Letter: Ensign’s abortion views consistent

Friday, Nov. 3, 2000 | 10:02 a.m.

Ensign is a strong supporter of the government's involvement with murderers. Intentionally killing a human absent of personal danger at any age is murder.

Brian Greenspun's column in the same edition supports the editorial's position but additionally mentions that "individual rights must be paramount to the wants and needs of government." How about the babies' rights or the rights of the fathers who may object to the murder of their children?

The GOP and Ensign do not object to abortion in cases of rape, incest or when the mother's life is in danger. Your comments would be more truthful if you included that Ensign is consistent in wanting government's involvement in all murders.
