Holcomb. I can see no reason why such a kind and humble family had the right to be murdered. It was not just a husband and wife‚ but also their daughter and son‚ who were only 15 and 16 years old. Did they deserve to die? I’m asking you today to take a moment and think about what these two men have done to this poor family. They were no threat to anyone. They never meant any harm. What was their motive? There was no cash in the house and before the day of the murder‚ the Clutters and Mr. Hickcock and Mr

Philosophy 1001-001 A Defense of Abortion in Pregnancy Reduction In this paper I will discuss the relevance of J.J. Thomson’s argument in her article‚ A Defense of Abortion‚ to that of pregnancy reduction and if there is any relevance‚ if there are exceptions or situations where that might change. J.J.
