Ever since the shooting of the notorious abortionist George Tiller last Sunday, the media has been going crazy with accusations of blame against all pro-life people. Saying that the “Rhetoric” and calling abortion “murder of babies in the womb” , created the “climate for violence” is ridiculous. But, Okay, if they want to play this game…how come the media refuses to show America what Dr. Tiller did?
Let’s put this whole incident to rest and for that matter let’s put the entire abortion question to rest and finally show on national TV the images of aborted babies. Let the people decide for themselves.
Why should we continue to engage a media who refuses to show the truth of abortion?
Even Fox News is taking attacks by the left because O’Reilly called the late-term abortionist – “Tiller the Killer” – Come on Bill, STOP THE SPIN and show the pictures. Where is your courage and conviction to truth???
What happened to “We report – you decide“?
I have recently watched Animal Planet’s program: Whale Wars , and was surprised that there has been no reaction to the show by all these so-called “non-violent” liberals among us.
The show is filmed on board the Sea Shepard, led by a Captain Paul Watson who was an early member of Greenpeace. Watson admitted on one show that he believed that Greenpeace only raised money to “save whales” but he intended to actually stop the killing. The Sea Shepherd travels the ocean waters looking for Japanese Whaling Fleets , and once located they attack the fleets often with stink bombs and other devises meant to, “shut the killing factories down.” According to Greenpeace, a 2008 article in the New Yorker reported that Watson claimed that the Sea Shepherd had sunk ten ships since its founding.
So, we have environmentalists actually filming their acts of Vandalism to Property and possibly people, then broadcasting their “deeds” weekly on Cable and Satellite TV. To my knowledge, the show has not been criticized by those who claim that calling something “murder” can lead to the violence of those who actually do the “murder”. Meanwhile, in the wake of the shooting of abortionist, George Tiller, the news media is doing flip flops attempting to label all “non-Violent Speech” by pro-lifers as “Inciting murder and Violence“.
I am confused here? Does the liberal left believe in non-violence or not? Why do they attack free speech on the right but are silent at best and even condone the acts of violence and terrorism on the left? Is saving whales more important than saving human life?
I believe in free speech and the constitutional right to protest and speak out…but if these screaming pro-abortion – whale loving radicals have their way, they will silence pro-life people and in the process hurt their own precious causes as well. Perhaps the most dangerous speech, is not that which truthfully calls abortion the taking of a human life, but speech which, instead, silences opposition and by doing so, places freedom for all at risk .
A New York City law that will go into effect in July could make it easier for pro-life protesters to be arrested outside abortion clinics. Current law allows authorities to make arrests only if the person directly affected, such as a woman entering a clinic, is willing to press charges. However, the new law would allow third parties, such as clinic workers, to press charges if they witnessed the activity.
This is a very dangerous and ridiculous law. It leaves the decision in the hands of the very business making a profit off the abortions. What do you think they will do with all that power?
I wonder if the State of New York would also allow pro-lifers who witness women suffering from post abortion injuries to “press charges” against clinics? Suppose the New York State Medical Board allowed “third parties” to file complaints and never interviewed the person injured.
Perhaps the State of New York could save money by allowing all those who “Witness” a speeding car on the highway to issue a ticket to the offender.
The entire premise of this law is absurd and is meant to discriminate against the free speech rights of pro-lifers. I only hope and pray that if a false accusation occurs, those other pro-lifers who witness the accusation by the pro-abort will file charges as well.
I guess if we can dismantle the rights of all human beings to “Life” as granted in our Constitution, we can also chop out the right a person has to “face his accuser”. Just goes to show you the unlevel playing ground the pro-abortion mindset has.
It is time America faces the truth about late term abortions. They are legal and are being performed for “any reason” in all stages of pregnancy.
In 1997, Pro-choice spokesperson, Ron Fitzsimmons of the National Coalition of Abortion Providers (NCAP) Told Nightline this about the number of late term abortions being done, “The majority of these procedures are performed in the late second trimester on healthy women and healthy fetuses. That’s — the law allows that. Women come in at that point unfortunately, for whatever reason, seeking abortion services. We estimate that approximately 3,000 to 5,000 are performed in the United States on an annual basis.” ( NCAP is an organization of abortionists).
The Bergen (NJ) Record interviewed an abortion clinic employee in 1996 who admitted that “Most (late-term abortions) are for elective, not medical, reasons: people who didn’t realize, or didn’t care, how far along they were.” (This person was employed by a New Jersey clinic that performs at least 1,500 partial-birth).
In 1990, The LA Times asked, Anne Walshe who is an abortion clinic administrator in Manhattan, her view on late term abortions and she replied, “What’s the difference? Abortion is abortion. The nice folks who are debating this, who want to draw the line and put a limit on gestational age, will just be putting a restriction on poor women. Women who want abortions get them…These women know they are pregnant, but not until the 16th or 17th week, when the fetus is kicking and bothering them, do they say, ‘Oh, I have to deal with this,’ ” she says. “It’s not that these women are bad, or they’re wrong. They’re just poor. They don’t lead organized, routine lives.” Walsh’s clinic does as many as 16,000 abortions a year. At least half are performed during the second trimester.
And to respond to the lie that few abortionists do late term abortions, listen to late-term abortionist, Warren Hern’s response to the New York Times in 2000: (Responding to the competitive business of late term abortion). “The startling thing to me was that a very large room was filled — packed. Twenty years ago, there were just two or three doctors in the country doing late abortions.“
Now that you have heard the opinions of the pro-choicers on this matter, I wish the truth would be told by the media. However if they are still ignorant to truth, here are the ads that the abortion industry advertises their “Late Term” Killings under. Click Here , after all MONEY TALKS, huh?
MAAFA 21 DVD BLACK GENOCIDE IN 21ST CENTURY AMERICA
An incredible documentary that everyone must see.
Introduction:
They were stolen from their homes, locked in chains and brought across an ocean. And for more than 200 years, their blood and sweat would help build the richest and most powerful nation the world has ever known.
But when slavery ended, their welcome was over. America’s wealthy elite had decided it was time for them to disappear and they were not going to be particular about how it might be done.
What you are about to see is that the plan these people set in motion 150 years ago is still being carried out today. So don’t think that this is history. It is not. It is happening right here, right now.
If you think that slavery and racism is over, you will be shocked when you watch this well documented DVD exposing the racism that is still taking place within America. Maafa21 is a high quality documentary with incredible documentation – A MUST SEE for every African American !
Liberal Open-Minded and “Tolerant” Pro-aborts attack pro-lifers who protest abortion by picketing or even blocking entrance to abortion clinics, calling their right to protest and speak “incitement”. In their typical biased way, they fail to remember that many of those who did abortions before Roe, were doctors who did them illegally and lay people who illegally referred and had “underground railroads” of sort to challenge state laws.
The icon of the pro-choice movement, Margaret Sanger herself was arrested in her effort to challenge state laws on dispensing contraception. She is the founder of the nation’s top abortion provider: Planned Parenthood and to this day they esteem her as a hero.
It is interesting that when those same measures (like were used with the Civil Rights Movement, Woman’s movement, pro-abortion movement, and even the homosexual rights movement) are used by pro-life people, that so-called liberal, open-minded, “get your laws off my body” pro-choicers scream to have the heavy hand of Gov’t used against them.
This does not surprise me given the fact that Margaret Sanger and her pro-abortion/eugenic lot were some of the loudest promoters of “control” of recent day. Sanger and her Eugenic Board and Eugenic and racist Friends wanted to have final say over who could or could not bear children. She and her Planned Parenthood friends were among some of the most closed minded- control freaks I have ever heard. Members of the Sanger band of followers formed Eugenic boards and dictated who would be forcefully sterilized, who could marry whom, and toyed with the idea of placing birth control agents in rural water supplies to limit the reproduction of those they deemed “unfit” and “Feeble minded.”
Sanger herself called for paupers and the poor to be “segregated on farms and open spaces” and put forth an idea that would allow the general public to only be able to have one child unless they appealed to a board of her racist and eugenic friends. Sanger spoke to at least one Klan Rally and many of her friends corresponded and even supported the Nazis.
If rhetoric, words, and associations are the parameters of a person or group, someone should look closely at the pro-abortion gang. Margaret Sanger’s organization, Planned Parenthood, has a definite connection with racists who wanted to control Jews, Asians, and Blacks (to name a few). Planned Parenthood’s founder and many of it’s board members were members of the American Eugenic Society.
So, while you examine the so-called loose connections that Operation Rescue has to extremists, ask yourself why the media fails to list the names of the Eugenic Connections, associations, and writings of Margaret Sanger the founder of Planned Parenthood to the Klan and eugenics and why, with those racist and eugenic ties, our government gives Planned Parenthood over $ 1 million dollars of tax payer money a day!

The Wichita Eagle ran a front-page story about threats of violence against Operation Rescue and other pro-life groups.
Abortion opponents receive death threats By Tim Potter,
The Wichita Eagle June 19, 2009
Troy Newman, president of Operation Rescue, says the number of threats has increased since the slaying of George Tiller. Three Wichita-based anti-abortion groups say they have received death threats in response to last month’s killing of George Tiller. For years, Operation Rescue has received threats, but the number increased markedly after Tiller’s killing, the group’s president, Troy Newman, said Thursday. Some of the threats have been aimed at anti-abortion activities planned in Wichita this weekend, Newman said. Soon after Tiller’s shooting, police contacted four to five local anti-abortion groups, asking them to contact authorities if they received threats, said Wichita police Capt. Brent Allred.
Allred said police would investigate threats on either side of the abortion issue. “That’s our job… to take a fair and impartial role on this,” he said. For this weekend’s events, off-duty officers have been hired to help provide security, Newman said. It wasn’t clear Thursday whether on-duty officers will be used. The activities will include a prayer vigil Saturday near Tiller’s clinic on East Kellogg. One e-mail referring to this weekend’s activities said there would be “vengeance,” Newman said. Newman said he has received other troubling messages since the shooting. In one, a man said, “You’re dead, punk….” In another, a woman threatened Newman and his family. Newman said he has reported some of the threats to police and that he is taking security measures. “You’re aware of your surroundings, no matter where you are,” he said.
‘Emotions are… high’ Around the nation, anti-abortion leaders have been taking precautions before and after the shooting, said the Rev. Patrick Mahoney, director of the Washington, D.C.-based Christian Defense Coalition. “I don’t want to go into detail, but I know for a fact that numerous pro-life leaders travel with bulletproof vests,” Mahoney said. Wichita is now at the “epicenter” of the fallout over Tiller’s death, he said. A gunman shot Tiller as he was serving as an usher May 31 at his church near Rock Road and 13th Street. “Emotions are running very high in Wichita,” said Mahoney, who said he plans to be at the anti-abortion activities here this weekend. Within hours of the May 31 shooting, Newman said, Allred called to say that authorities were concerned that someone could seek retaliation for Tiller’s death by attacking anti-abortion leaders.
Although abortion opponents have widely condemned the shooting, some of them have been accused of encouraging the attack on Tiller by vocal, often bitter, opposition to doctors performing abortions. Tiller was one of the few doctors nationally providing late-term abortions. Scott Roeder, a 51-year-old who has lived around the Kansas City area and has protested at abortion clinics, has been charged with first-degree murder in Tiller’s death. Mahoney, the Christian Defense Coalition leader, said he has received about 50 death threats over the years but didn’t receive what he would consider a direct death threat after the Tiller shooting – although one man called to say, “You better watch yourself.”
“Abortion is an emotional, controversial subject on both sides of the issue, and when you have that kind of emotion… on the fringes of both sides of the divide you’re going to have people who lash out,” he said. Other threats Just a few hours after the Tiller shooting, Mary Wilkinson was answering phones at the Wichita office of the anti-abortion group Kansans for Life when she got a call that stunned and scared her, she said. “This person was out of control, emotionally, you could just tell” – speaking in a loud, angry tone about Tiller’s killing, she said. She said she wanted to tell him, “We did not have anything to do with this…. That’s not what this organization is about. We were horrified about it and sad about it. Killing is never the answer.” But the person – it sounded like a man, but she wasn’t sure – wouldn’t let her “get a word in edgewise,” she said. “I hope you’re happy,” the person said. “You’ve killed him. Now I hope somebody comes and kills you all.”
The call prompted David Gittrich, the group’s state development director, to call police and report the threat. At the office, the staff waited for an officer to arrive before they left. “Because of that threat, we decided it was time to go home,” Gittrich said. Wilkinson said she feels optimistic now. “I think things are settling down now,” she said. “I just think the community needs some healing time.” A third Wichita-based anti-abortion group, the Kansas Coalition for Life, also has received threats, said the group’s president, Mark Gietzen. Gietzen said he received three serious threats since the shooting, two of which were “bad enough that I called police,” he said. One person left a text message a few hours after the shooting. The message: “One of you is going to die for what you did to Tiller.”
In another story
Fr. Tom Euteneuer, of Human Life International, describes what he and his organization have encountered.
Question: As an outspoken visible pro-life advocate, you work against the goals of pro-abortion politics and the abortion industry. In what ways have you been threatened, either written or verbally, with physical harm?
Fr. Euteneuer: In the days when I was more actively doing sidewalk counseling, I was threatened with death twice by abortion clinic workers, threatened with physical harm numerous times by boyfriends and others who accompanied women to the clinic and several times I was assaulted by people in vehicles trying to run me over. The verbal harassment is too numerous and gross to recount, especially when directed against a man of the cloth.
Question: What forms of harassment have you encountered in your work and travels, and which
groups or organizations seem to be sources of intimidation?
Fr. Euteneuer: There has been less harassment in my work with HLI given that I remain mostly in pro-life circles and focus on training and motivating. The anti-lifers are usually in their comfortable air-conditioned offices plotting the destruction of more children and do not harass us too much both because they are cowards and because they don’t need to have direct contact with us.
Several members of our international network who have direct contact with the abortion lobby in their countries do encounter problems however:
In Kenya an abortionist tried to poison our director;
in Mexico, the HLI director found a knife covered with red blood-like liquid stuck in his couch with a message to stay out of abortion;
in Austria the anti-lifers have sued our affiliate (without success) and the city government of Vienna created special laws against them;
in the Philippines there are attacks against the character of our pro-life people and one parliamentarian called for the deportation of HLI’s Dr. Brian Clowes when he did a speaking tour there;
in Ecuador our affiliate leader was threatened with death, satanic graffiti was put on the door of a church against us, the severed head of a dog was thrown into a church with a desecrated Sacred Host in its mouth.
Question: What specific security steps must you take in order to protect yourself from these attacks?
Fr. Euteneuer: Prayer.
Question: In addition, have you learned of threats or violence to people close to you or in your family?
Fr. Euteneuer: There has only been intimidation of family members like my father who stands in front of the local Planned Parenthood. It is regular fare: he has insults hurled at him and bottles thrown from cars.
Question: How have these instances of intimidation and violence changed over the years?
Fr. Euteneuer: The violence and intimidation seems to change as political fortunes change: it tends to go from personal to institutional. For example, during the Clinton years the FACE Act was passed to shut down Operation Rescue-type protests; we can expect the same and worse in the Obama Administration. The physical assaults and intimidations will likely get worse also as the forces of death are emboldened by radical laws and policies.
Question: Have threats, intimidation or violent harassment ever come in an open or official capacity?
Fr. Euteneuer: HLI was denied official status at the UN in the late ‘90s due to its strong stance on the life issues. The only other example that I can think of in my case is when the Minister of Health in Zimbabwe officially vetoed my talk to a nursing school in Harare. The incident of Dr. Brian Clowes in the Philippines mentioned above is another example. Other than open criticism in the media, we are more of a grass-roots training and educational organization and under the radar screen of most governments.
Question:Finally, has there been an increase in irrational behavior including threats and violence?
Fr. Euteneuer: The behaviors have always been irrational, but the new element seems to be an occult element that I believe we will see more in the future. “Death-scorts” seem to be more prone to curse and “pray” against pro-lifers probably due to so many of them being involved in New Age and witchcraft. Some of it is overt and some not. The abortion clinic owner in Rockford, IL periodically comes out of his place dressed in a devil outfit, for example. He also puts blasphemous images of Jesus and religion in the window of the clinic. One abortionist in FL some years ago shook blood from his abortion instruments on the pro-lifers after a morning of killing. We will see much more of this in time.
