In the 1970s, high school students in the southern United States who were pregnant didn't exist. A person who got pregnant before graduation could not go to class showing.

So, when I found myself in that situation, a few months from graduation and with a college scholarship; my choices were to either drop out and stay pregnant or to get an abortion.

This past weekend in Charlotte, the local Catholic diocese bussed in about 100 people for a march to Trade and Tryon where they prayed, made a scene, held signs, and entertained speakers pontificating on all manner of fake things like the so called “abortion pill reversal” procedure that causes massive hemorrhaging.
