject to the whim of the electorate. ... In North America, the "debate" over abortion happened decades ago in our courtrooms, and the anti-choice movement lost. The debate is over the task of the pro-choice community now is to protect and enhance the legal right to abortion, and educate people on the necessity of legal abortion" [Joyce Arthur of the Pro-Choice Action Network. "Why Pro-Choice Supporters Do Not Debate the Anti-Choice." Quoted in "To Debate or Not to Debate." The Caleb Report [Life Decisions, Inc.], July-August 1999, pages 3 and 4]. Note that the pro-aborts used to debate pro-lifers frequently, but only stopped when they were regularly beaten and embarrassed in these debates.
