Be sure to let us know your thoughts, Don.
The work of planned parenthood to revoke our laws is being made clear. Father Paul Marx, founder of Human Life International, said that Roe v. Wade brought the back alley abortion into the front window. Abortion will not be stopped. Abortion will be defunded when Roe v. Wade is overturned.
Hollywood is bragging about cannibalizing aborted babies. The abortion ice cream must taste like blood.
Impromptu Contra-Parenthood is their mission, despite their “Planned Parenthood” name. Elective abortion, whether by surgeon’s knife or pharmacist’s potion, will go away when females cease craving it and not a moment sooner.

I agree very much with your statement.
Exposing the deed for what it is and the grave consequences of killing an innocent child will eventually help women to do the right thing.
Unfortunately it is taking so long to help form a social conscience that agrees with the pro-life consensus. I keep praying for that lone feminist who will step in front of the line of tanks. Stopping the whole advance. Clearing the consciences of feminist everywhere.. clearing them from their fog of legal abortion. That it is never right. Never a means to justify a killing of a baby. Never!
I can dream.
“I keep praying for that lone feminist who will step in front of the line of tanks.” You know that didn’t work, right? The man who stepped in front of the tanks is in a mass grave somewhere. He didn’t stop the tanks, he temporarily inconvenienced them, because the softhearted tank commander did not really want to squash him like a bug. A more optimistic picture, if you are fascinated with tanks, would be Yeltsin climbing atop a tank. In Yeltsin’s case it worked, but Americans have fallen hard for the “Russia = bad” narrative.
At any rate, any number of feminists HAVE tried to step in front of tanks, sadly with little more success than our Chinese friend had. The late Norma McCorvey, the “Roe” of Roe v. Wade, comes to mind. But the abortion epidemic is like the opioid epidemic: both are more about moral weakness than about ignorance, and there is no magic bullet for either.
Justices Blackmun and Brennan went off the rails in Roe v. Wade when they used the right of privacy and the right to choose in the penumbra of un-enumerated human rights to invade the privacy of the womb and murder the inhabitant, the sovereign soul, the sovereign person living in the womb.
Roe v. Wade overrides the enumerated right to life of the sovereign person. The penumbra of un-enumerated human rights includes the enumerated human rights in our Founding Principles. Separating the innate, enumerated human rights to Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness from the penumbra of un-enumerated human rights is miscarriage of Justice.
The illusion of normalcy violates our legacy to our Constitutional Posterity
Bloody oceans of ink have been spilled over abortion.
Only three words apply: “Abortion Is Murder.” Everything said/written in support is a lie.
Almost as horrible as 63 million murdered babies is the willful failure of church hierarchy and priests to communicate 2,000 years of Church Teaching on the subject.
@ Howard.
Your right. Bad example on my part. Thanks for the reprove.
God help us all in the fight to end abortion.

Abortion will go away when men start caring for their children and their children’s mothers.
Read Susan B. Anthony’s speeches on the responsibility of men for their pregnant wives.
Howard wrote, “But the abortion epidemic is like the opioid epidemic: both are more about moral weakness than about ignorance, and there is no magic bullet for either.”
I would go further and say that ignorance plays no part in it.
In his Rethinking Life and Death (1996), Princeton bioethicist, Peter Singer submitted that “[The argument that a fetus is not alive] is a resort to a convenient fiction that turns an evidently living being into one that legally is not alive. Instead of accepting such fictions, we should recognise that the fact that a being is human, and alive, does not in itself tell us whether it is wrong to take that being’s life” and goes on to justify both abortion and infanticide.
In 2012 a paper in the Journal of Medical Ethics, “After-birth abortion: why should the baby live?” by Alberto Giubilini and Francesca Minerva, expressed similar views.
Indeed, there seems no reason why the logic of the first article of the Veil Law ((Law No. 75-17 of January 1975, concerning the Voluntary Termination of Pregnancy), “The law guarantees respect for every human being from the outset of life. There shall be no derogation from this principle except in cases of necessity and under the conditions laid down by this Law,” should not apply after birth, as well as before it.
I doubt that any film can truly show the horrors of this man but I appreciate the effort even if many will not see it simply because they wish to avoid the unpleasantness.
