In honor of Native American Heritage Month I want to shed some light on a topic that has bothered me for years, the Washington Redskins. For years there have been petitions, protest and even pleas of government intervention to get rid of the Redskins name. I think the name should stay the way it is.

In the issue of The Slate published September 30th, there was a pair of articles written for the opinion section that discussed the benefits and issues of Greek Life (which has been a heated topic of discussion for decades).

It’s almost comical to hear pro-choice advocates try and explain how an unborn child is not a life at conception. Any doctor or human biologist will testify that it is not just a blob of tissue. An embryo, in its earliest form, leads to a human life. By the end of the third week, a fetus has a heartbeat. When surgical abortions are conducted by the mid-first trimester, the baby has all its appendages. Regardless, 61.3 percent of abortions in America are conducted at this point in pregnancy, every year (741,730).
The pro-life versus pro-choice debate has been a prominent topic of discussion ever since the Roe v. Wade case in 1973. The case determined that it was a woman’s right to have an abortion under the due process clause of the 14th Amendment. Since then, the connotation of the terms pro-life and pro-choice has been misconstrued. Many people consider pro-life activists to be anti-choice. In contrast, many people consider pro-choice activists to be pro-abortion. Such generalizations could not be further from the truth.
