I believe Mr. Walsh makes reference to a culture of death that has infected our country. Could war be part of that? Sure. But we've had wars in this country since the 1670's. However, look around. Our environment is cleaner than it has been in 75 years. Stripers are routinely being caught in the Providence River, you can eat off most highways not located in RI, and our water remains the cleanest in the world. As for poverty, we declared war on it fifty years ago. Untold trillions have been spent, all to no avail. It's time to acknowledge defeat and move on. Mr. Walsh has rightly identified a cultural evil, a national abortion policy that makes citizens in Europe, Asia, and South America look upon us as barbarians. If we routinely dismember the most vulnerable among us, how can we possibly claim the moral high ground on war, the environment, and poverty?
