Pressured into aborting twins, British artist hangs herself

Not long ago, disbarred lawyer Bill Clinton claimed (falsely) that since pro-lifers consider abortion to be murder, they must favor jailing women who have abortions and doctors who perform them.

In fact, the pro-life movement has been quite consistent in making clear that it does not favor legal penalties of any kind for women who have abortions. Women who have abortions are the second victims; they are often pressured and manipulated into getting them, with tragic psychological consequences later. Far from wanting to jail women who have abortions, pro-lifers want to spare them the trauma of realizing later just what they've done.

The tragic case of English artist Emma Beck is a case in point.