Women in Africa are being sterilized without their consent after being told the procedure is a routine treatment for Aids, a lawsuit will claim.
Forty HIV-positive women in Namibia have been made infertile against their will, according to the International Community of Women Living with HIV/Aids (ICW). The group is preparing to sue the Namibian government over at least 15 cases.
Campaigners also report coerced sterilization in the Democratic Republic of Congo, Zambia and South Africa, where according to one report a 14-year-old girl was told she could have an abortion only on condition that she agreed to sacrifice her reproductive rights.
The ICW has documented cases in Namibia where HIV-positive women minutes from giving birth were encouraged to sign consent forms to prevent them from having more children. Jennifer Gatsi-Mallet, its co-ordinator in the country, said: “They were in pain, they were told to sign, they didn’t know what it was. They thought that it was part of their HIV treatment. None of them knew what sterilization was, including those from urban areas, because it was never explained to them.
“After six weeks they went to the family planning centre for birth control pills and were told that it’s not necessary: they’re sterile. Most of them were very upset. When they went back to the hospital and asked, ‘Why did you do this to us?’ the answer was: ‘You’ve got HIV’.”
Gatsi-Mallet said that some women were now afraid to go to hospital in case they are sterilized, and infertile women were often rejected by their husbands and communities: “In African culture, if you are not able to have children, you are ostracised. It’s worse than having HIV.”
African women aged between 20 and 34 have a higher prevalence of HIV than any other social group; in South Africa one in three is infected.
On average an HIV-positive mother has a one in four risk of transmitting the virus to her child. With the latest antiretroviral drugs, the probability can be cut to less than one in 50. But such medical interventions are underfunded and inaccessible to millions of women across the continent.
The ICW accuses the Namibian government of encouraging state doctors to sterilize HIV-positive women as a means of preventing the spread of the virus. Its request to see the government’s official guidelines has been refused. It hopes to bring 15 or more cases to court later this year.
A media report from Namibia last week highlighted the plight of Hilma Nendongo. A few weeks after giving birth, she was asked by a nurse: “Oh, did they tell you that you had been sterilised?”
Nendongo, 30, who is HIV-positive, suddenly remembered that hospital staff had told her to sign some papers as she entered the operating room for a caesarean section.
“It was a very big shock,” she told Canada’s Globe and Mail newspaper. “I was very emotional … I wanted a sister for my three boys, and now I can’t have one.”
In South Africa, cases are being referred to the Women’s Legal Centre with a view to a possible action. Promise Mthembu, a researcher at Witwatersrand University, said coerced sterilisations were happening in “very large areas” of the country.
Many patients were forced to undergo the operation as the only means of gaining access to medical services, Mthembu told the Mail & Guardian newspaper.
For More on US Forced Sterilization, check out a new documentary called: Maafa21
Newly released Nixon tapes confirm the statements of racism played on the new documentary on Black Genocide: Maafa21.
This month, the Nixon Library released more Nixon Tapes. Although the quality of the recordings are poor, Nixon and an aide held a conversation recorded on January 23, 1973, discussing that day’s Supreme Court’s decisions in Roe v. Wade and Doe v. Bolton.
“I know that there are times when abortions are necessary. I know that,” Nixon tells an aide, then adding, “When you have a black and a white.”
The aide interrupts, “or for rape,” to which Nixon quickly responds, “or rape.”
Recently, a new documentary: Maafa21, was released which exposed high level plans within the US to use abortion as Black Genocide. The well documented film, ( a must see) exposed the early and extremely racist roots of the national largest abortion provider: Planned Parenthood and a host of eugenic connections they partnered with to reduce the Black Population.
As you watch Maafa21 the audience is stunned by admissions from Republican President Richard Nixon as to why he feels the nation will support abortion:
NIXON Tape #697-29
Nixon: “A majority of people in Colorado voted for abortion, I think a majority of people in Michigan are for abortion, I think in both cases, well, certainly in Michigan they will vote for it because they think that what’s going to be aborted generally are the little black bastards.”
NIXON TAPE 700-10
Nixon: ” … as I told you and we talked about it earlier, that a hell of a lot of people want to control all the Negro bastards.”
Unidentified Staff: “Yeah“
Nixon: “Isn’t that really true?“
Nixon: “You know what we are talking about – Population Control?”
Unidentified Staff: “Sure“
Nixon: “We’re talking really – and what John Rockefeller really realizes – look, the people in what we call the “our class” control their populations. Sometimes they’ll have a family of six, or seven, or eight, or nine, but it’s an exception.”
Unidentified Staff: Sure.
Nixon: “People who don’t control their families are people in- the people who shouldn’t have kids.”
President Nixon formed the Population Commission which was headed by eugenics members.
Maafa 21 will shock you. To see documentation showing the racism used in the abortion business and philosophy is hard to believe. To discover how one African American reporter was fired by Newsweek because he was going to expose the government’s role in Black Genocide was horrifying to say the least.
If you have not seen this documentary- you must get it and pass it to everyone who you know.
Stunning is the word that continues to come to mind after viewing the documentary: Maafa 21.
Zanzibar Slave Monument
To watch how slavery, colonization, and eugenics was used to “get rid” of the Africans in this nation brought me to tears.
Elaine Riddick
When you watch this well documented film, you will hear an interview with a Black woman who was sterilized against her will when she only 14, and the racist reason as Elaine Riddick puts it in the film was , “Because I was Black.”
President Richard Nixon
Included in Maafa21 are the racist words of former Republican President, Richard Nixon in saying that the reason people will vote for abortion is because the ones they think will be aborted are the “little black bastards.”
It is no surprise that “Code Words” are being used to describe African Americans so elitists can impose their racist stereotypes on them: Feebleminded, imbecile, idiot, criminal , lazy.Maafa 21 clearly details the oppressive language used to label African Americans.
What was very interesting was the discovery that, in Germany, Adolf Hitler sterilized Blacks as one of his first acts of German Eugenics. Given the small numbers of Afro-black citizens in Germany, it is a much overlooked tragedy, which needs to be taught. Hitler forced Afro-German citizens in the Rhineland to turn over their children for forced sterilization. This idea may have come from American Eugenicists and as you watch Maafa21 you will see first hand the documents and quotes of this American Racist Regime !
It was disgusting to see in Maafa21 how the New York Zoological Society allowed an African Pigmy, Ota Benga, to be placed in a monkey’s cage at the New York Zoo to drive home Charles Darwin’s theory of evolution which makes Africans the lowest on the evolutionary scale. This display was clearly an effort to reinforce the idea that Whites were SUPERIOR and Blacks were INFERIOR !
The Black Panthers and those involved in the early civil rights movement including Jesse Jackson, Dick Gregory, and Roy Innis warned blacks that eugenic comrades were out to get them. Maafa21 clearly documents this as well.To prove this was a shocking interview with a Florida Abortion Clinic owner, Joyce Tarnow who said that she believes in survival of the fittest. Included in the Maafa 21, is the fact that Tarnow also told a newspaper that she was against helping Haiti and we should let them wither on the vine. She also told them that she tries to “get as many people sterilized as are in my way.” Tarnow has retired as an abortion clinic owner and is currently the President of Floridians for a Sustainable Population, I wonder why?
You must purchase this persuasive and historic documentary and get multiple copies of Maafa21 to pass to every one you know. Put one in your library, school, church, and home. Maafa21 is a shocking expose of racism in America that is still happening to this very day !
I was a teen when I first hit the street to sidewalk counsel outside an abortion clinic. I saw men drag women into the clinic and parents coerce their daughters to kill their children. We wept, we prayed, we begged the women to spare the lives of their children. Still the slaughter of abortion continues and still I weep and cry out for their lives.
Now that I am older I ask myself – Why do I fight on? Have we seen the victory, is the war not getting worse? I am often on the edge of decision on whether to leave the battle because, victory, it seems, is never going to happen. But, then I am reminded of why I fight. I fight for those who cannot speak or fight for themselves- the kids: Born and unborn. I fight because it is right and because I was “born for such a time as this.” Perhaps these words will not inspire anyone to continue but they are words I echo in my own ear time and again.
When we look back on history we see many battles that looked grim. Our forefathers came here leaving all they knew to create a place of freedom for us. They formed this nation and faced their own kinsmen in War to fight for what they believed to be great. They vowed their “lives, their wealth, and their sacred honor” to defend liberty. Not knowing the outcome, they entered the battle, because the cause was justified and freedom was worth the sacrifice. They took the risk and saw a victory.
When this nation endured the darkness of slavery, few good men and women said “NO“. They were the persecuted voices in their day – shouting against the evils of slavery to a nation whose very economy was based on the stripes of the black man. They were voiceless in Congress, the media, and even in many of the churches. Though few in numbers, they converted whom they could: one convert at a time. How could they face down an industry that enslaved millions with a handful of “radicals” freeing only a few men and women from the bondage of slavery? The great abolitionist William Lloyd Garrison wrote this in The Liberator, an abolitionist newspaper he created because he had been censored from the regular press. January 1, 1831:
“I am aware, that many object to the severity of my language; but is there not cause for severity? I will be as harsh as truth, and as uncompromising as justice. On this subject, I do not wish to think, or speak, or write, with moderation. No! no! Tell a man whose house is on fire, to give a moderate alarm; tell him to moderately rescue his wife from the hand of the ravisher; tell the mother to gradually extricate her babe from the fire into which it has fallen; — but urge me not to use moderation in a cause like the present. I am in earnest — I will not equivocate — I will not excuse — I will not retreat a single inch — AND I WILL BE HEARD.”
Though victory seemed grim, they fought on, unsure of the results: freedom was worth the risk and victory finally came.
Thomas J “Stonewall” Jackson is one of the most famous American Generals of all time. He got his fame by fighting for the South in the American Civil War; he was very religious and thought to be a bit odd at times by his men. Jackson was heard telling his men, “My religious belief teaches me to feel as safe in battle as in bed. God has fixed the time for my death. I do not concern myself about that, but to always be ready, no matter when it may overtake me.” With that in mind, General Jackson faced the battle with faith in God, sworn to his duty he was assured that God held his days in His able hands. “Look at Jackson standing there like a stone wall,” was the sentence that gave birth to his historic nickname.
As the Revolutionary War, Slavery, and the Civil War among others teach us, there have been dark times in American History before. The Bible itself is full of inspirational stories where the righteous was outnumbered and the battle looked bleak. For Example: David watched as the Israeli army backed off as Goliath mocked the Living God. Outraged that one man could cause such fear, David chose to march on trusting that His God was larger and greater than any earthly giant. David took a risk and stepped onto the battlefield alone but God showed up along side of him and the giant was silenced.
Thinking he was the only prophet of the Most High left, Elijah faced down 450 prophets of Baal , “You have abandoned the LORD’s commands and have followed the Baals. ” Elijah told Ahab, “Now summon the people from all over Israel to meet me on Mount Carmel. And bring the four hundred and fifty prophets of Baal and the four hundred prophets of Asherah, who eat at Jezebel’s table.” 1 Kings 18
Then Elijah said to them, “I am the only one of the LORD’s prophets left, but Baal has four hundred and fifty prophets. Get two bulls for us. Let them choose one for themselves, and let them cut it into pieces and put it on the wood but not set fire to it. I will prepare the other bull and put it on the wood but not set fire to it. Then you call on the name of your god, and I will call on the name of the LORD. The god who answers by fire—he is God.“
Elijah – took a risk and GOD SHOWED UP! He put the false god’s of Baal to shame.
Esther was a young beautiful woman who was launched into the King’s chamber as Queen when he saw her beauty. But then her uncle sent word to her that the King had been tricked into signing a decree to massacre all of “her people, the Jews.” He spoke these words to her, “For if you remain silent at this time, relief and deliverance will arise for the Jews from another place and you and your father’s house will perish. And who knows whether you have not attained royalty for such a time as this?” (Esther 4:14)
Esther took a risk and went into see her King. She could have died in that attempt, but she believed the words of her Uncle that she had been sent to that position “for such a time as this.” She took a risk, and God saved her people.
In a little town a young woman was greeted by an angel, “Mary – you are great among women.” Told by the angel that she would bear a son, Mary trembled because she knew the consequences to pregnancy outside of marriage. Choosing instead to believe the words of God through His messenger, Mary replied, “Behold, the bondslave of the Lord; may it be done to me according to your word.” (Luke 1:38) Mary accepted that risk and the Lord literally showed up!
As we look out among this nation, many of us are battle torn and worn out. We are witnessing perhaps the death of America’s Freedom and Greatness. The prospect of that outcome has caused many to give-up, many to loose hope. But, we are not a people who should be motivated by what we “see” with earthly eyes. We are a people of Hope and a people who serve a Great God. Perhaps we have been spoiled by a sense of “freedom” few of us have ever been called upon to “defend”. Perhaps some of us have sat on the sidelines while others fought for us. Whatever the cause, we are where we are, and nothing happens outside of God’s vision. If America is seeing her last great days, so be it. I, for one, intend to stay in this battle to the end. I intend to fight on, not because victory has been promised. Precisely the opposite. I fight because it is right. I stand because I believe in truth and in God’s Word. I speak and defend the innocent because God commands me to. I am a patriotic American, but my last and final hope is not of this world, but of that world to come. If I can make a difference here on earth, great. But that is not my goal – it is to please and honor my King. I fight on, I take the risk, and I trust that if God is for me “Who can be against me?”
For I am convinced that “neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord.” (Romans 8:38-39)
Please…do not quit, for who knows that you were born “FOR SUCH A TIME AS THIS.” Speak for what is right, no matter who listens. Stand for what is right, no matter the consequences. Be a light in a dark and dying world and look to our one and only hope: The Lord Jesus Christ !
As we approach another birthday of this once great nation, let us take to our knees and bless America, stand in the gap for her, and repent for this land we love so dearly. “If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land.” 11Chronicle 7:14
There is no doubt that racism still exits in the US. But while some people see racism behind every corner a real racist agenda is being waged against African Americans right under their noses.
If you doubt what I am saying- watch the film: Maafa21
Maafa 21 exposes high level plans within the US Government to exterminate Black People. This plan dates back to the 1800 just after slavery ended and continues to this day !
Get the film – get several copies before the racist elitists shut this down !

Most people think eugenics is something that happened in the past with Hitler. But the US is loaded with Eugenic elitists who want to dictate to the rest of us who should be allowed to procreate. After viewing a dynamic film on this topic: Maafa21, I recently came across some interesting posts online that prove this point:
From The Examiner in an article entitled: What IF abortion were outlawed in Alabama tomorrow?
Author Whitney Bell, quotes known eugenic supporter and Planned Parenthood award winner: Garrett Hardin as stating, “Society does not need more children; but it does need more loved children. Quite literally, we cannot afford unloved children – but we pay heavily for them every day. There should not be the slightest communal concern when a woman elects to destroy the life of her thousandth-of-an-ounce embryo. But all society should rise up in alarm when it hears that a baby that is not wanted is about to be born.“
Emphasizing the fact that the majority of abortions are performed on BLACK WOMEN Bell makes this alarming prediction, “My prediction is that a high percentage of the children who would’ve been aborted would be unwanted and wind up in the already overcrowded foster care system, where a lot of them would grow up to be criminals. Come on, tell me I’m wrong.”
CRIMINALS:??? Come On ! In fact, that was a ‘code word” used by Margaret Sanger and her Eugenics Buddies. “Idiots, Criminals, Inferior, Weeds“. An elitist point of view states that they are the only ones who should have ANY rights to procreate and they (elitists) should dictate to the rest of how how many kids we can have.
In the documentary: Maafa21 they show proof that the eugenics leadership in this nation as late as the 60’s were developing a plot to lace our food and water supplies with sterilization drugs so they could control population. Their target: URBAN NEIGHBORHOODS…surprised?
In another outrageous post, “Should everyone be able to have a child?” , responders said this:
Lord no. People should be required to be licensed before they breed. There simply are so many stupid, mentally ill people that have absolutely no business passing on their genes simply because they have the selfish desire to reproduce.
