With Christmas and Hanukkah upon us, as with every other gift-giving
occasion, everyone is looking for that perfect gift. &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; 
 During World War II, the Nazis murdered thousands. The world uttered their
disbelief and shock when the concentration camps were liberated and the
horrors made known. How could something so massive go undiscovered for so long
in modern times? &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Oklahoma City experienced the terrible bombing, leaving numerous dead. Who
could forget the pictures of the children being carried away from the rubble?
Everyone asked how this could have happened here in the United States. If only
we could have foreseen the act, surely something could have been done to
prevent it. &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; 
 Littleton, Colo., experienced the shooting of students and teachers on what
seemed to be a normal school day. We asked, ``why didn't these boys show signs
of violent behavior.'' Looking back, we either misinterpreted or ignored the
signs. &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; 
 Every day in all parts of the world, innocent babies are being aborted.
These procedures are done willfully, knowingly and as cruelly as the
above-mentioned atrocities. &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; 
 Killing is going on now, in our time, and we can do something about it. We
can stop it; we can say no more killing. &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; 
 Write to the people who represent us in Harrisburg and Washington. Tell
them you want it stopped. &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; 
 Many injustices cannot be foreseen or prevented. This one we see everyday,
and we can stop it. Think of how you will answer the questions put to you by
your child or grandchild: ``You knew about this? And you did nothing to stop
it?'' The perfect gift of life. &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;

Abortion Is An Atrocity That Can Be Stopped
