Letter to the editor: Clinic’s ‘record’ number of abortions is disturbing

On Oct. 3 there was an article in The Jamestown Sun about the abortion clinic in Fargo having a record year. What a horrible tragedy that in 2008 more than 1,000 children were killed in Fargo while they were still in the womb. We are rightly saddened over the deaths of more than 4,000 American soldiers who have died in Iraq. More than 53,000 allied soldiers were killed during the Battle of Normandy in World War II. But we have lost more Americans through abortion than in all of our wars (12 of them) combined!