Steve: You echoed my thoughts on this item totally, that certain segments of society should not be able to have children…
~Dennis Junior~
…you imply the concept of eugenics is all bad. Yes Hitler was a very intelligent nut case with a twisted goal using enforced eugenics. But the real world purpose of eugenics is all good.
Sorry Tom – should have made myself clear – I was meaning eugenics in the the that Hitler used it to wipe out those he thought not worthy of life.
I would want people to be forced to take the birth control shot in the US before people are allowed to pick up their welfare check. Also, if you’re on probation, I feel you should need to show up for the shot. Basically, people already in trouble in the US shouldn’t be allowed to have kids until they “fix” themslves.
-Anthony, LA, CA
Anthony, I agree with you. The injection is good idea–wish it could be put into legislation!
Procreation may be a “basic human function” but it shouldn’t be a right…Parental licensing, good idea! …
As far as SHOULD we limit our breeding, I say by all means YES. Here are some possible rules:
1) 3 max per lifetime, any over that are either taxed or are at least non-deductible.
2) Pay folks to be sterilized (bonuses for sterilizations performed before the 3 child threshold and any congenital diseases avoided).
3) Sales of your “Child Permit Credits” would be non-taxible. (Double score by selling credits AND getting sterilized!)
Women, and even men, should be given a standardized test, or as my fellow blogger said, a license to have children.
If you look at the global population problem, no one should be having any children, at least for a decade. Additionally, affluent countries where litters of children are encouraged, should limit the number of children per person and those who carry a high risk of complicated pregnancy should be discouraged. However, I will not go as far to say that rights to have children should be controlled by the gov’t, any more than the right to a safe abortion should be.
My I suggest two reasonably fair options.
The first could be a nanny society where only those suitable can have kids but everyone including the less productive members are looked after…The real problem is that taxpayers are currently forced to pay the child benefit for those unsuitable parents.
I have to say I am NOT surprised by these comments. The Eugenics Societies and the Margaret Sanger/ Planned Parenthood types have educated their dupes well on this issue. Maafa21 documents how the American Eugenic Society paid ministers to preach EUGENIC SERMONS in churches and many of them did this. SHOCKING!
Maafa21 also documents how so-called “Pro-Choice” Planned Parenthood founder, Margaret Sanger, called for parents to have a QUOTE: LICENSE TO BREED. She wanted all would be parents to go before her eugenic boards to request a “PERMIT TO BREED“. So much for Choice , huh?
Sanger also called for those who were poor and what she considered to be “morons‘ , etc to be shipped to colonies where they would live in “Farms and Open Spaces” dedicated to brainwashing these so-called “inferior types” into having what Sanger called, “Better moral conduct”. MORE SHOCKING!
These eugenic attitudes come from those who promote “CHOICE” . They bury their racism under words like “planning” and “Choice” and they get away with that kind of deceptive language because the elitists know that Planned Parenthood is accomplishing what EUGENICS alone could not. They have eliminated over 35% of the African American community. Sanger’s “NEGRO PROJECT” laid out the plan that we still see in effect through Planned Parenthood today!
Get the documentary MAAFA21, watch it and re-read the ignorant quotes I posted above, and you will see that what Maafa 21 says about Eugenics is still happening in America.
If you think that EUGENICS and RACISM are history – THINK AGAIN: Watch this: Maafa21.
A new pro-life group in Iowa is involved in a squabble with the Internal Revenue Service over a request for tax-exempt status.
After applying for tax-exempt status and waiting a number of months for a response, the Coalition for Life of Iowa received a letter with very concerning questions from the IRS. Tom Brejcha of the Thomas More Society was shocked when he read the letter.
“‘Please explain how your prayer meetings outside Planned Parenthood are considered educational. Please explain in detail the activities at these prayer meetings,’ [it read],” he notes. “And if that wasn’t enough, get a load of this: ‘Please explain the percentage of your time that the organization spends on prayer groups as compared with other activities.’”
In a Thomas More press release, the IRS’s questions are described as “prejudicial” and labeled as harassment of the Coalition’s rights to prayer and legal protests. In the letter, the IRS claimed they would grant the organization tax-exempt status if its members stopped picketing and protesting outside of Planned Parenthood.
The Thomas More Society believes the IRS could be violating the First Amendment for denying tax-exempt status based solely on religious beliefs. Brejcha is urging the IRS to promptly comply with the Coalition’s requests.
“‘Please explain in detail the signs that are being held up outside Planned Parenthood and explain how they are educational,’” Brejcha quotes another question from the IRS.
Brejcha says the IRS never explained why any of their questions were relevant in relation to the Coalition’s request. Thomas More Society attorneys are handling the response and will take appropriate action if the IRS pursues its current course.
After viewing an extremely well documented film on eugenics, Maafa21, and how it is still existing today, I was stunned to read this quote by Supreme Court Justice, Ruth Bader Ginsburg. Justice Ginsburg said: “I Thought Roe Would Help Eradicate Unwanted Population”
In an interview with the New York Times, the judge said that Medicaid should cover abortions, and that she had originally expected that Roe v. Wade would facilitate such coverage in order to control the population of groups “that we don’t want to have too many of.”
The statement was made in the context of a discussion about the fact that abortions are not covered by Medicaid, and therefore are less available to poor women. “Reproductive choice has to be straightened out,” said Ginsburg, lamenting the fact that only women “of means” can easily access abortion.
“Frankly I had thought that at the time Roe was decided, there was concern about population growth and particularly growth in populations that we don’t want to have too many of,” Ginsburg told Emily Bazelon of the New York Times.
“So that Roe was going to be then set up for Medicaid funding for abortion. Which some people felt would risk coercing women into having abortions when they didn’t really want them. But when the court decided McRae, the case came out the other way. And then I realized that my perception of it had been altogether wrong.”
Justice Ginsburg’s remarks appear to align her expectations for abortion with those of Planned Parenthood founder Margaret Sanger, and other prominent members of the 20th century’s eugenics movement. Sanger and her eugenicist peers advocated forced sterilization and the use of contraception, sterilization, and abortion to reduce the numbers of poor, black, immigrant and disabled population.
Sanger was the founder of Planned Parenthood and many of their board members also made outrageous statements to support Sanger’s eugenic views.
Sanger and Planned Parenthood were and have been supported by elitist in the government and in business to get the eugenic goals implemented Planned Parenthood’s former president, Faye Wattelton even admitted on CNN that they receive funds from people who want to see Blacks reduced in population in this nation.
Ginsburg’s words echo the American Eugenics Society of which Planned Parenthood founder and many of their board were members. She also echos the words of another Supreme Court Justice: Oliver Wendell Holmes.
Writing for the majority in the Supreme Court’s affirmative decision of this landmark case, Buck vs. Bell Oliver Wendell Holmes Jr. described Charlottesville native Carrie Buck as the “probable potential parent of socially inadequate offspring, likewise afflicted” stating that “her welfare and that of society will be promoted by her sterilization.”
In Upholding FORCED STERILIZATION , Justice Holmes wrote:
“It is better for all the world, if instead of waiting to execute degenerate offspring for crime or to let them starve for their imbecility, society can prevent those who are manifestly unfit from continuing their kind…
Three generations of imbeciles are enough.”
[1.1] Supreme Court Justice Oliver Wendell Holmes, Jr. in Buck v. Bell
Republican President, Richard Nixon later echoed the same eugenic beliefs when he told members of his staff that the reason people will support abortion is because they know the ones being aborted are those “little black bastards.”
Given the fact that abortion kills 5 times more African American than white babies, perhaps eugenics has reached it’s goals, and Ginsburg is unhappy with the stats above. What other conclusion can we draw?
FOR MORE ELITIST ATTITUDES ON THIS TOPIC WATCH MAAFA21. See a short clip here:
This morning I spent some time in prayer for America – it was the type of prayer that was so incredibly urgent that I sobbed and cried out to our Lord for His mercy on this nation I deeply love.
Many changes are happening in our country and many more are coming down quickly. Huge changes are on the brink of decision in Washington and it appears there is nothing we can do about it unless the Lord were to intervene. Well…when all seems hopeless, when it seems as though there is nothing we can do, let me tell you – that is the perfect time to cry out to a God who is full of mercy.
Let us not forget that: when the Israelites left Egypt, Pharaoh changed his mind and began to pursue them. They ran and ran until their backs were against a wall- or a Red Sea. But God in His mercy opened up that Sea. He did the miraculous.
When the Disciples were in the boat with Jesus and the storm began to blow – the winds picked up and they feared for their very lives, they finally turned and WOKE JESUS UP.
“H-E-L-P”, they cried.
Our Lord rebuked those winds and stopped the raging seas.
Many times in scripture we see Moses or Daniel and others bargaining ( for lack of a better word) with the Lord ” Do not destroy this people” , And for the sake of the righteous one doing the pleading the Lord was moved.
Exodus 32: 9-14 And the LORD said unto Moses, I have seen this people, and, behold, it is a stiffnecked people: Now therefore let me alone, that my wrath may wax hot against them, and that I may consume them: and I will make of thee a great nation. And Moses besought the LORD his God, and said, LORD, why doth thy wrath wax hot against thy people, which thou hast brought forth out of the land of Egypt with great power, and with a mighty hand? Wherefore should the Egyptians speak, and say, For mischief did he bring them out, to slay them in the mountains, and to consume them from the face of the earth? Turn from thy fierce wrath, and repent of this evil against thy people. Remember Abraham, Isaac, and Israel, thy servants, to whom thou swarest by thine own self, and saidst unto them, I will multiply your seed as the stars of heaven, and all this land that I have spoken of will I give unto your seed, and they shall inherit it for ever. And the LORD repented of the evil which he thought to do unto his people.
Daniel 9 Daniel’s Prayer , In the first year of Darius son of Ahasuerus (a Mede by descent), who was made ruler over the Babylonian kingdom- in the first year of his reign, I, Daniel, understood from the Scriptures, according to the word of the LORD given to Jeremiah the prophet, that the desolation of Jerusalem would last seventy years. So I turned to the Lord God and pleaded with him in prayer and petition, in fasting, and in sackcloth and ashes.
I prayed to the LORD my God and confessed:
“O Lord, the great and awesome God, who keeps his covenant of love with all who love him and obey his commands, we have sinned and done wrong. We have been wicked and have rebelled; we have turned away from your commands and laws. We have not listened to your servants the prophets, who spoke in your name to our kings, our princes and our fathers, and to all the people of the land. “Lord, you are righteous, but this day we are covered with shame—the men of Judah and people of Jerusalem and all Israel, both near and far, in all the countries where you have scattered us because of our unfaithfulness to you. O LORD, we and our kings, our princes and our fathers are covered with shame because we have sinned against you. The Lord our God is merciful and forgiving, even though we have rebelled against him; we have not obeyed the LORD our God or kept the laws he gave us through his servants the prophets. All Israel has transgressed your law and turned away, refusing to obey you. Therefore the curses and sworn judgments written in the Law of Moses, the servant of God, have been poured out on us, because we have sinned against you. You have fulfilled the words spoken against us and against our rulers by bringing upon us great disaster. Under the whole heaven nothing has ever been done like what has been done to Jerusalem. Just as it is written in the Law of Moses, all this disaster has come upon us, yet we have not sought the favor of the LORD our God by turning from our sins and giving attention to your truth. The LORD did not hesitate to bring the disaster upon us, for the LORD our God is righteous in everything he does; yet we have not obeyed him. “Now, O Lord our God, who brought your people out of Egypt with a mighty hand and who made for yourself a name that endures to this day, we have sinned, we have done wrong. O Lord, in keeping with all your righteous acts, turn away your anger and your wrath from Jerusalem, your city, your holy hill. Our sins and the iniquities of our fathers have made Jerusalem and your people an object of scorn to all those around us. Now, our God, hear the prayers and petitions of your servant. For your sake, O Lord, look with favor on your desolate sanctuary. Give ear, O God, and hear; open your eyes and see the desolation of the city that bears your Name. We do not make requests of you because we are righteous, but because of your great mercy. O Lord, listen! O Lord, forgive! O Lord, hear and act! For your sake, O my God, do not delay, because your city and your people bear your Name.”
When Esther was Queen, and the Jews were threatened, she went into an earthly king – fearing her life- she threw herself at his mercy and petitioned him on behalf of herself and her people. An earthly King who loved His queen was moved with compassion and fought to save Esther and her people. Listen to me, if an earthly king can be moved to change his mind – to overthrow a decree- than how much more would our Heavenly King of all Kings and more merciful than imaginable be moved if we but beseech Him?
I do not know the outcome of all these changes in our land and I do not know God’s perfect will for our nation. We, as a nation, have brought this upon ourselves to a certain extent. But there is one thing I am certain – I serve a merciful and forgiving Father. I refuse to look only at the magnitude of the problem, but I choose to see the vastness and greatness of our Lord. Scripture tells us that if we, His people, will come to Him and beseech Him for our nation, repenting for the sin of this nation, that He will hear us from Heaven forgive our sin and heal our land.
Get that? From Heaven – He will HEAR US ! I am so moved by that – my Lord- awesome God- will HEAR US !
Please Please Please – if you feel discouraged, like quitting, like turning your head away and simply accepting the direction things are heading… If you feel like there is no possibility of changing the course of America – please I beg you – turn to the Lord. Like never before, beseech the Lord for His mercy over this land. I am not so proud that I will not cry out and accept responsibility for my own sin that may have led to the direction this nation is taking. I will fall at His feet and I will humble myself before His mighty hand and I will declare that He is the Lord and He holds the hand of the King in His hand. “The king’s heart is in the hand of the LORD, as the rivers of water: he turneth it whithersoever he will.” ( Proverbs 21:1)
With that, I know that after I have laid everything at His feet – all my concerns, I can trust Him for the final outcome. Not My outcome but the one that furthers His Kingdom and I will accept His will in every situation. But, I will ask and keep asking – seek and keep seeking – knock and keep knocking until that decision is made.
“The best way to hate a nigger is to hate him before he is born“, this is a quote by those who agree with the recent comment by Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg. It is time to be educated and see the truth: Maafa21 will expose this racist agenda once and for all.
Congressman Jeff Fortenberry on Eugenics and Margaret Sanger
Now Listen to the racist quotes just released on a new film, Maafa21, that explains just the “populations” that Ginsburg and her eugenic friends do not want too many of:
As a left-leaning Rutgers law professor in the early 1970s, Ruth Bader Ginsburg thought that the Roe v. Wade abortion decision was the product of “concern about population growth and particularly growth in populations we don’t want too many of,” she recalled in a recent New York Times Magazine interview.
Her expectation was that the purported right to abortion created in Roe “was going to be then set up for Medicaid funding for abortion. Which some people felt would risk coercing women into having abortions when they didn’t really want them.”
Ginsburg doesn’t specify which parts of the human population “we” should cull, or how the creation of an abortion “right” would necessarily be a prelude to creation of a system in which abortion would be required in some circumstances. She told the Times that the question was effectively rendered moot by the Supreme Court’s Harris v. McRae decision, which upheld a ban on Medicaid funding of abortion. That decision, handed down in 1980, indicated that her “perception” of the issue “had been altogether wrong,” Ginsburg concludes.
But this means that there was an interval of roughly seven years during which Ginsburg, a well-informed and influential academic, believed that America was creating a eugenicist system in which abortion would help reduce “undesirable” populations – however those populations would be defined. This was what Roe had wrought, Ginsburg believed for several years, and if she ever experienced misgivings about it, she managed to keep them private.
Another question worth examining is this: Where did Ginsburg – a rising star in academe long before being tapped to fill the Rosa Klebb seat on the Supreme Court – get the impression that American policy-making elites were discussing the use of welfare subsidies to bring about the attrition of “undesirable” populations?
If I may be permitted a modest venture in speculation, I’d suggest that Ginsburg, sometime in the 1960s or 1970s, became at least superficially acquainted with the writings of John Holdren or of like-minded people in the most militant branch of the population control movement.
