    I'm sure you've all seen Gary's second open letter to Eddie Vedder on the subject of abortion. Now this is by no means an attempt to get a debate sparked on abortion, that's a very touchy subject, basically I was wondering has Vedder ever responded? I don't think he has, but I was just curious.

    No Eddie Vedder has never responded.

    I'm not sure why Gary cares what he thinks about abortion anyway!

    I know that I don't.

    I can understand that Gary's emotions toward this subject are very fierce, but releasing another open letter is going to begin to run this issue into the ground.

    I wonder if Eddie said anything to him that the public hasn't heard.

    <HR></BLOCKQUOTE>Keep in mind though that this letter was released to a website that is based upon these specific views of abortion. It's completely on topic with what they believe in.

    I don't necessarily agree with Gary's views on this (how's that for being vague?) but it's a pretty important issue, and he can't be expected to back off on it just for fear of running the issue into the ground. These are people who feel they are fighting for voiceless victims, so therefore if they don't continue to speak out, who will?

    I respect Gary for being passionate about the issue. Even though I may not agree with him, it seems as though he's conducting himself in an intelligent manner, which sure beats people who try to solve this issue with threats and weapons.

    I can see right where this topic is going. (non VH related)

    Being adopted myself, I see all sides to this.
    I also respect a women's choice, but someone that has multiple abortions would be different.
    and if adoption were legal when I was born, then I could have very well been aborted myself.
    This is a very sensative subject and probably belong in another forum or site all together.

    <HR></BLOCKQUOTE>Keep in mind that Eddie has been arrested for gun possesion, so he's apt to blow us all away before we even get the question out.
