Yeah, this was going around at the capitol yesterday.
In all of the variants, there is that downward hand motion that indicates throwing away the child like garbage.
Well, that certainly says it all. Brutally honest.
It is heartbreaking to watch.
But the truth of abortion is exactly that. :(
Abortion is a euphemism. It means stopping a process. Like that other famous euphemism, “choice,” abortion avoids mentioning that the aborted process is a “pregnancy,” just as choice avoids mentioning that the thing chosen is “killing a child.”
I am glad that sign language does not admit the sinister ambiguity. The discarded thing is obviously a child in the womb, and there is no mistaking it. Pure truth.
Disposing of that bothersome and unwanted corpse poses a problem for the murderers. Especially when there are so many dead bodies. Even the brutally efficient national SOCIALSTs with all their vaunted intellectual prowess could not devise an inconspicuous method to hide the evidences of their barbaric utilitarianism.
The silent screams of all that innocent blood is not falling on deaf ears.
HE is not slow as some stupid humans suppose, but HE is ‘patient’, giving ear to the intercessory prayers of the hundreds of millions slain at the hands of these humanist bigots. The victims ask repeatedly, “How long, Father God”…before Your patient mercy gives way to Your ‘terrible swift sword’ of justice?
Their prayer is not as some presume: Jesus, come quickly and avenge our blood. [His love does NOT remember a wrong suffered.]
But instead, led by the power of His great love, they are petitioning Him to enable these foolish mortals with the ability to turn away from their horrendous folly and be forgiven.
That says it all. “Baby.” “Get rid of.” :(
Looks also like “washing your hands” and cleaning the dirt off of you in sink.
Not quite. “Rocking a baby” then “picking he or she up and throwing away”.
Another sign for abortion shows the left hand in front of the belly, palm down. The right hand, palm up, comes up underneath the left. With a scraping motion of the fingers, pull the right hand from left to right across the underside of the left hand and then down. It demonstrates the uterus being scraped and the baby thrown away. That is what I like about ASL, the visual image shows exactly what happens.
