The abortion video - a twelve year old girl speaks out

This video has been posted on youtube for two weeks and is creating a sensation. The girl is a 12 year old seventh grader in Toronto.

From Lifesitenews:

Lia's mother says that the topic was of her own choosing, and that she was
determined not to back down, even after teachers told her it was "too
mature" and "too controversial."

"She was also told that if she went ahead with that topic, she would not
be allowed to continue on in the speech competition," Lia's mother wrote
in the email to the Moral Outcry blog.  "Initially, I tried helping her
find other topics to speak on, but, in the end, she was adamant. She just
felt she wanted to continue with the topic of abortion. So she forfeited
her chance to compete in order to speak on something she was passionate
about."

The mother told LSNews.com (LSN) that the girl's homeroom teacher was
supportive of Lia's speech even though she was pro-abortion.  "After
helping Lia do the speech she said, 'It really got me thinking,'" the mom
noted.

At the schoolwide competition, the mom said one pro-abortion teacher on
the judge's panel "didn't even want to hear" the speech, and stepped down
from the panel before Lia began.  After the speech, which Lia's family
said was well-received by both students and teachers, the judges initially
told Lia she had indeed been disqualified.  But controversy among the
judges eventually led to a reversal, and Lia's family learned the next day
that the panel agreed the girl deserved to win the competition.
