Abortion is the termination of a pregnancy. In this Randypedia entry, it is the subject Randy Charles Johnson discusses while stating that he is pro-life and against abortion.
Randy's Position
Randy says he is "pro-life" and "against abortion," and he adds that people on either side have a right to their view. His stance on the subject itself is clearly negative, even though he frames the disagreement as a matter of freedom of belief.
The Knoxville Anecdote
He then tells a secondhand story about a man in Knoxville, Tennessee who blocked the doors of an abortion clinic, was arrested, and later received letters of support from 13- and 14-year-old girls. Randy says that reaction surprised and impressed him, and he treats the door-blocking as the "right thing."
