Please take a moment to watch the short video below and then share it. If you’ve ever wondered just how damaging abortion has been to our country, this video will make the impact crystal clear.

Abortion was unilaterally legalized in America in 1973 by the Roe V Wade Supreme Court decision. Since that fateful date in American history, more than 58 million unborn children have been murdered on our soil. This is the greatest holocaust the world has known.

The video below gives a powerful picture of what it really means to be missing 58 million souls from our country.

As you watch the video, the bell tolls every time 1 million is reached. So unlike a typical clock that chimes no more than 12 times at once, this bell will toll 58 times before the video is done. You won’t forget this bell either. When you hear other bells chime you will remember this foreboding toll.

And, slowly but surely you will watch as entire states disappear from the picture of the United States. As the numbers pile up, states disappear, representing the number of lives lost. In all, 24 states disappear. Nearly half of the United States is gone by the end of this video. Let that sink in for a minute.

One thing I couldn’t help but notice is that more than half of all the abortions to date, 30 million, took place in the first 20 years after Roe (1973-1993). In the last 24 years, however, the number of abortions has declined (28 million). Fewer abortions in a longer amount of time is encouraging. This, along with many abortion clinics closing, signals a change in Americans’ opinion on abortion.

Defunding Planned Parenthood International is a great step in supporting life abroad. Now, our government needs to defund Planned Parenthood right here in America. It’s a well-established fact that a super-majority of Americans don’t want abortion funded with federal dollars. Defunding Planned Parenthood is a common sense, bi-partisan decision that every American can get behind.

Share this video to remind people how deadly abortion has been for our country. And support local care pregnancy centers that give life-saving alternatives to abortion. (If the video doesn’t appear automatically, please refresh your browser.)
