Anyone who refutes Monica Devine’s assertion (Letters, February 27), that
promoting abortion encourages men to abuse should consider the case of the
Asburton farming contractor convicted last week of a frenzied attack on his
pregnant ex. He bashed her with a baseball bat so hard it snapped in two.
He was seeing someone else. So he wanted her to get an abortion. And why
not? You can get them so easily. Lots of women have abortions. But she wanted to
keep her baby.
She suffered a fractured skull and terrible facial injuries,
including a broken eye socket. She pretended to be dead, and survived. We don’t
know if her baby did.
Could the supporters of women’s ‘rights’ please explain how the availability of abortion '
liberated' this woman?
