The rights of children as individuals begin while yet they remain the foetus...Whoever has read the 'Weekly' knows I hold abortion (except to save the life of the mother) to be just as much murder as the killing of a person after birth is murder.
Victoria Woodhull
Women have every right they just have to excercise them.
Victoria Woodhull
