• Romans exposed unwanted children on hill tops.
• Children were murdered at birth. 
• Mothers jumped off the Maidenhead bridge with their infants in their arms.
• Pregnant women committed suicide.
• Greek doctors used herbs to abort unwanted foetuses. 
• Wise women would provide tinctures that dislodged pregnancies. 
• Poor women utilised baby farms, where children were routinely starved, beaten and murdered. 
• All manner of harmful instruments were used by women to destroy the foetus. 
• Back street abortionists performed dangerous abortions without anaesthetic to women and girls whom they routinely raped and extorted. 
• Girls were sent to convents where they were beaten and punished for having gotten pregnant. 

So if you are anti safe, legal abortion, YOU ARE THE MURDERER. 

I also had a professor who wrote her dissertation on infant genocide in Victorian culture.
