- Two unborn children are set to “testify” before an OH committee:
2 in-utero babies will appear live before the committee by an ultrasound projector which is able to not only show that baby’s moving arms and legs, but also display – in color – the baby’s beating heart.
- In the New York Times, Clyde Haberman reflects on the recent removal of a pro-life billboard in NYC and discusses how tolerance in New York comes and goes based on whether the message conforms to popular opinion:
Was this anti-abortion statement subtle? Hardly. Accurate? Depends on your politics. Offensive? For some people, yes. Out of step with mainstream thought in New York? For sure. And so, a few days ago in this most tolerant of cities, a raft of elected officials wasted no time calling for the billboard’s removal….
This plain act of censorship was not isolated. Rather, it fit into an established New York pattern of squelching unpopular opinions. Examples over the past decade abound.
- The University of IA is being criticized for allowing one of their professors, abortionist Jill Meadows (pictured left), to quit her job and work for a nearby Planned Parenthood (which violates a non-compete clause in her contract) as long as she continued to train students on how to do abortions:
Ordinarily, university doctors cannot go to work within a 50-mile radius of Iowa City for 2 years after they leave employment under the school’s non-compete agreements, which are common in the medical field. Meadows signed the agreement when she joined the obstetrics reproductive and gynecology faculty in 1999. She told the university last year she was resigning June 30 to become medical director for Planned Parenthood of the Heartland, which serves patients in IA and NE.
Under a legal settlement dated June 22 and released to AP last week, the university said it believed her departure would violate the non-compete agreement. But the school agreed not to seek legal action to block her employment as long as she would take a position as an unpaid adjunct clinical faculty member, and continue to provide training to medical residents and students at the PP clinic in Iowa City.
- DE abortionists Albert Dworkin and Arturo Apolinario are fighting against the possible suspension of their medical licenses:
Both Dworkin and Apolinario work at Atlantic Women’s Medical Services, an abortion provider with clinics in Wilmington and Dover that employed Gosnell one day a week for years.

About time the kids got an opportunity to have their “say” on the subject of unborn human rights. After all, their “people” have had to endure a worse holocaust than anyone other group of humans has ever had to.
On the subject of New York City, I think it is a myth that the overwhelming majority of people in New York are anti-life, let alone militantly so. A few years ago, I think it was the New York Post which conducted a poll and asked people if they were “pro-life” or “pro-choice”. I believe that the anti-life position won out by a small margin over pro-life. There are large numbers of traditional white Catholics and some Orthodox Jews, along with large numbers of pro-life Black Southern Baptists and Hispanic Catholics.
The “support” for the abortionist “mentality” is heavily concentrated in dwindling, weakly reproducing population groups. These would include upper class and counterculture sexual liberals, especially non-Jewish (because they have abandoned Jewish moral teaching) Hebrews and “liberal” mainline “Protestants”, that is to say non-Protestants (because they have abandoned Christian moral teaching).
There is support for unborn human rights in New York City. The problem is the same as everywhere else. That is, pro-life Black and Hispanic voters vote overwhelmingly for anti-life Democratic politicians and this kills our chances in every election. The Democratic political machine controls New York State politics and the abortionists control the Democratic Party. So therefore pro-life minority voters vote anti-life without meaning to. If we are to hope to stop the slaughter of our children, in New York and around the country, this must change.
What can I say? Free speech for me, but not for thee . . .
Here’s a nice quote right off Panned Barrenhood’s own site:
http://www.plannedparenthood.org/parents/human-sexuality-what-children-need-know-when-they-need-know-it-4421.htm
By age five, children need to know
that love should make people feel good, safe, and wanted
that people’s bodies are different sizes, shapes, and colors
how the bodies of girls and women are different from the bodies of boys and men
that people’s bodies belong to themselves
the correct names for all body parts, including sex and reproductive organs
how to talk about their sexual parts without feeling naughty
that it’s normal to touch one’s sex organs for pleasure
to seek privacy when touching one’s sex organs for pleasure
how a “baby” “gets in” and “gets out” of a woman’s body
that a woman does not have to have a baby unless she wants to
how to talk with trusted adults about sexual issues, questions, and concerns
how to say, “No,” to unwanted touch
Isn’t this just so special? Your tax dollars at work.
Tony, congratulations! You have succesfully changed my mind from pro-life to pro-choice because of your classy, eloquent, articulate arguments based on science and logic.
Not.
Hi Tony.
I actually don’t think any of your comments have been “censored”, although to use the word censor in this case would be a misnomer because it implies that there would be substance to your comment that we are trying to keep suppressed. The fact is, if you have any sort of rational argument that you would like to present in favor of abortion, we would be happy to entertain it. I see you’ve already converted Mary Lee to the pro-choice position simply by referring to Catholics as POS… imagine how many of us you could convert by referring to all Christians and, better yet, all pro-lifers as POS. God love you.
Tony:
Remember, you are a former unborn child. So have some respect.
Bobby, you know I was kidding, right?!
I’m not at all anti-Catholic and have been attending the Episcopal church recently!
Haha, of course I know Mary Lee. I too, was being sarcastic above :)
Whew!
Hooray.
how a “baby” “gets in” and “gets out” of a woman’s body
Make sure you use quote marks around the word “baby” while talking to your five-year-old; in a few years, you’ll need to indoctrinate her about abortion. And be especially sure that she understands the lesson about unwanted touching, because if her molestor brings her in to Planned Parenthood, we certainly aren’t going to report it.
Five year olds do NOT need to know how the baby gets INSIDE….
My brother’s oldest is 9. She knows that when her mom was pregnant, there was a baby in her tummy. She did not need to know HOW the baby got there. Neither did her sister before their brother was born 4 years ago. And They didn’t need to know HOW before their youngest sibling was born last year.
As for how a baby gets out….they’ll learn that at the right time. I took a class called child development in high school. Can’t recall if we watched a birth, but I know how a baby gets in the woman’s body and how the baby gets out.
Teaching five year olds its okay to touch their privates…..that’s disgusting.
And why would a five year old need to talk about their private body parts?
my youngest nephew just turned 4….he likes trucks/cars, the movie ‘Cars’, trains and jets.
