Jivin J’s Life Links 4-20-10

Last year the U of C charged its own students with trespassing for having set up their pro-life display on campus….
But the Crown Prosecutor’s Office stayed the charges rather than go ahead with the trial. Nobody knows what the trial’s outcome might have been, but the notion that tuition-paying students become “trespassers” on their own campus when exercising their free speech rights is both shocking and absurd.
…The U of C has informed these students that their conduct is a “Major Violation” in the same category with theft, vandalism, fraud, sexual assault, firearms misuse, and selling drugs.
But regardless of the legal outcome, a national discussion on the topic of “fetal pain” can only help the pro-life movement.
Jill Stanek is a nurse turned speaker, columnist and blogger, a national figure in the effort to protect both preborn and postborn innocent human life.
From the CNA article:
“She understands what happens before a pregnancy, she knows her womb will grow, she knows at some point her water will break, and she knows how the baby will be born,” Gamboa said.
According to CNN:
Advocacy groups are calling for federal officials and the United Nations to investigate Quintana Roo’s handling of the matter, claiming officials did not inform her of her abortion rights.
Officials? What officials? Pregnancy is a private matter, abortion doesn’t need to be discussed. Sheesh. She’s smarter than most pro-aborts, she instinctively knows that killing her baby is not her right.
CNN is reporting that the stepfather of the 11 year old Mexican girl has been arrested. Praying for her and her family.
She’s eleven, though. This is a pretty high-risk pregnancy, given the usual physical development of women that age.
I hope she has a really great doctor.
Not ideal in the least. However, I have worked in postpartum with 12 year old mothers who have come through the process with no physical complications. I do hope, however, as others have stated that the abuser is in jail and that she will be given adequate counseling and support to see her through this difficult situation.
Most telling are the last paragraphs of the CNA article in Spanish, where the proaborts proclaim:
“We had almost convinced the mother, but DIF personnel magically appeared Sunday night in the Rovirosa community. They told the mother that her daughter had an appointment with the gynecologist this Monday and that she ought to accompany her (to Merida)”, pointed out the activist.
Just before this: The Comprehensive Reproductive Choice Group and the Simone de Beauvoir Foundation offered all the support for the travel of the girl and her family, including airline tickets. —to get the abortion in the DF. Something tells me they won’t be offering diapers and baby clothes. :/
This case is tragic, but adding more violence does not undo the wrong perpetrated against this girl.
If they think death is the proper penalty for the baby, what is the proper penalty for the rapist?
