CP note: For the life of me if don't understand why we can be so sensitive to abused animals and the needless killing of innocent people through the ravages of war, but are desensitized to the silent holocaust of the murdering of 70+ million unborn children through 40 years of abortion in the U.S. alone. The following testimony of an ex-abortionist will give you a graphic view from his perspective of what goes on during an abortion procedure and what amounts to torture on an unborn child. God forgive us for this sin and the judgment that it is bringing to our nation.
Dr. Anthony Levatino is a pro-life
physician from New Mexico but, before having a change of heart on the
issue of abortion he was an OBGYN who also performed abortions.
Levatino did as many as 1,200 abortions — some of them after 20 weeks
of pregnancy. Then, after his daughter died in a tragic automobile
accident, he re-evaluated his position on abortion and stopped doing
abortions.
Today, Dr. Levatino told members of a Congressional committee that they should support a bill sponsored by Rep. Trent Franks that would ban abortions nationwide aft 20 weeks of pregnancy.
Levatino’s full testimony before the Subcommittee on the Constitution and Civil Justice appears below:
Chairman
Franks and distinguished members of the subcommittee, my name is
Anthony Levatino. I am a board-certified obstetrician gynecologist. I
received my medical degree from Albany Medical College in Albany, NY in
1976 and completed my OB-GYN residency training at Albany Medical Center
in 1980.
