Whether or not they want to acknowledge it or fight it or they're angry about it or angry that someone would say, you know, I don't look down my nose at anybody that's had an abortion. I don't.

And I think a lot of people struggle with it, and my heart goes out to them. I mean, this is not a condemnation book either. It's not a grief book. It's also not a condemnation book. We are left with it sometimes.

And then one of the girls came out who had just finished her procedure, and she sort of hopped out and said, well, that's taken care of. And it was just, there was like a collective moment of what seemed like deep sadness between these four young men. who were on a journey that they didn't mean to be on. Nobody feels good about ending a life. I don't think they do. That's where I come from.

The consequence of, you know, what we do to ourselves, what we haunt ourselves with these ideas that maybe all my action took my sister's life. That was horrible. I did go through that for a while.

And that's, you know, that's the enemy. It's, you know. Always out there too.

And there's a whole, I just came upon a section where it said, the primary thing right now is to keep people in fear. 1950 whatever. It's been going on for a long time.
