Jivin J’s Life Links 3-23-09

The daughter told police she gave birth two weeks ago over a toilet. Rainey later said she placed the infant in a bag and dumped the body in the garbage. Rainey said the infant was born dead, but her daughter claimed she saw it breathing.
More information including the judge’s strong reaction here.
Just as the original class of unperson could be destroyed for any reason or no reason at all, this new class can also be destroyed for the supposedly laudable goal of “medical science.”
Which brings me, at long last, to the original non sequitur of the President’s statement. Why is it laudable to destroy embryos for medical research, but not laudable to grow those embryos, or clone those embryos, for other uses? After all, it is hard to imagine a human being more qualified to be an unperson than a fetus cloned in a lab. Yet the President is silent on this conundrum.
Half a century cannot dull the tragedy.
Her name was Brenda. When they found her lying in the grass outside St. Joseph Hospital in Burbank they guessed she was 21, but she was only 16. A man called to say she was there. He didn’t give his name.

Kmiec is a voracious wolf. HIs type are in all of the denominations bidding the work of satan.
Matthew 7:14-16 “14But small is the gate and narrow the road that leads to life, and only a few find it. 15Watch out for false prophets. They come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly they are ferocious wolves. 16By their fruit you will recognize them. Do people pick grapes from thornbushes, or figs from thistles?”
Such terrible news. I am so glad though, that the judge reacted in the manner that he did. What a considerate man! In all honesty, I am glad to see some people in the justice system who refuse to pull the politician line of, “It’s a fetus. Not my problem.” He is getting the child’s life back into the picture, which is wonderful and all too often unacknowledged.
The Florida mother who is charged with the ending of her daughter’s pregnancy is not charged with the DEATH of her grandchild, but with “termination of pregnancy”.
This is what happens when a country embraces a culture of death.
Really sad how someone would consider the words “Pray to End Abortion” inflammatory.
Liz,
Agreed. What about murder? If her daughter wanted to keep the baby you’d think they could go after a more severe penalty.
Where is the outrage from the pro-choicers on this one? This girl had no choice in keeping her baby. Her mother took care of that.
It’s a small comfort to know that there are still a few judges left with a strong sense of right and wrong. I hope he throws the book at ther.
I’m curious as to why the LA Times is resurrecting the death of Brenda Emerson fifty years later, while remaining indifferent to the deaths of Cassandra Bleavins, Margaret Davis, Doris Grant, Denise Holmes, Sara Lint, Natalie Meyers, Katherine Morse, Mary Roe, LaSandra Russ, Diana Lopez, Belinda Byrd, Evangeline McKenna, Claudia Caventou, Lilliana Cortez, Lynette Wallace, Oriane Shevin, Sharon Margrove, Mary Pena, Stella Saenz, Patricia Chacon, Jacqueline Bailey, Cora May Lewis, Mitsue Mohar, Cheryl Tubbs, Maria Gomez, Sara Lint, Maria Lira, Yvonne Tanner, Elizabeth Tsuji…
Oh, that’s right! Their abortions were nice and legal, so they’re not as dead as Brenda! My bad!
I believe pro-lifers in Florida wanted to have license plates manufactured that said, ‘Choose life’.
The usual suspects filed suit to prevent the proposed plan because it violated the separation of church and state. Their reasoning: The words ‘choose life’ are found in the bible, therefore this clearly constituted an establishment of religion.
Never mind that the US constitution forbids ‘congress’ from prohibiting or establishing a religion, not the states, the counties, the cities, the school districts, etc.
Liberal humanists really only care about protecting their liberties.

I support the right of people to have “choose life” license plates.
