The World Book Dictionary defines euphemism as "the use of a mild or indirect expression instead of one that is harsh or unpleasantly direct." Planned Parenthood's thrust is to unplan parenthood for unplanned parenthood.
Planned Parenthood is a politically correct euphemism for infanticide. We have rightly passed legislation protecting minors guilty of capital crimes from the death penalty. When will we offer protection from the death penalty to innocent, unborn babies who have committed no crime? More than 38,000 babies' lives have been snuffed at the two abortuaries in Augusta.
When will we stop these atrocious murders?