In 1977, Mr. Holdren was a young academic who helped anti-natalist guru Paul Ehrlich and his wife Anne write an arrestingly horrible book entitled Ecoscience: Population, Resources, Environment. Today, Holdren is Barack Obama’s “Science Czar,” in which capacity he counsels the president regarding the role of science in public policy. This relationship has a certain Strangelovian undercurrent, given Holdren’s enthusiasm for eugenicist and totalitarian methods of population “management.”
In a passage that reads eerily like the direct counterpoint to Ginsburg’s musings about the reduction of undesirable populations, Holdren and the Ehrlichs wrote:
“If some individuals contribute to general social deterioration by overproducing children, and if the need is compelling, they can be required by law to exercise reproductive responsibility – just as they can be required to exercise responsibility in their resource-consumption patterns….“
The book offers similarly casual endorsements of “involuntary” and “coercive” fertility control,” including the mandatory implantation of a Norplant-style capsule that “might be removable, with official permission, for a limited number of births.”
The authors endorse the creation of “a Planetary regime” in charge of regulating all human economic activity and interactions with the environment and the “power to enforce the agreed limits” on human population growth through whatever means might be necessary – including compelled abortion, involuntary individual sterilization, or even mass involuntary sterilization through the infiltration of sterilizing agents into public water supplies.
That last deranged suggestion appears in several of Paul Ehrlich’s other books, including his (if you will excuse the expression) seminal 1967 alarmist tract The Population Bomb.
As someone who shared a full authorial credit on the book, Holdren bears full responsibility for the content of Ecoscience. His militantly anti-natalist views are easily as repulsive as anything promoted by white supremacist groups, albeit all the more dangerous for being more inclusive in their misanthropy. His writings would have been uncovered in the routine vetting process following his nomination, but they never came up during his confirmation hearing.
What is genuinely unsettling, however, is this: The totalitarian prescriptions offered in Ecoscience were squarely in the mainstream of the Stygian sewer called the population control movement.
In 1967, sociologist, demographer, and population control heavyweight Kingsley Davis published an essay in Science magazine observing that “the social structure and economy must be changed before a deliberate reduction in the birthrate can be achieved” in the West. He urged governments to subsidize voluntary abortion and sterilization and restructure their tax systems to discourage both marriage and childbirth.
Davis’s recommendations apparently inspired Frederick Jaffe, Vice President of Planned Parenthood, when he composed a 1969 memorandum intended for use as a template for anti-natalist efforts.
Jaffe’s memorandum, a version of which was published in the October 1970 issue of Family Planning Perspectives, organized recommended social policies under four headings: “Social Constraints,” “Economic Deterrents/Incentives,” “Social Controls,” and “Housing Policies.”
Like Paul Ehrlich, Jaffe suggested the placement of “fertility control agents in [the] water supply“; this recommendation was filed, oddly enough, under “Social Constraints.” “Social Controls,” on the other hand, included such measures as “compulsory abortion of all out-of-wedlock pregnancies,” “compulsory sterilization of all who have two children except for a few who would be allowed three,” and the issuance of “stock certificate-type permits for children.” (Nearly every radical population control system is built around the idea of a government-issued “permit” or “license” to have children.)
These totalitarian measures were widely and unabashedly promoted in the literature of the population control movement at precisely the time that the Roe decision was (if, once again, you’ll excuse the expression) gestating in the court system.
“How can we reduce reproduction?” wrote Garrett Hardin in a 1970 Science magazine article entitled “Parenthood: Right or Privilege?” “Persuasion must be tried first…. Mild coercion may soon be accepted – for example, tax rewards for reproductive non-proliferation. But in the long run, a purely voluntary system selects for its own failure: noncooperators out-breed cooperators. So what restraints shall we employ? A policeman under every bed? Jail sentences? Compulsory abortion? Infanticide?… Memories of Nazi Germany rise and obscure our vision.”
Oh, those dreadful Nazis: If only they hadn’t given totalitarian eugenics such a bad name….
Hardin was one of many anti-natalist luminaries – the list included Kingsley Davis, Margaret Mead, Paul Ehrlich, and sundry Planned Parenthood leaders – who endorsed the 1971 manifesto The Case for Compulsory Birth Control by Edgar R. Chasteen. That book offered one-stop shopping for policy-makers seeking draconian population management methods.
Chasteen was emphatic on two points: First, ruling elites had to indoctrinate the public into accepting the idea that “parenthood [is] a privilege extended by society, rather than a right“; and second, that in the interests of public relations, supporters of that totalitarian perspective needed to settle on “a name other than compulsory birth control.”
Essentially the same program was endorsed by Dr. Norman Myers, an adviser to the World Bank and various UN agencies, in his peculiar 1990 volume The Gaia Atlas of Future Worlds.
“Government population-control policies using strong economic and social incentives have been effective in China and Singapore,” wrote Myers, who commended China in particular for using “strong social pressure” to control its population. Myers didn’t to dwell on the fact that the Chinese government employs severe punishments – prison time, destruction of homes, retaliation against family members and co-workers – for women who have “unauthorized” children.
Myers suggested a variation on the same concept behind the “cap-and-trade” carbon credit system employing government-issued birth permits. Under his plan, couples would “be issued with a warrant entitling them to have a single child…. This warrant might even carry commercial value, allowing individuals to decide not to have children at all and to sell their entitlements to others wanting larger families.“
Arguably the most astonishing variant on this approach was proposed in 1994, just prior to the UN’s International Conference on Population and Development in Cairo, Egypt.
In a book entitled Too Many People, Sir Roy Calne, a noted British physician, proposed a universal minimum childbearing age of 25, and a strict two-child quota. Those seeking the government-dispensed “privilege” of having children would have to pass a state-mandated parenting class and receive the appropriate “reproduction license.” Those who violate those restrictions would lose their children and face Chinese-style economic sanctions and criminal punishments.
Calne also suggested the development of an engineered sterility pathogen – he called it the “O virus” – that could be administered to women world-wide as a vaccine.
These malignant proposals are not just flatulent thought-bubbles blown in languid speculation by fringe eccentrics in the academic realm: With the exception – as far as we know – of mass involuntary sterilization through covert chemical or biological warfare, every method of coercive population control described above has been implemented somewhere with the material aid of the United Nations and its affiliates, and the practical support of organizations such as Planned Parenthood and Marie Stopes International.
Every argument on behalf of state-imposed population control rejects the concept of individual self-ownership and assumes that human lives – individually and in the aggregate – are a resource to be managed by society’s supervisors on behalf of the “common good.” And, as Ruth Bader Ginsburg correctly intuited in 1973, the Roe vs. Wade decision was a triumph, albeit an incomplete one, for the cause of eugenicist population control.
Although it was swaddled in the language of individual empowerment, the Roe decision was a dramatic victory for collectivism: It enshrined, in what our rulers are pleased to call the “law,” the assumption that a human individual is a “person” only when that status is conferred by the government.
While Harry Blackmun’s opinion in Roe pointedly avoided the question of when “personhood” begins, it emphatically made it clear that, for purposes of “law,” that the term doesn’t apply to any human individual in his or her pre-natal stage of development. This, not the liberty to procure an abortion, is the real gravamen, or central legal finding, in the Roe decision: It put the government in charge of defining who is, and isn’t a person.
As judges like to say, the matter of reducing “undesirable” populations is reaching “ripeness” now. Barack Obama’s administration is eagerly expanding the government-dependent population and preparing to impose centralized “universal” health care on our society. And while all of this is going on, John Holdren, unabashed advocate of totalitarian population control, is in a position to whisper unthinkable thoughts into Obama’s ear.

As debate continues about de facto federal funding for abortion in proposed health care legislation, U.S. Congressman Mike Pence (R-IN) has filed an amendment which would deny federal funding to Planned Parenthood through Title X Family Planning.
A backgrounder from Rep. Pence’s office says the amendment would withhold annual appropriations of Health and Human Services’ Family Planning funds from Planned Parenthood.
In Wednesday remarks on the floor of the House of Representatives, Rep. Pence said “The time has come to deny any and all federal funding to Planned Parenthood of America. The largest abortion provider in America should not also be the largest recipient of federal funds under Title X.”
Expressing confidence his proposed amendment will be “widely supported,” he asked the House Rules Committee to place it in the voting order.
Rep. Pence said that Planned Parenthood performed more than 305,000 abortions last year and received nearly $350 million of federal taxpayer money from 2007 to 2008.
He also cited state investigations into cases of Planned Parenthood staffers apparently encouraging underage girls to lie about their ages to avoid mandatory state reporting laws on statutory rape.
Title X money given to organizations that provide both abortions and family planning services, Pence pointed out, can be used to offset operational costs and free up money to “promote and provide abortions.”
“Again I say, the time has come to deny any and all federal funding to Planned Parenthood of America. The largest abortion provider in America should not also be the largest recipient of federal funds under Title X. It’s time to pass the Pence Amendment to keep taxpayer money out of the hands of Planned Parenthood.”

It’s the movie too explosive for Hollywood to make. It’s about a plan that began 150 years ago to exterminate a whole race of people and how that plan is still being carried out today.
It’s about elitism, economic control and terrifying racial agendas. It’s about things the media won’t tell you and
things politicians don’t want you to know. And for $20, it can be yours on DVD.
MAAFA 21 is a very carefully reasoned, well-produced exposé of the abortion industry, racism and eugenics. It proves through innumerable sources that many founders of Planned Parenthood and other parts of the abortion movement were interested in killing off the black race in America and elsewhere.
Review:
MAAFA 21 is a very carefully reasoned, well-produced exposé of the abortion industry, racism and eugenics.
Subtitled “Black Genocide in the 21st Century,” this video traces the abortion industry back through its eugenics roots. It proves through innumerable sources that the founders of Planned Parenthood and other parts of the abortion movement were interested in killing off the black race in America and elsewhere. The movie exposes some of the most powerful leaders of the socialist and humanist movements of the 20th Century as some of the worst racists, on the same level as Adolf Hitler but much more clever. The argument is presented so well here that it is irrefutable. The taped excerpt of President Nixon saying “kill the black b*st*rds” is horrifying. The filmmakers behind this video calculate that abortion has reduced the black population in the United States by about 25%!
Although MAAFA 21 could be condensed, the filmmakers are clearly interested in getting all the evidence on the table. If this movie gets wide circulation among the African American community, it should bring an end to Planned Parenthood and the abortion industry.
The only problem with this documentary is that there are several references that sound like class warfare. These are balanced by a good Christian sermon at the end, but it would have been better if it had a coherent Judeo-Christian worldview toward the topic without the accusations of elitism.
That said, clearly the people perpetrating this abortion genocide are elitist in their own minds, and they need to be called to account. MAAFA 21 is must viewing for every adult in the world whatever their race!
White House Draws Fire for Requesting ‘Fishy’ Information From Supporters on Health Reform
The White House is under fire for a blog post asking supporters to send “fishy”information received through rumors, chain e-mails and casual conversations to a White House e-mail address, flag@whitehouse.gov.
You can go here and read the White House Request. The site states, “There is a lot of disinformation about health insurance reform out there, spanning from control of personal finances to end of life care. These rumors often travel just below the surface via chain emails or through casual conversation. Since we can’t keep track of all of them here at the White House, we’re asking for your help. If you get an email or see something on the web about health insurance reform that seems fishy, send it to flag@whitehouse.gov.“
African American Leaders call for Reparations to Erase Past Evils of Slavery and Race Based Genocide
Entertainment Desk
July 15, 2009
In a new film, MAAFA21 (maafa21.com) by Mark Crutcher, several African American leaders calling for reparations appear to discuss the current situation of Black genocide, linking today´s existing patterns of race selection and population control to the days of slavery in America. The film highlights modern day funders of eugenics, linking them to companies that financed efforts to reduce or eliminate the Negro population at the time slavery was ending in America.
Today, many Black leaders are adding their voices to their predecessors who decried abortion, forced sterilization, and mandated birth control in the late sixties and early seventies. These same leaders are calling on population control magnates to use their billions to end eugenics and genocidal practices that are being promoted globally today in the 21st century.
“Reparations should start with organizations like the Rockefeller Foundation, Proctor and Gamble, Planned Parenthood, The Religious Coalition for Reproductive Choice, and all of the entities that are capitalizing on genocide and eugenics in the world today. This includes those who are investing billions in population control programs. Even those in high ranking positions in government should not be exempt, including U.S. Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg who recently made a revealing admission in favor of cleansing America of unwanted populations by aborting them,” said spokespersons for a growing number of voices in favor of reparations.
“Yes, we´re talking about dollars and cents, but we are also talking about healing,” say spokespersons Pastor Stephen Broden of Dallas, Texas, Dr. Johnny Hunter, National Director of LEARN, and Pastor Luke Robinson of Frederick, MD.
“Who needs to write the check? Those who fund the genocide – not the taxpayers! Not long ago, many of us got rebate checks in the mail, followed by the promises of a stimulus package. We can all see how little good that did for the economy,” say the leaders.
“Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. once spoke of a check marked insufficient funds,” says his niece, Dr. Alveda King. “America is once again facing spiritual and moral bankruptcy, even in the face of the looming economic crisis.”
MAAFA21 reveals and evaluates the effects of eugenics and genocide on Black American families and communities, uncovering and unveiling those forces that drive the destruction of targeted ethnic groups.
Herein, the concept of reparations is important and timely. It´s important, obviously, because of the grave evil that slavery was and that genocide is today. Just as slavery led to a succession of more evils, today genocide leads to the decimation of the African American community. Fully one-fourth of the black population of the United States has gone missing because genocide takes their lives before they can enjoy liberty or pursue happiness. It is time to restore the personhood of all people, regardless of skin color or gestational age. This means that we have to repent for all forms of racism, including skin color and gestational age. Slavery and womb lynching have a lot in common. They are destroyers of life and dignity.
In America, slavery and racism were followed by Jim Crow laws, segregation, and lynching. Subsequent solutions such as the crippling welfare system, forced sterilization, mandated birth control methods and abortions are bandages on wounds that still need to be healed.
We must also remember that the linchpin of slavery is the emasculation of the Black man. By taking away his God ordained headship of marriage and family, a serious blow is struck to human society as a whole. Our men must be restored!
We, the undersigned Black pastors and leaders take up the mantle to pray for and guide our communities in the process of breaking the bonds of oppression, even as our forefathers did before us.
Oppression is a double-edged sword, enslaving the victim while binding the oppressor. In order to maintain the system from which he benefits materially, the oppressor has to believe and bankroll a lie. Then, to maintain his belief that he is somehow inherently superior, he has to fabricate more and more lies every time the truth of what he´s doing sears his conscience. The oppressed die physically, the oppressors die spiritually.
We must repent for going against the truth that all people are created from one blood (Acts 17:26). Then we must repair the broken and abused. This way, The Beloved Community of Dr. King can emerge. We urge all people no matter your economic or ethnic estate, to embrace the call for reparations. Contact your elected officials, and those in the economic strata and call for reparations for America´s genocide. Tomorrow depends on it.
The recent uproar about Obama’s plan to nationalize health care has spurred much controversy. Hidden within the 1000 page Bill is language that most scholars and lawyers can barely understand and includes legislation which, has scared many citizens. The mere suggestion that an elderly or dying patient would be required to appear before a GOVERNMENT employee to help them with “end of life issues” has sent Obama’s “Plan” into a tailspin.
What I would like to examine here is not the actual language, or whether the bill is really suggesting some sort of a “death panel” for euthanasia or rationing, but whether this type of idea is possible.
To understand some of what drives the fears, we need not look to far beyond the President’s own pick for his Science Czar, Paul Holdren. In the 1970’s Holdren published many books, several which were co-authored with radical population control guru, Paul Ehrlich. Although Holdren may not have absolutely stated that he wanted to add sterilizing agents to the nation’s water supplies to keep the population down, he did say that if the population did not “voluntarily” decrease, this could be one option. And Holdren should know, because he was on panels and in touch with high level government officials, birth control pushers, pro-abortion enthusiasts, and Zero Population Growth experts who were, in fact, espousing this type of coercion. Holdren stated officially that one of his mentors was a Professor he had by the name of Paul Harrison.
