Letters to the Editor

Posted on Sept. 27, 2007, at 12:00 a.m.

The Susan G. Komen Race For The Cure took place this month in Bangor. The Pink Crusaders-We’re In It For The Cure were there on the sidewalk -you cannot rent the sidewalk – to give out information about the scientific evidence concerning the abortion-breast cancer link. Susan G. Komen and company refuse to acknowledge this evidence. The right to abortion was delivered upon society in the 1973.

Unfortunately, the generation of women who came of age in the 60s and 70s have many disciples who are not open to considering evidence that would tarnish their hard-won right. They have succumbed to the huge socio-medical complex that stands to profit from the abortion industry and its ancillary businesses. The potential is in the younger generations, who are open to this information. They do not see the link between abortion and feminism. That is refreshing and hopeful.

Jean Barry, 2005 University of Maine alumna with a master’s degree in science education.

    When a women gets pregnant then her milk comes in and it needs to go some where, so women who need to get an abortion should be taught by they’re doctors to pump out they’re milk, so they won’t get breast cancer. Mammograms are also known to give people breast cancer, so therefore should be banned from the U.S. and around the world. No age is a good age for a Mammogram, they do more harm then good.
