A Call to Reclaim America, by Jody Hice: on Abortion


1.2 million deaths from abortions: far more than all US wars

I must state the obvious in no uncertain terms. We are in a life and death struggle. Since the legalization of abortion in 1973, America has averaged about 1.2 million abortions per year. That is a staggering number, and the majority of people cannot in actuality comprehend its enormity. 1.2 million deaths due to abortion represent more deaths than all deaths in America due to heart disease and all forms of cancer combined annually.

Here's another way to attempt to grasp the atrociousness of 1.2 million abortions each year. Since America's founding to the present time, there have been about 30 wars and/or military conflicts. Over that timeframe of almost 240 years there has been a total of about 1.3 million COMBINED deaths due to military action. Nearly as many abortions have been performed, resulting in the death of the child, in a single year than the combined deaths due to every military action.