Harrison suggested that infanticide was a legitimate form of population control when he wrote this in his book, The Challenge of Man’s Future, from page 87 . ” In the absence of restraint abortion, sterilization, coitus interruptus, or artificial fertility control, the resultant high birth rate would have to be matched at equilibrium by an equally high death rate. A major contribution to the high death rate could be infanticide, as has been the situation in cultures of the past.“
Holdren asked this question in an article authored by him, which was published a book entitled, No Growth Society,
” Why, then, should we compound our plight by permitting population growth to continue?” He stated clearly that in the 1970’s the US had already exceeded its “optimum population size of 210 million” (pg. 41) and concluded that , ” it should be obvious that the optimum rate of population growth is zero or negative…“
Many people are not aware of the fact that State GOVERNMENTS within the United States openly supported Eugenics. In fact, as early as 1907 Indiana had established the first GOVERNMENT “eugenics court” and the last GOVERNMENT Eugenics court was not closed until 1984, that was in Oregon. These Eugenics Courts, were GOVERNMENT Boards and they required the poor, the infirmed, “feebleminded” and minorities, which, included a large population of black people to appear before them to decide who could and could not pro-create. Remember, Eugenics Boards and GOVERNMENT Boards – were one in the same. Many of these underrepresented people groups were forcibly sterilized and coerced into birth control clinics in order to keep their GOVERNMENT welfare! Recently a well-documented film, called, Maafa21, produced by Life Dynamics in Denton, Texas, has exposed much of this abuse. You can get a copy here: www.maafa21.com. You can also google Eugenics in North Carolina, and read the GOVERNMENT documents which that state has opened up and get just a sneak peak of what a run-away GOVERNMENT board with this kind of power can do to people.
One other important fact you may not be aware of is the history of the founding of the first group who fought for the legalization of Euthanasia. Most people are not aware that many of the exact same people who originally founded the idea of legalized euthanasia in the US, were the same ones who were on the Board of Planned Parenthood Founder, Margaret Sanger’s American Birth Control League (ABCL). To examine this closer – all you have to do is get a copy of the New York Times from January 17,1938.
In 1938, just a few years prior to the American Birth Control League (ABCL) changing it’s name to Planned Parenthood, which today is the largest abortion provider in the nation, a group of American Eugenics Society Members and Sanger’s American Birth Control League (ABCL) members got together and formed the National Society for the Legalization of Euthanasia. Heading this pro-euthanasia panel was a man by the name of Charles F. Potter who, in 1938 was also on the ABCL Committee for Planned Parenthood according to a February 1938, New York Times story. Potter was the leader of the First Humanist Society and organized this entire pro-euthanasia group.
Also on this pro-euthanasia board was: Sidney Goldstein who sat on the American Birth Control League’s National Council and later was on Planned Parenthood’s Board of Directors. Another member was Frank H. Hankins who was a managing editor for Planned Parenthood founder, Margaret Sanger’s newsletter called the Birth Control Review. Hankins was also an American Eugenics Society member. Another more famous name who was sat on the advisory board of this pro-euthanasia panel, was Julian Huxley, who was a later recipient of a Planned Parenthood award.
Mrs. F. Robertson Jones was also on this panel, she was an ABCL President, wrote for Sanger’s Birth Control Review , was an honorary board member of Planned Parenthood-World Population and a Board of Director of Planned Parenthood. ABCL Citizen’s Committee for Planned Parenthood member, Dr. Foster Kennedy, was also on the pro-euthanasia panel. American Eugenics Society Member, Clarence Cook Little, who was the President of Margaret Sanger’s American Birth Control League (ABCL), at the same time he was on this pro-euthanasia panel. American Eugenics Society founder and friend to Margaret Sanger, Leon Whitney, also sat on this panel. Whitney advocated forced sterilization, was published in Sanger’s Birth Control Review, and openly praised Adolf Hitler for his Nazi effort. Planned Parenthood founder, Margaret Sanger was not on this panel, but she was a member of the American Eugenics Society and many of their members were on this panel. Sanger admitted that she gave a speech to the Klu Klu Klan and in her autobiography , she bragged that she received a dozen invites from the Klan for further speeches. Planned Parenthood is the nation’s largest Population Control and some would say “Eugenics Control” organization and they receive millions of dollars from the US GOVERNMENT. Care to ask why????
It is important to know this because the “population Control” , “Zero Population Growth”, “Planned Parenthood” crowds are buzzing around this administration and have been heavily involved in government decision making for years. In fact, Sanger’s Planned Parenthood organization receives over $1 million dollars a day from the Government to sterilize and abort this so-called over-populated society. Planned Parenthood’s own research arm, the Alan Guttmacher Institute , reports that Black Minorities receive 5 abortions to every 1 white baby aborted in this nation. Is this coincidence or a form of racist and eugenic targeting? Remember that when they removed the GOVERNMENT Eugenics Courts, they appear to have replaced them with Federal Funding of Population Control Groups, like Planned Parenthood.
So , could we see potential “Death Panels” in Nationalized Health Care, or Co-op Health Care? You Bet! Look at those who have been advocating for euthanasia and abortion for many years and you will see that they receive large amounts of funding from the GOVERNMENT already. Do you really believe that if we can form GOVERNMENT Eugenics Boards which forcibly sterilized thousand of Americans, murder 50 million unborn children through abortion with the blessing and funding of the GOVERNMENT to the nation’s largest abortion provider, Planned Parenthood, and form euthanasia panels to legalize the act, that we would never have GOVERNMENT death panels? Then…think again !
“Contraceptives will become a form of drug warfare against the helpless in this nation.” Jesse Jackson, 1971
“Under the cover of an alleged campaign to ‘alleviate poverty,’ white supremacist Americans and their dupes are pushing an all-out drive to put rigid birth control measures into every black home. No such drive exists within the white American world.” Black Unity Party, 1968
“Proponents…have argued this bill is for blacks and the poor who want abortions and can’t afford one. This is the phoniest and most preposterous argument of all. Because I represent the inner-city where the majority of blacks and poor live and I challenge anyone here to show me a waiting line of either blacks or poor whites who are wanting an abortion.” Iowa State Rep. June Franklin, Democrat 1971.
“The abortion law, hides behind the guise of helping women, when in reality it will attempt to destroy our people.” Brenda Hyson, New York chapter, Black Panther Party, 1971
“A true revolutionary cares about the people–he cares to the point that he is willing to put his life on the line to help the masses of poor and oppressed people. He would never think of killing his unborn child.” Detroit chapter, Black Panther Party, 1970
“How the hell is getting the pill? The Mexican and the Negro. Do you want to wipe us out?” Caesar Chavez, 1967
“It is strange that they choose to start talking about population control at the same time that Black people in America and people of color around the world are demanding their rightful place as human citizens and their rightful share of the material wealth in the world.” Jesse Jackson, 1977
All these quotes are from a new film on Eugenics and Population Control called: Maafa21. It is a MUST SEE film- the best ever made on this issue. The early civil rights leaders, Black Panthers and others saw through the Planned Parenthood mirage. They saw it for what it really was: BLACK GENOCIDE.
Today 5 BLACK babies to every 1 White baby will die inside American Abortion Clinics. Is there a targeting going on? Find out: Maafa21:
WASHINGTON, Aug. 26 /Christian Newswire/ — The Christian Medical Association (CMA), the nation’s largest faith-based organization of physicians, today warned of the potential for pro- suicide ideology to seep into law and government policy. The organization pointed to pro-suicide influence in a controversial Veterans Administration (VA) manual and a section of the main House healthcare overhaul bill.
The VA manual, entitled, “Your Life, Your Choices: Planning for Future Medical Decisions,” was co- authored by Dr. Robert Pearlman, who unsuccessfully pleaded for a constitutional right to assisted suicide in a 1996 Supreme Court case. [i]
The VA manual lists scenarios such as being in a wheelchair, needing kidney dialysis, or requiring a feeding tube and then asks the patient to consider whether those situations might make his or her life “Not worth living.”
Dr. Gene Rudd, Senior Vice President of the 16,000- member Christian Medical Association, said, “As physicians, we recognize the value of advance planning and counseling and appointing a personal healthcare proxy. The VA manual goes a step further, however, subtly raising with vulnerable patients the possibility that physical impairments might make their lives, in the words of the manual, “not worth living.”
“And now we learn that the pro-assisted suicide group Compassion & Choices claims [ii] to have worked with Congressional leaders to secure the end-of-life section of the healthcare overhaul bill, HR 3200. Section 1233 of that bill calls for government funds to pay healthcare professionals to give patients ‘an explanation of orders regarding life sustaining treatment or similar orders, which shall include– the reasons why the development of such an order is beneficial to the individual and the individual’s family…‘
“Imagine that you’re depressed. You found out last week you have cancer. You were told that with treatment you have a 50/50 chance of beating it. No one knows how sad you are; no one has asked.
“But now the end-of-life counselor suggests you should consider this: Your disease and treatment may be a burden on your family. The cost of treatment will be significant. You may accept treatment, or decline treatment and opt for comfort care. Imagine the impact of those suggestions on a vulnerable patient.“
“Such counseling may serve the government’s purposes in a bill explicitly designed to ‘reduce the growth in health care spending.’ But it does not serve the patient’s best interest.
“A physician must remain an impartial advocate for the patient–not for the government. Paying physicians and others to counsel patients regarding the end of life when the government will be paying for that patient’s end of life care creates a conflict of interest. Patients need to know they can trust us to give independent counsel–not government propaganda.“

Angus Reid Strategies, whose polling work on political, social and economic policy is frequently quoted in the world’s leading publications has published a Canadian poll revealing the country’s attitudes toward Euthanasia. After years of socialized medicine, this poll reveals some interesting facts.
” Half the sample was asked whether they support doctor-assisted suicide while the other half was asked if they supported euthanasia.
Results from both questions were virtually identical (77% supported legalizing euthanasia while 78% supported allowing doctor-assisted suicide).
In order to determine whether support for euthanasia varies in specific cases, respondents were presented with certain scenarios under which patients may seek to end their lives.
Support for euthanasia was strongest under scenarios where a patient is terminally ill and seeks to end their life early (85% support euthanasia in this scenario) and where a patient is in a coma with little chance of waking and had previously specified their wishes to have their life terminated if they were ever to find themselves in this condition (86% support euthanasia in this scenario).
Support for euthanasia plunges for patients seeking to be die at the same time as their spouse, a scenario that made headlines when British composer Edward Downes sought to end his life along with his wife at a private clinic in Switzerland last month. Three-in-four Quebecers (76%) strongly oppose euthanasia in this instance.
Quebecers are split on whether a parent should have the right to euthanize a child suffering from a severe form of a disease like cerebral palsy, a situation similar to the notorious Robert Latimer case. In this instance, 40 per cent of respondents would support euthanasia while 48 per cent would oppose it.
Nearly three-in-four respondents (72%) also said that they believe patients should also have the right to refuse life-saving treatment from doctors.
Finally, a near majority of Quebecers (49%) believe that provincial governments—and not the federal government—should be allowed to set the laws that govern whether euthanasia is legal and under what circumstances.
The findings are strikingly consistent across a variety of demographic groups. While older respondents tend to be slightly more opposed to euthanasia, there is surprisingly.
FACTS: Most people are not aware that many of the exact same people who originally founded the idea of legalized euthanasia in the US, were the same ones who were on the Board of Planned Parenthood Founder, Margaret Sanger’s American Birth Control League (ABCL).

So, in the current Health Care debate, could we see euthanasia on children whose parents find then inconvenient? Sure? and the elderly? You bet !
In the 1970’s President Obama’s Science Czar, Paul Holdren, published many books, several which were co-authored with radical population control guru, Paul Ehrlich. Holdren stated officially that one of his mentors was a Professor he had by the name of Paul Harrison.
Harrison suggested that infanticide was a legitimate form of population control when he wrote this in his book, The Challenge of Man’s Future, from page 87 . ” In the absence of restraint abortion, sterilization, coitus interruptus, or artificial fertility control, the resultant high birth rate would have to be matched at equilibrium by an equally high death rate.

In the 1970s, as the leading theoretician of animal rights, Peter Singer, Professor of Bioethics at Princeton University and Philosophy coined the term “speciesism” for anyone so narrow-minded as to, “allow the interest of his species to override the greater interest of members of other species“. Singer holds that the right to physical integrity is grounded in a being’s ability to suffer, and the right to life is grounded in the ability to plan and anticipate one’s future. Since the unborn, infants, and severely disabled people lack the ability to plan and anticipate their future, he states that abortion, infanticide, and euthanasia can be justified in certain special circumstances, for instance in the case of severely disabled infants whose life would cause suffering both to themselves and to their parents.
In a question posed to Singer, it was asked:
“If you had to save either a human being or a mouse from a fire, with no time to save them both, wouldn’t you save the human being?”
Singer’s answer, ” Yes, in almost all cases I would save the human being. But not because the human being is human, that is, a member of the species Homo sapiens. Species membership alone isn’t morally significant, but equal consideration for similar interests allows different consideration for different interests. The qualities that are ethically significant are, firstly, a capacity to experience something — that is, a capacity to feel pain, or to have any kind of feelings. That’s really basic, and it’s something that a mouse shares with us. But when it comes to a question of taking life, or allowing life to end, it matters whether a being is the kind of being who can see that he or she actually has a life — that is, can see that he or she is the same being who exists now, who existed in the past, and who will exist in the future. Such a being has more to lose than a being incapable of understand this. Any normal human being past infancy will have such a sense of existing over time. I’m not sure that mice do, and if they do, their time frame is probably much more limited. So normally, the death of a human being is a greater loss to the human than the death of a mouse is to the mouse – for the human, it cuts off plans for the distant future, for example, but not in the case of the mouse. And we can add to that the greater extent of grief and distress that, in most cases, the family of the human being will experience, as compared with the family of the mouse (although we should not forget that animals, especially mammals and birds, can have close ties to their offspring and mates). That’s why, in general, it would be right to save the human, and not the mouse, from the burning building, if one could not save both. But this depends on the qualities and characteristics that the human being has. If, for example, the human being had suffered brain damage so severe as to be in an irreversible state of unconsciousness, then it might not be better to save the human“
Singer states here that, ” The difference between killing disabled and normal infants lies not in any supposed right to life that the latter has and the former lacks, but in other considerations about killing. Most obviously there is the difference that often exists in the attitudes of the parents. The birth of a child is usually a happy event for the parents. They have, nowadays, often planned for the child. The mother has carried it for nine months. From birth, a natural affection begins to bind the parents to it. So one important reason why it is normally a terrible thing to kill an infant is the effect the killing will have on its parents.
It is different when the infant is born with a serious disability. Birth abnormalities vary, of course. Some are trivial and have little effect on the child or its parents; but others turn the normally joyful event of birth into a threat to the happiness of the parents, and any other children they may have.
Parents may, with good reason, regret that a disabled child was ever born. In that event the effect that the death of the child will have on its parents can be a reason for, rather than against killing it.
When asked the question: Would you kill a disabled baby?
Singer Replied, “Yes, if that was in the best interests of the baby and of the family as a whole. Many people find this shocking, yet they support a woman’s right to have an abortion. One point on which I agree with opponents of abortion is that, from the point of view of ethics rather than the law, there is no sharp distinction between the fetus and the newborn baby.“
With Professors like Singer, Harrison and others teaching our kids at major Universities – do you really believe that National Health Care will not go down the slippery slope to Death Panels and Euthanasia? Just Sayn !
BELLEVUE, Neb., Aug. 28 /Christian Newswire/ — Four former employees of late-term abortionist LeRoy Carhart have come forward to tell of unsafe and illegal practices at LeRoy Carhart’s Bellevue, Nebraska, abortion clinic.
Members of Operation Rescue and Rescue the Heartland were contacted directly by three of the women. A fourth woman is working directly with a pro-life attorney to tell her knowledge of illegal and unsafe conditions at Carhart’s clinic.
The women have made allegations that unlicensed staff illegally performed medical duties that they were not trained for or legally qualified to do, such as starting IVs, dispensing medication, and even assisting with surgeries. There were also allegations of general unclean conditions, including dried blood on surgical instruments. In addition, the women told of missing narcotics, illicit drug use by employees, and illegal post-viability abortions.
The women worked for Carhart at various times, yet they all made similar, if not identical allegations when interviewed.
