2. This happens more than you know

It happened in my home town, for crying out loud. Some people just "ain't right".

BushCo must be in serious trouble, though, if this is the new national news.

6. It's a permanent state of mind or so it seems

Never know who are looney tunes and who are just marginally berserk.

8. I watched a documentary on this phenomenon

a couple of months ago. It's almost unbelievable to think of and truly devastating for all involved. IIRC, there has been a dozen cases in the US to date (the above would make it 13)

10. The "right-to-lifers" won't mind though.

After all, no-one is killing the baby.

PITTSBURGH - A woman hit her pregnant neighbor over the head with a baseball bat, drove her to a secluded area and cut her belly in an attempt to steal her baby that was thwarted only at the last minute, authorities said.

Police said Wednesday’s attack on Valerie Oskin was stopped before her baby was taken only because a teenager on an all-terrain vehicle came across the women in the woods.

12. This occurred about 15 miles from where I live.

How awful. I heard on the radio that the baby is expected to live, but the mother is in critical condition.

13. This has happened in New Mexico twice, I believe

This time last year I was pregnant and was looking over my shoulder quite a bit.