One former employee told of incidents where Carhart falsified the gestational age of viable babies in order to circumvent the law. This account matches information uncovered by Operation Rescue during an undercover investigation at the now-closed Women’s Health Care Services in Wichita, Kansas, where Carhart once worked. The worker caught falsifying gestational ages in Kansas now works for Carhart at his Bellevue, Nebraska, abortion clinic. (Read full report.)
The women also chose to contact the Omaha World-Herald to blow the whistle on Carhart. An article detailing their allegations ran this morning. (Read the news story.)
The women have given sworn statements about illegal and unsafe activity at Carhart’s abortion clinic, which will be turned over to the Attorney General’s office and the Nebraska Department of Health, which is investigating Carhart. The women have agreed to cooperate with the investigation.
“We commend these brave women for coming forward to tell of unsafe and illegal conditions that exist at Carhart’s abortion mill,” said Operation Rescue President Troy Newman. “Their courage will help protect women whose health and safety currently at risk.“
Operation Rescue is not releasing the identity of the women out of concern of reprisals against them from Carhart, but the authorities investigating Carhart will have access to that information.
“Rescue the Heartland, Nebraskans United for Life, and Operation Rescue are working together to insure that the information and experiences of these women are heard by the appropriate authorities,” said Newman.
“These allegations are serious and demand immediate action on the part of the authorities in the interest of public safety. We pray that Carhart’s abortion career, which has cost untold thousands of innocent lives and led to the exploitation of thousands of women, will be brought to a speedy and peaceful end through legal channels.”

A notorious New Jersey hate blogger charged in June with threatening to kill judges and lawmakers was secretly an FBI “agent provocateur” paid to disseminate right-wing rhetoric, his attorney said Wednesday.
Hal Turner, the blogger and radio personality, remains jailed pending charges over his recent online rants, which prosecutors claim amounted to an invitation for someone to kill Connecticut lawmakers and Chicago federal appeals court judges.
But behind the scenes the reformed white supremacist was holding clandestine meetings with FBI agents who taught him how to spew hate “without crossing the line,” according to his lawyer, Michael Orozco.
“Almost everything was at the behest of the Federal Bureau of Investigation,” Orozco said in a 45-minute telephone interview from New Jersey. “Their job was to pick up information on the responses of what he was saying and see where that led them. It was an interesting dynamic on what he was being asked to do.”
“He’s a devoted American,” added the lawyer, who claims Turner was paid “tens of thousands of dollars” for his service.
Bill Carter, an FBI spokesman, said in a telephone interview the bureau’s policy is “to neither confirm nor deny whether an individual has an association with the FBI.”
Turner’s alleged 5-year-long bureau stint ended sometime in 2007, Orozco said, the year the mischievous online group, Anonymous, briefly shuttered his site — turnerradionetwork.blogspot.com — with a denial of service attack. At the time, hackers also posted what appeared to be private e-mails between Turner and the FBI.
The e-mails are legitimate, said Orozco. The FBI approached Turner, now 47, in 2002, and he spewed rhetoric about politics, white supremacy, immigration, abortion and other hot-button issues for years in exchange for government cash.
Turner was arrested in June at his apartment in suburban New Jersey.
According to court documents, (.pdf) after a three-judge panel of the Chicago-based 7th U.S. Circuit of Appeals upheld a Chicago handgun ban, he blogged that the judges should be “killed.”
“Let me be the first to say this plainly: These judges deserve to be killed. Their blood will replenish the tree of liberty. A small price to pay to assure freedom for millions,” he wrote.
A day later he posted addresses, photos, maps and other identifying information about Chief Judge Frank Easterbrook and Judges Richard Posner and William Bauer, the authorities said. State charges are also pending in Hartford, Connecticut, where Turner is accused of inciting readers to “take up arms” against state lawmakers.
Though the alleged threats came after his FBI service ended, Orozco said Turner’s relationship with the FBI is relevant to his defense.
“It is not trivial that the very government that trained an individual where the line was is prosecuting him when he has not stepped over the line,” Orozco said.
In addition, he is banking (.pdf) on the First Amendment to save his client’s skin.
“It’s a protected political statement. He opined,” Orozco said. “He said they deserved to be killed. He did not say grab a gun and go out and do what is necessary.”
Below is a list of quotes from the past – YOU DECIDE !
The number of contraceptive clinics rose from 34 in 1930 to 803 in 1942. In three states North Carolina, South Carolina, and Alabama- public health authorities have taken the most lead in bringing birth control clinics to rural areas, where they are the most needed. ( SOURCE: An American Dilemma; the Negro problem and Modern Democracy by: Gunnar Myrdal, 1944; Harper and Brothers Publishers; New York P. 178)
In 1942 the name of the Margaret Sanger’s American Birth Control League, was changed to the Planned Parenthood Federation of America. Planned Parenthood is the nation’s largest abortion provider and has most of it’s clinics in minority neighborhoods.
In 1958, State Representative of Mississippi David H Glass sponsored a sterilization bill.
He was angered by black women who made it a business to give birth to illegitimate children and collected welfare assistance for them. Glass wanted to “ stop, or slow down, such traffic at its source.” According to Mississippi’s The Delta Democrat-Times, Glass said it was designed to limit the number if illegitimate Negro children. Four times more Black children than Whites were receiving Aid to Families with Dependent Children in Mississippi in the early 60’s. ( SOURCE: Genocide? Birth Control and the Black American by Robert G. Weisbord: Greenwoord Press, 1975; PP. 141-142 and The Delta Democrat-Times, Bill would have unwed mothers sterilized: 2/7/1958; P2)
In 1960, Nelson A Howard, JR. , Pasadena Planned Parenthood Committee, Drive Chairman, said,
“ For every 1000 unwanted pregnancies Planned Parenthood helps avoid in indigent families, tax payers save more than a million dollars a year.” ( In 1965, He was named area co-chairman of the second nationwide campaign of Planned Parenthood- World Population)
( SOURCE: Pasadena Independent: Tax Saving cited by Birth Club: 2/4/1960, P. 19)
As [ Margaret] Sanger , ( Founder of Planned Parenthood), allied herself with the burgeoning eugenics movement, the call for birth control veered away from its radical, feminist origins to include programs to regulate the poor, immigrants and blacks, based on theories of genetic inferiority and social degeneracy. Some blacks of the period, including the nationalist leader Marcus Garvey, opposed birth control as a form of “race suicide.” ( SOURCE: Alan Guttmacher, Family Planning Perspectives, Volume 32, Number 2, March/April 2000 :Forum: Black Women and the Pill, By Dorothy Roberts )
In 1965, Langston Hughes wrote in his column, “ White folks are not thinking about being sterilized, neither in war nor peace. It is India, China, Africa and Harlem they is considering- 300 million dollars worth of birth control for us! You know I really do believe white folks has got something up their sleeve for colored folks. Yes, they has.” ( SOURCE: Population Explosion, by Langston Hughes, NY Post : 12/10/1965)
In 1965, At the White House Conference on Civil Rights sponsored by Lyndon Johnson, Cecil Moore of the NAACP, made this attack on population control, “ And I have noticed that every time that we talk about population and planned parenthood, the only country I find that wants to limit poverty by limiting the poor- they always want to do it in Africa and South America and Asia , but I never heard them talk about doing it in Paris or England. Then I hope I am not belaboring the point, but don’t take that away from Negroes because we don’t have much else.” ( SOURCE: The Historical Journal, Vol. 41, No. 1 ( Mar., 1998) pp. 259-282, The 1966 White House Conference on Civil Rights, by Kevin L. Yuill, quoting transcript records of the WHCCR)
In 1968, this was reported in the Press-Courier: Many black militants also see the government’s participation in birth control programs as “black genocide.” As one militant put it to this column: “Whitey is trying to get us before we’re born.”
In some U. S. cities, the government finances clinics where disadvantaged persons get instruction in family planning and are given contraceptives free of charge. In other places,
Government finances programs to promote birth control.
( SOURCE: THE PRESS-COURIER, PAGE FOUR Thursday, Sept, 12, 1968)
In a March 1968 article in Ebony Magazine, Douglas Stewart, Director of the National Office of Community Relations of Planned Parenthood spoke of the fear of genocide against blacks, “Many Negro women have told our workers, There are two kinds of pills – one for white women and one for us…and the one for us causes sterilization. This is a very real fear for some women’” (SOURCE: Ebony Magazine, Birth Control and the Negro Woman, By Mary Smith: March 1968; PP. 29-37 )
In December of 1969, President Richard Nixon’s White House Conference on Food and Nutrition, was a farce. Not only did it dash the hopes of the hungry in a way unprecedented, it also succeeded in advancing- against strong sentiments of the poor at the conference- the administration’s own program of imposing birth control on the Blackpoor . ..His [ Nixon’s] primary concern was obviously toward reducing the number of hungry-not hunger itself.
There appeared inadvertently in the press room during the first morning of the conference a working paper of the panel on the “Pregnant and Nursing Women and Infants”, which was the first panel under a section titled “Establishing Guidelines for the Nutrition of Vulnerable Groups ( With Special Reference to the Poor).” …First and foremost , that panel was following the same wish devoutly expressed by the President, himself: Birth Control. What this panel concocted for tacit approval and adoption by the conference of poor and hungry people was a cleverly phrased recommendation that Congress pass a law providing for:
- Making birth control information and devices available to any and all girls over the age of 13 who requested them , with or without the permission of parents.
- Mandatory abortion for any such unmarried girl found to be pregnant and within the first three months of that pregnancy
- Mandatory sterilization of any such girl giving birth out of wedlock for a second time.
A look at the panel itself showed only one black person present</strong
Mrs. Fannie Lou Hamer asked whether she would favor such birth control measures proposed by Dr. Lowe’s panel, she responded with shock and disappointment, “ What? What are you talking about? Birth Control? I didn’t come here to talk about birth control. I came here to get some food to feed poor, hungry people. Where are they carrying on that kind of talk?”

In a 1970, in a commencement speech at Syracuse University, Julian Bond, said this as the director of the Student Non-Violent Coordinating Committee, which he helped found. At the time of the speech, he was a member of the Board of Trustees of the Southern Conference Education Fund, of the Advisory Board of the proposed Martin Luther King, Jr. Memorial Library, and of the Executive Committee of the Atlanta NAACP. Bond suggested that the intense interest in the ‘population bomb” could lead to genocide of black Americans and other poor people.( SOURCE: Transcript, Commencement address delivered at Syracuse University by Julian Bond on June 6,1970)
In 1970, Paul Ehrlich , author of The Population Bomb, made this statement after the The Black Caucus withdrew from the First National Congress on Optimum Population and Environment,
“ When you run a white racist society, the minority is bound to express nervousness. If you’re a black man and white are talking about birth control, it’s natural for you to conclude that they mean to control black population.” (SOURCE: The Register: Blacks couldn’t cope with COPE: 6/15/1970)
In a recent survey of 500 black Americans, only half believed that the government tells the truth about the safety and side effects of new birth control methods.
Birth control conspiracy theories still affect the use of birth control by black men and women, according to a study reported in the latest issue of the journal Health Education and Behavior.
One-third of participants of the telephone survey said that medical institutions use poor and minority people as “guinea pigs”to try out new birth control methods, according to study authors Sheryl Thorburn of Oregon State University and Laura Bogart of the Rand Corporation. Substantial numbers of those surveyed also believed that the government uses birth control as a way to control the black population in America. Almost a quarter of those surveyed agreed that “poor and minority women are sometimes forced to be sterilized by the government”, while 22 percent agreed that “the government’s family planning policies are intended to control the number of Black people.”

Introducing the newest campaign in the EX shirts series (drum roll please)…. The EX-Abortionist shirt.
This is a really bold shirt that is definitely needed in our generation. 4,000 babies are aborted everyday in America. That’s about 1 baby every 20 seconds. And the majority of abortions take place with young people, ages 25 and under.
In this video, Nyasha, who is the director of the T-shirt ministry at P4CM, catches up with gospel recording artist JR of Cross Movement Records, who has a song called Sorry Child on his debut album Metamorphisis. On Sorry Child and in this video JR shares his testimony of how he participated in two abortions, and how he found forgiveness, redemption, and perfect peace from his past sins in Christ Jesus.
Dr. Alveda King, Director of African American Outreach for Priests for Life and niece of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., said today that the Justice Department’s new drive to investigate the possibly racist policies of federal fund recipients should include Planned Parenthood.
“The acting head of the Obama administration’s Civil Rights Division wants to crack down on groups that receive federal money and whose policies have a negative impact on minorities,” said Dr. King. “I can save her a lot of time. All she has to do is look at the abortion industry and its leading money maker, Planned Parenthood, to find suspicious characters.”
“I would say wiping out one-quarter of the African American population qualifies as a negative impact on a minority group,” added Dr. King. “There is no greater violator of civil rights than the abortion industry and if the Obama Justice Department is serious about investigating discrimination perpetrated by recipients of federal money, it should start with the billion dollar abortion giant, Planned Parenthood.”

Fox and Friends and Pastor Stephen Broden: Health Care as Population Control?
Please understand that the effort to “Save the planet” includes depopulation of humans that are already here, So when you hear these words be warned !
On this site we have additional info on Obama’s Science Czar: John P. Holdren’s views. Search this site for details on Euthanasia and abortion being mandated as well. Given this – Do you reall want the government controlling your health care?
Cass Sunstein, President Barack Obama’s nominee to head the Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs (OIRA), has advocated a policy under which the government would “presume” someone has consented to having his or her organs removed for transplantation into someone else when they die unless that person has explicitly indicated that his or her organs should not be taken.
Under such a policy, hospitals would harvest organs from people who never gave permission for this to be done.
Outlined in the 2008 book “Nudge: Improving Decisions About Health, Wealth, and Happiness,” Sunstein and co-author Richard H. Thaler argued that the main reason that more people do not donate their organs is because they are required to choose donation.
Sunstein and Thaler pointed out that doctors often must ask the deceased’s family members whether or not their dead relative would have wanted to donate his organs. These family members usually err on the side of caution and refuse to donate their loved one’s organs.
“The major obstacle to increasing [organ] donations is the need to get the consent of surviving family members,” said Sunstein and Thaler.
This problem could be remedied if governments changed the laws for organ donation, they said. Currently, unless a patient has explicitly chosen to be an organ donor, either on his driver’s license or with a donor card, the doctors assume that the person did not want to donate and therefore do not harvest his organs. Thaler and Sunstein called this “explicit consent.”
They argued that this could be remedied if government turned the law around and assumed that, unless people explicitly choose not to, then they want to donate their organs – a doctrine they call “presumed consent.”
“Presumed consent preserves freedom of choice, but it is different from explicit consent because it shifts the default rule. Under this policy, all citizens would be presumed to be consenting donors, but they would have the opportunity to register their unwillingness to donate,” they explained.
The difference between explicit and presumed consent is that under presumed consent, many more people “choose” to be organ donors. Sunstein and Thaler noted that in a 2003 study only 42 percent of people actively chose to be organ donors, while only 18 percent actively opted out when their consent was presumed.
In cases where the deceased’s wishes are unclear, Sunstein and Thaler argued that a “presumed consent” system would make it easier for doctors to convince families to donate their loved one’s organs.
Citing a 2006 study, Thaler and Sunstein wrote: “The next of kin can be approached quite differently when the decedent’s silence is presumed to indicate a decision to donate rather than when it is presumed to indicate a decision not to donate. This shift may make it easier for the family to accept organ donation.”
The problem of the deceased’s family is only one issue, Sunstein and Thaler said, admitting that turning the idea of choice on its head will invariably run into major political problems, but these are problems they say the government can solve through a system of “mandated choice.”
“Another [problem] is that it is a hard sell politically,” wrote Sunstein and Thaler. “More than a few people object to the idea of ‘presuming’ anything when it comes to such a sensitive matter. For these reasons we think that the best choice architecture for organ donations is mandated choice.”
Mandated choice is a process where government forces you to make a decision – in this case, whether to opt out of being an organ donor to get something you need, such as a driver’s license.
“With mandated choice, renewal of your driver’s license would be accompanied by a requirement that you check a box stating your organ donation preferences,” the authors stated. “Your application would not be accepted unless you had checked one of the boxes.”
To ensure that people’s decisions align with the government policy of more organ donors, Sunstein and Thaler counseled that governments should follow the state of Illinois’ example and try to influence people by making organ donation seem popular.
“First, the state stresses the importance of the overall problem (97,000 people [in Illinois] on the waiting list and then brings the problem home, literally (4,700 in Illinois),” they wrote.
“Second, social norms are directly brought into play in a way that build on the power of social influences [peer pressure]: ‘87 percent of adults in Illinois feel that registering as an organ donor is the right thing to do’ and ’60 percent of adults in Illinois are registered,’” they added.
Sunstein and Thaler reminded policymakers that people will generally do what they think others are doing and what they believe others think is right. These presumptions, which almost everyone has, act as powerful factors as policymakers seek to design choices.
“Recall that people like to do what most people think is right to do; recall too that people like to do what most people actually do,” they wrote. “The state is enlisting existing norms in the direction of lifestyle choices.”
Thaler and Sunstein believed that this and other policies are necessary because people don’t really make the best decisions.
“The false assumption is that almost all people, almost all of the time, make choices that are in their best interest or at the very least are better than the choices that would be made [for them] by someone else,” they said.
This means that government “incentives and nudges” should replace “requirements and bans,” they argued.
Neither Sunstein nor Thaler currently are commenting on their book, a spokesman for the publisher, Penguin Group, told CNSNews.com.
In a question-and-answer section on the Amazon.com Web site, Thaler and Sunstein answered a few questions about their book.
When asked what the title “Nudge” means and why people need to be nudged, the authors stated: “By a nudge we mean anything that influences our choices. A school cafeteria might try to nudge kids toward good diets by putting the healthiest foods at front.
“We think that it’s time for institutions, including government, to become much more user-friendly by enlisting the science of choice to make life easier for people and by gently nudging them in directions that will make their lives better,” they wrote.
“…The human brain is amazing, but it evolved for specific purposes, such as avoiding predators and finding food,” said Thaler and Sunstein. “Those purposes do not include choosing good credit card plans, reducing harmful pollution, avoiding fatty foods, and planning for a decade or so from now. Fortunately, a few nudges can help a lot. …”

A few days ago, our country marked a pivotal milestone in the history of the American family. Forty years ago, on September 4, 1969, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) declared the new birth control pill to be “safe” for use by women to regulate births.
Forty years later, the true safety of oral contraception is still in question, mostly because the issue of birth control remains mired in politics and in the control of special interest groups who have an enormous financial and ideological interest in making sure the pill is deemed safe for use.
It has been this way from the very beginning.
The birth control pill was the dying wish of Margaret Sanger, a committed eugenicist and the founder of Planned Parenthood. She was 72 years old when she finally found someone willing to develop a “magic pill” that would prevent “undesirable” women, blacks, ethnics and the poor, from breeding.
In 1951, steroid biologist Dr. Gregory Goodwin Pincus of the Worcester Foundation for Experimental Biology in Shrewsbury, Massachusetts, and Dr. John Rock, a clinical professor of gynecology at Harvard Medical School, took on the assignment with a $40,000 grant from Planned Parenthood.
Because it was already known that fertility could be controlled led by hormones, it took Pincus only a year to determine that progesterone did indeed work as an anti-ovulent in rabbits and rats. By 1956, drug maker G.D. Searle and Company, developed Enovid, the first birth control pill. But in order for the new drug to be approved by the FDA, it had to be tested on humans.
According to Robert Marshall and Charles Donovan in Blessed are the Barren, the drug was first tested in 1956 on a group of Puerto Rican women. A year later, tests were expanded to women in Haiti and Mexico City. Planned Parenthood clinician affiliates also began to field test the Pill in various U.S. cities.
Serious health problems arose almost immediately. While the pill successfully prevented ovulation, it also caused blood clots and strokes. Eleven deaths were reported but Searle maintained that there was no conclusive evidence that the Pill caused those deaths.
During the testing period, many women complained of various side effects from the Pill – everything from headaches to nausea – but their complaints were largely dismissed as exaggerations.
In spite of evidence to the contrary, Searle managed to convince the FDA that the drug was safe. In a May 11, 1960 memo, the FDA agreed, saying it based its conclusion on tests of 897 women who had used the Pill. However, the memo also admits that only 132 of those women were actually tested, some after only a year of use.
“Thus, on the basis of 132 of 897 women who used the Pill for a relatively short period of time, a powerful oral steroid unique in the history of medicine was pronounced safe and beneficial for all women of childbearing age,” Marshall and Donovan write.
Much publicity followed, along with hard-sell tactics from the drug industry. “For example, Searle urged its sales people to avoid any mention of side effects like cancer and nausea and to ‘make the doctors want to use’ Enovid by portraying it as ‘the most effective contraceptive known to man’,” Marshall and Donovan write.
Safety issues would continue to dog the new pill. Reports of serious medical complications such as thromboembolism (TE) began to come from England, including a number of fatal cases. In December of 1961, it was discovered that the FDA had investigated the deaths of two Los Angeles women, and was investigating six other deaths.
When this news came to light, Searle’s stock plummeted. However, the company continued to claim that “there is no evidence to suggest this causal relationship . . . between Enovid therapy and the development of thromboembolism.”
During that same year, the FDA was actively investigating 350 cases of TE and deaths associated with Enovid and concluded that death from TE did indeed increase for Enovid users over the age of 35.
Public anxiety rose, and the FDA decided to handle it by endorsing a new study. But instead of assigning it to disinterested scientists, it was given to Searle and Planned Parenthood – the two principal promoters of the pill. Naturally, they concluded that their pill was safe. However, as Marshall and Donovan point out, their study omitted any deaths occurring in women before 24 months of use even though the vast majority of deaths were known to occur within the first six months of use.
In 1966, the FDA formed an Advisory Committee on Obstetrics and Gynecology which also declared the pill to be safe. Of the thirteen committee members and consultants that formed the group, four were directly associated with Planned Parenthood, which was, by now enjoying tremendous profits from the sale of the pill.
The situation reached a peak in the 1970’s when congressional hearings chaired by Senator Gaylord Nelson (D-WI) were convened to address safety concerns. During these hearings, Sen. Nelson said that the literature being supplied to women on the pill “is inaccurate. It is misleading 8,500,000 women in this country and it has been doing it for ten years.”
Planned Parenthood’s Dr. Alan Guttmacher [ Ex - Vice President of the American Eugenics Society] responded by saying the government had no right to tell them what to write in the literature and that such important medical information belonged to doctors, not women.
“From 1965 to 1980, approximately half of the members of the FDA’s obstetric and gynecology advisory committees were affiliated in some way with Planned Parenthood,” Marshall and Donovan write.
The love affair between the Pill, the FDA and drug companies continues to this day – and so do the safety problems.
The Couple to Couple League reports that as of the early 1990’s, there were 13.8 million women in the U.S. on the pill and 60 million worldwide (conservative numbers). There are 7.9 pill-related deaths per 100,000 women ages 15-44, which results in more than 1,000 deaths a year in the U.S. alone.
END PART ONE
Due to the cozy relationship between the Pill, the FDA and drug companies, it remains almost impossible to get unbiased information about the safety of the birth control pill.
However, a recent study by researchers at the Leiden University Medical Center in the Netherlands and published in the August 13, 2009 issue of the British Medical Journal, found that some of the original safety concerns about the pill remain to this day.
In this study, researchers analyzed 26 different oral contraceptives in use by 3,000 women and determined that the pill can increase the risk of suffering a clot known as a deep vein thrombosis (DVT) in the leg or lungs up to fivefold.
The study found that “second generation” pills first used in the 1970s, which contained low levels of estrogen combined with a second hormone levonorgestrel, were the safest.
Newer “third generation” pills, which have been available since the 1980s, which contained a hormone called desogestrel, carried twice the risk of DVT than the second generation medication.
New “gimmick” versions of the pill are also wreaking havoc on womens bodies.
For instance, Norplant, an injectable contraceptive that remains in the body for five years, was pulled off the market in 2002 for causing many problems such as ovarian cysts, hair loss and dangerous blood clots. Tens of thousands of lawsuits were filed against American Home Products, the manufacturer, but the company insists they did nothing wrong.
Studies released in 2004 regarding Depo Privera, another injectable version of the pill, found that many women who used this form of birth control suffer a serious loss of bone density which leads to osteoporosis. This loss of bone density appears to be permanent and does not return to normal after discontinued use.
Pills such as Mircette and Orth Tri-Cyclen, which contain a compound called desogestrel, are also the target of class action lawsuits from women who suffered blood clots with girls as young as 16 having died from their use
The trendy Ortho Evra patch, which delivers the same hormones as the pill through a patch worn on the skin, has also proven deadly. Introduced in 2002, it caused 17 deaths and dozens of adverse reactions in women in just the first two years after its introduction. It remains on the market.
Yasmin or “Yaz”, designed for women who have trouble with pill side effects, contains a synthetic progestin known as drospirenone. According to a lawsuit recently filed against Bayer, the manufacturer, more than 50 women died after taking the drug in the four years since it was introduced, some as young as 17 years old.
The FDA also approved emergency contraception, known as Plan B, which contains unusually high doses of the same stroke and blood-clotting hormone found in lower doses of the pill which require a prescription. Not only was it approved, but it is now available over-the-counter without a doctor’s prescription to women age 17 or older.
“The underlying problem is a total lack of honesty,” concludes Judie Brown, president of the American Life League. “Women are regarded as human guinea pigs with no right to be fully informed. Much of the literature about the birth control pill and other hormonal contraceptives is deceptive, because the federal government has no interest in exposing disturbing facts about them.”
Birth control pills are treated differently than other drugs with life-threatening side effects, she says. Perhaps this is because the pill permits men to engage in sexual promiscuity without responsibility, or because the pill is marketed as liberating women from the fear of pregnancy, she speculates. But the bottom line is that the government is not doing enough to protect women.
“Apparently, the government’s interest in helping to line the pockets of pharmaceutical companies and pill-pushing organizations such as Planned Parenthood trumps its interest in telling the truth. Until this tragic situation changes, there will be no accurate accounting of exactly how many women the birth control pill has killed.”
As you search through my blog – you will see that we have written on a few of the administration’s Czars. Such as Van Jones and John P. Holdren.
I came across this interesting post CZARS: ARE THEY CONSTITUTIONAL? It was written by Devvy Kidd who authored the booklets, Why A Bankrupt America and Blind Loyalty; 2 million copies sold. Devvy appears on radio shows all over the country as well as her own; ran for Congress and is a highly sought after public speaker.
She left the Republican Party in 1996 and has been an independent voter ever since. Devvy says that she isn’t left, right or in the middle; she is a constitutionalist who believes in the supreme law of the land, not some political party.
EXCERPTS:
“I am concerned for the security of our great nation, not so much because of any threat from without, but because of the insidious forces working from within.” — General Douglas MacArthur
Americans have been shell shocked at the number of so-called “czars” the usurper in the White House has been appointing. Not only the numbers, but the backgrounds and political ideology has begun to scare people into action…
Willliam Z. Foster said there would someday be a communist in the White House. That day arrived on January 20, 2009. In his book, Toward Soviet America, on page 271, Foster writes, “The American Soviet Government will be organized along the broad lines of the Russian Soviets.” He goes on to give the blue print and how it will be done. As he outlined, it has been done to America right under everyone’s nose. ..
read The Communist International, of the three tomes, read this one first: 1919-1943 Documents.
The author acknowledges her work would not have been possible without the “generosity” of the Rockefeller Foundation. These three volumes (at a cost of about $135.00 each when you can find one), go step by step how the countries on the globe will first be colonized, who will get destroyed in war and the relentless march towards world communism. You can see history laid out right before your eyes. The quest for global domination under communism isn’t dead, folks.
Kevin Hornbuckle was elected to the city council in Eugene, Oregon, in 1992, as a registered Democrat and then came out of the closet to proudly announce in an interview: “I’d simply point out that Communists in the United States are fighting for health care, housing and jobs as a human right. I’m proud to be a communist.”..
You can’t fight your enemy if you can’t identify who they are and their battle plan.
Are these czars constitutional? That means does Obama/Soetoro have any legal authority to “appoint” these people?
No, he does not. Remember when new world order minion, Papa Bush, appointed Bill Bennett his new “drug czar”? Where were conservatives then? Why weren’t they demanding Bennett be sent on his way because Bush had no legal authority to appoint this czar? Now, “conservative” Republicans in Congress are making lots of noise about Obama’s czars. Same old hypocrites…
Last February, Senator Robert Byrd, to his credit, sent the usurper a letter admonishing him for all these czars. Why? Byrd patiently explained to the hot shot lawyer in the White HOuse that they violated “both the constitutional system of checks and balances and the constitutional separation of powers, and is a clear attempt to evade congressional oversight.” I can find no reference (on the Internet) that Byrd raised an objection to Papa’s Bush’s unconstitutional appointment of Bill Bennett. However, since Obama has “appointed” more czars than any past ruler of Russia, I guess Byrd feels the senate is being pushed aside.…
What can be done?
This is the crux of the matter. Individuals and businesses must fight back. How? If any decision, recommendation, policy or otherwise is issued that affects you or your business, a lawsuit must be filed.
Is it just me or has anyone else noticed a phrase being thrown out against those who protest President Obama’s Government take-over of health care? “HEAT and LIGHT”
This morning, after watching both Fox and Friends and NBC’s Today Show, I listened to interviews with the White House Press Secretary, Robert Gibbs discussing Obama’s attempt to salvage Health Care and his speech this evening. Despite the fact that Gibbs danced around the question of whether Obama will compromise on the ” Public Option” …Gibbs used a phrase in both interviews which I found interesting.
In referring to those who oppose the “public Option” and the plan in general, he called the effort, “HEAT AND LIGHT“. Perhaps I am out of the loop, but what the heck does he mean by “HEAT AND LIGHT“..
I have a suspicion, that while he is speaking to the Press, he is throwing out “Global Warming” terms, such as this “HEAT AND LIGHT” phrase.
So, I googled, “HEAT AND LIGHT” and Global Warming and discovered that it is a negative used in that circle.
Does anyone know the origin of this phrase and why it is being used to describe those who object to the President’s Health Care Bill? Please Advise…
When I was searching this phrase I came across an interesting statement describing Russia’s system of Czars. In Everybody’s Magazine,from 1905: ” …the Czar can do as he pleases. He is above all laws…The Czar indeed directs that a ministerial bill beaten by a two-thirds vote in both houses shall be withdrawn.” Even then the Czar may authorize the Minister to reintroduce the measure in The Ridgeway Company, 1905, P. 567 found in Google Books Online.
Since the 1970s, federal courts have regularly interpreted the “mandatory categories of care” within Medicaid to include abortion and thus mandate abortion coverage. That judicial interpretation of Medicaid will be adopted by courts in interpreting federal health care legislation, unless abortion is expressly excluded.
In addition to the leading case of Planned Parenthood Affiliates of Michigan v. Engler—where the Sixth Circuit held that “abortion fits within many of the mandatory care categories, including ‘family planning,’ ‘outpatient services,’ ‘inpatient services,’ and ‘physicians’ services.’ 73 F.3d 634, 636 (6th Cir. 1996)—at least six other circuit courts (the First, Third, Fifth, Seventh, Eighth, and Tenth) have held that abortion is covered under Medicaid (unless there is a specific statutory exclusion like the Hyde Amendment). Some, like the Sixth Circuit, have specifically held that abortion is covered under the broad “mandatory categories of care” including “family planning” within Medicaid (Title XIX of the Social Security Act, 42 USC 1396d(a)).
The First Circuit, in Preterm, Inc. v. Dukakis held that abortion is covered by Medicaid and implicitly concluded within the mandatory Medicaid categories. 591 F.2d 121, 125 (1st Cir. 1979).
The Third Circuit, in Roe v. Casey, noted with agreement that “[t]he district court took note of the fact that standard abortion procedures ‘involve most, if not all’ of the types or classes of services which are to be furnished to the categorically needy” within Medicaid. Roe v. Casey, 623 F.2d 829, 832 (3rd Cir. 1980).
The Fifth Circuit, in Hope Medical Group for Women v. Edwards, held that a state statute limiting Medicaid-funded abortion procedures was “inconsistent with the broad objective of Title XIX to provide needed medical care to qualified recipients.” 63 F.3d 418, 428 (5th Cir. 1995). The court stated, “[a]lthough Title XIX does not specifically include abortion as a mandatory service, the parties concede that abortion services fall under several of the eight broad categories of medical services mandated by the Act, including inpatient hospital services, outpatient hospital services, physician’s services, and family planning services.” Id. at 425.
The Seventh Circuit, in Zbaraz v. Quern, agreed with the First Circuit’s decision in Preterm “that limiting Medicaid assistance to life-threatening abortions “violate[s] the purposes of the Act and discriminate[s] in a proscribed fashion” 596 F.2d 196, 199 (7th Cir. 1979).
The Eighth Circuit in 1980 held that “[the Medicaid mandatory categories] include medical procedures to induce abortions.” Hodgson v. Board of County Com’rs, Hennepin County, 614 F.2d 601, 607 (8th Cir. 1980). And in Little Rock Family Planning Services, P.A. v. Dalton, the court held that “[a] state plan must cover medical services that a person’s physician certifies are “medically necessary.” 60 F.3d 497, 499 (8th Cir. 1995). Though the Dalton court admitted that “[Title XIX] does not identify any specific medical procedures, whether they are Caesarean sections, transfusions, bypass surgery, or abortions.” Id. at 499, it concluded that “[b]ecause abortion falls within several of these mandated categories [of medical service], a medically necessary abortion is a mandatory covered service.” Id.
The Tenth Circuit, in Hern v. Beye, held that “[a]bortion falls under several … ‘mandatory coverage’ categories, including ‘inpatient hospital services,’ 42 U.S.C. § 1396d(a)(1), ‘outpatient hospital services,’ id. § 1396d(a)(2)(A), ‘family planning services,’ id. § 1396d(a)(4)(C), and ‘physicians’ services furnished by a physician,’ id. § 1396d(a)(5)(A).” 57 F.3d 906, 911 (10th Cir. 1995).
In addition, several federal district courts have read abortion into Medicaid.
In Doe v. Busbee, the court concluded that “[i]t is clear that an abortion is a medical procedure which falls within the five general categories set out in Title XIX.” 471 F.Supp. 1326, 1331 (N.D. Ga. 1979).
In Smith v. Rasmussen, the court held that “[a]bortions . . . fall within several of Medicaid’s mandatory categories of care.” 57 F.Supp.2d 736, 755 (N.D. Iowa, 1999).
In Planned Parenthood Affiliates of Ohio v. Rhodes, the court broadly held that “[t]he ‘promotion’ of abortion, whether it consist of counseling, encouraging, referring, assisting or even performing medically necessary abortions is included in the five general categories.” Planned Parenthood Affiliates of Ohio v. Rhodes, 477 F.Supp. 529, 540 (E.D.Ohio, 1979).
Finally, in reading these decisions, it must be understood that a “medically necessary” abortion is—under the Supreme Court’s abortion doctrine—whatever an abortion provider, in his/her personal, subjective judgment, determines it to be. The terms “necessary” and “medically necessary” are virtually synonymous, because both vest the abortion provider, in his or her subjective judgment, with complete discretion to determine their meaning. As the lower federal courts have applied the terms, an abortion is “necessary” because a woman requests it, and it becomes “medically” necessary when the doctor agrees to it. Consequently, when these two terms are combined—“medically necessary” to preserve the “health” of the woman”—a “medically necessary” abortion means any abortion a provider agrees to perform for any reason.

The niece of Martin Luther King, Jr. is calling for the Obama administration to investigate the racist implications of abortion.
Dr. Alveda King, Director of African American Outreach for Priests for Life, asked the Department of Justice to investigate Planned Parenthood citing a large number of black children who are lost to abortion. Because abortion providers, such as Planned Parenthood, accept federal tax dollars, Dr. King argues an investigation should be conducted to make sure racist policies are not being advanced.
Black Americans, who represent one-eighth of the U.S. population, constitute 37 percent of America’s 1.2 million annual abortions. In other words, of the 45 million abortions conducted between 1973 and 2005, 17 million black children were terminated.
“I would say wiping out one-quarter of the African American population qualifies as a negative impact on a minority group,” said Dr. King. “There is no greater violator of civil rights than the abortion industry and if the Obama Justice Department is serious about investigating discrimination perpetrated by recipients of federal money, it should start with the billion dollar abortion giant, Planned Parenthood.”
The issue of abortion and race has long been an elephant in Planned Parenthood’s waiting room. Media outlets rarely report on the correlation and abortion proponents dismiss such charges as right-wing rhetoric.
But is there a correlation between a woman’s race and the likelihood she will be sitting in a Planned Parenthood surgery room?
Black woman are five times more likely to abort their children than white women and two times more likely than Hispanic women, according to the Guttmacher Institute. The institute is a leading collector of reproductive health statistics.
The abortion rate among whites is 11 abortions per 1000 white women. The children of minorities, however, fare worse. Twenty-eight out of every 1000 Hispanic woman will have an abortion and 50 out of every 1000 black women will do the same.
“The acting head of the Obama administration’s Civil Rights Division wants to crack down on groups that receive federal money and whose policies have a negative impact on minorities,” said Dr. King. “I can save her a lot of time. All she has to do is look at the abortion industry and its leading money maker, Planned Parenthood, to find suspicious characters.”
With all the hype today about what is and isn’t in the health care bill, a lot of people are worried that they are either going to be paying for abortion, losing their current health coverage, or be submitted before some “death panel” for their medical decisions. But I wouldn’t worry about the future of death panels, they are already here.
Flashback to May of 2009. In an article at CBS News by Jeff Emanuel, it is revealed that “In March, Georgia, Florida, and Alabama joined in an appeal of a 2008 U.S. District Court ruling that a patient’s physician was better positioned – and better qualified-to make decisions about that patient’s medical treatment than state bureaucrats.” Did you catch that? Let me state it again: THREE states have filed an APPEAL of a COURT ruling that a patient’s PHYSICIAN is better qualified to make decisions about the PATIENTS medical treatment than STATE BUREAUCRATS.
The case comes from Georgia, and is based around Callie Moore, a disabled teenage girl who suffered a stroke in utero that has left her with cerebral palsy and mental retardation, among other conditions. She requires around the clock care, payment for which has been divided up between Medicare, state funded health insurance plans, and the family.
“In 2007, citing a disagreement with Callie’s attending physician over just how much care she needed, the state cut the portion of Callie’s care it was willing to pay for by 15%, to 84 hours a week, over the objections of her doctor.”
So, the STATE decided that they were wasting too much money on keeping this girl alive, so THEY decided to cut back on her funding. Still think death panels are a myth? Let’s read on.
“Callie’s mother filed suit, arguing the state had no right to contradict the orders of Callie’s personal physician and limit her treatment. However, Georgia officials argued Callie’s care was subject to rationing, as the state bureaucrats’ need to ensure Medicaid resources were allocated “fairly” superseded her doctor’s care prescription or her personal medical needs.”
In June of 2008, a district judge found that the level of medical care should be left up to the decision of the physician, not the state. However: “Rhonda Medows, commissioner of Georgia’s Department of Community Health, immediately appealed the ruling to the 11th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals. Florida and Alabama, which fall under the 11th Circuit’s jurisdiction and will have to abide by its ruling, filed an amicus brief with the Atlanta-based court.”
So let’s get this straight. A person with the Georgia Department of Community Health is getting in between the level of care a physician says is required, and how much the state is willing to pay for? And we are crazy for thinking that this could take place on a national level? WAKE UP PEOPLE!
Okay- I have something to say about the President’s speech last night. First of all, he claims we need the “public Option” because some companies will not do the right thing and carry those with preexisting conditions. Come on- first he said that the proposal would by law require companies to do this, but then he said we need a “Plan B” the so-called “Public Option” if they do not. Doesn’t that scream to you that the government is more interested in controlling individuals than making big corporations obey the law???
Here is another disturbing comment by President Obama:
“Now, even if we provide these affordable options, there may be those — especially the young and the healthy — who still want to take the risk and go without coverage. There may still be companies that refuse to do right by their workers by giving them coverage. The problem is, such irresponsible behavior costs all the rest of us money. If there are affordable options and people still don’t sign up for health insurance, it means we pay for these people’s expensive emergency room visits. If some businesses don’t provide workers health care, it forces the rest of us to pick up the tab when their workers get sick, and gives those businesses an unfair advantage over their competitors. And unless everybody does their part, many of the insurance reforms we seek — especially requiring insurance companies to cover preexisting conditions — just can’t be achieved.
And that’s why under my plan, individuals will be required to carry basic health insurance — just as most states require you to carry auto insurance. “
Wow – where do I start? ” The problem is, such irresponsible behavior costs all the rest of us money…If there are affordable options and people still don’t sign up for health insurance, it means we pay for these people’s expensive emergency room visits.” Let us really examine these words and decide if we really want this to be the ideology behind Government run Health Care. If “irresponsible behavior” causes prices to increase and we, and the rest of us pay for it, and that is why EVERYONE – even the healthy MUST carry insurance – than couldn’t the government dictate that “Smoking” causing increased prices or “Obesity” or “Immoral sexual behavior” ? Be real – we are accepting a “Papa Government, taking care of the serfs” mentality. Do we really want the government to decide what is “Irresponsible behavior”?
As for FORCING everyone to have insurance, how will that impact families? Suppose that a family is barely able to put food on the table and now they will be “REQUIRED” to carry insurance on all members. Won’t that force that family to go under financially? Affordable or not the insurance “requirement” will bankrupt them. Doesn’t the President care about this? Yes, we are “required” to carry auto insurance, but, if we cannot afford it , guess what – WE DO NOT HAVE TO DRIVE !!!!!!!
This plan offers no choice- you must get the package or get a fine or whatever the penalties will be. And what about the illegals – will they be “required” to carry insurance? They have to have auto insurance, don’t they? If they get stopped without it, their car is towed. So, when they flock to our hospital emergency rooms, shouldn’t they provide personal insurance, or will we continue to pay their costs? Then, what happens when they can not afford the private plan? Obama said that this “public Option” will not cover them, of course it won’t, the “public Option” requires that the “Purchase” insurance, we plan on continuing to just give it to them.
Let’s discuss the “Public Option”. I think Obama knows that many college kids and families will be forced to carry insurance and because they cannot afford it, they will buy into the government plan. Once the government has you as a young person – they have you for life ! So, after a few years, more and more will be in the public plan and less will be in private care, causing prises to rise for those who remain.
Now, does the President really believe that the American Government will be able to run anything which is “self sufficient?” Come on, people WAKE UP!!!!
This will cost us trillions and the spiral effect will be heavy taxes on those of us already responsible enough to carry personal insurance. The “Single Payer” – will be you and me ! Make no doubt – we will carry the burden of this plan. Now, I am a charitable person, and I will help anyone I can, but I do not want the government to tax me into charity and that is exactly what will happen.
Remember that they have the “Cap and Trade” bill coming down the pike, the “Stimulus bill” , which has had little effect and put us on thr brink of a falling dollar, and “Pork Barrel Spending” out the wazoo – we are a nation going BROKE !
If President Obama wants every American to “be responsible” so we do not “raise costs for the rest of us” I suggest they begin with Congress and the White House. Costs are going UP UP UP, because the Congress for several administrations: Republican and Democrat have been spending like there is no tomorrow.
So, I call YOU Out Mr. President – why don’t you get YOUR HOUSE IN ORDER before you try and fix MY HOUSE? Why can’t Congress get their spending under control first, so our taxes will go down and we can afford health care?
One more point, the coverage for abortion. There is no language in the bill which prohibits the use of the “Public Option” to pay for abortions. I suppose President Obama wants us to believe him on his say-so only, despite the fact that most in the Congress right now pander heavily to a pro-abortion industry, including the President. All of his appointments have been “Pro-choice” and he has promised to lift all “abortion restrictions”, but, alas, he will not allow this plan to pay for abortions? BUNK ! Let’s be clear, several amendments have been offered to specifically state that no dollars can go to cover abortions in the Health Care Plan, anytime anywhere. If the President is so insistent that this not happen, than why doesn’t he tell the Democrats to approve these amendments? Instead, every effort to state and clear the air on this issue of abortions has been struck down !
All we have to do is listen to what the President said to the nation’s largest ABORTION PROVIDER, when he spoke to Planned Parenthood, during his campaign:
“Some people argue that the federal ban on abortion was just an isolated effort aimed at one medical procedure—that it’s not part of a concerted effort to roll back the hard-won rights of American women. That presumption is also wrong….It is time for a different attitude in the White House. It is time for a different attitude in the Supreme Court. It is time to turn the page and write a new chapter in American history…
“I put Roe at the center of my lesson plan on reproductive freedom when I taught Constitutional Law. Not simply as a case about privacy but as part of the broader struggle for women’s equality. Steve and Pam will tell you that we fought together in the Illinois State Senate against restrictive choice legislation—laws just like the federal abortion laws, the federal abortion bans that are cropping up. I’ve stood up for the freedom of choice in the United States Senate and I stand by my votes against the confirmation of Judge Roberts and Samuel Alito [Applause]…
“Now, I know I’m limited on time but I just want to expand on that second part of your question which is role that organizations like Planned Parenthood play. Obviously, my hope under a universal health care system is that everybody’s got access to basic care and we have less of a patchwork quilt of services. That—I still believe that it is important for organizations like Planned Parenthood to be part of that system. Because, many young women, for example, may be much more comfortable when they are in college or universities or other places, going to Planned Parenthood clinics and services to get contraception, for example. So, my hope is that we still have non-profit participation under my plan.
“We need more programs in our communities like the National Black Church Initiative which empowers our young people by teaching them about reproductive health, [ CODE FOR ABORTION] sex education and teen pregnancy within the context of the African-American faith tradition.”
And the line from the question and answer time given after the speech to Planned Parenthood which unmasks Obama is this one, “Well, look, in my mind reproductive care is essential care, basic care so it is at the center, the heart of the plan that I propose.“
There it is, ABORTION IS AT THE HEART OF THE HEALTH CARE PLAN HE PROPOSES! With all respect Mr. President, what you said last night is a LIE !
Watch the speech for yourself, then watch Maafa21 and see just who Planned Parenthood thinks abortion is targeted to “Help”.
Watch as this ACORN worker gets a “prostitute” into public housing and then when she tells them she has 13 “underage” girls from El Salvador coming to stay with her so they can essentially learn the “ropes” of prostitution, ACORN assists in helping them cover up and shows them how to make these “SEX SLAVES” independents which they can get a TAX DEDUCTION for.
THIS IS AN OUTRAGE !!!!
ACORN Tells her, ” Don’t worry, you’re fine…make sure they go to school”
When asked, ” But they can still work”
ACORN Replies, “Yes, make sure they go to school” and then tells them how to get a child tax credit !
ACORN ” You’re business is PERFORMING ARTS – so stop saying PROSTITUTION” and then tells her she will get a discount since she is just “Starting out”
In September of 2009, a pro-life activist was gunned down on a public sidewalk by a violent pro-choicer who hated his message. James Pouillon was standing in front of a Michigan High School, where he had stood peacefully many times before, carrying a pro-life sign. The Shiawassee County Prosecutor’s office has charged pro-choicer, Harlan J. Drake, 33, of Owosso with two counts of first-degree, premeditated murder.
Pouillon’s sign depicted a picture of a baby and simply said “LIFE” and for this he was brutally killed.
Police reported that Drake was ticked off at Pouillon’s pro-life message, so he hunted him down in a killing spree, drove up next to the man who had 2 leg braces and carried an oxygen tank, and opened fire. This is the pro-choice response to a non-violent protest, this is their way of bringing “peace” and “Common ground” to the abortion issue. This type of brutal murder , firing several bullets into the body of a loving father and a husband , is the violent pro-choice response to the simple pro-life message: “LIFE“.
Perhaps the years of pro-choice rhetoric has finally caught up with them. The media is not without fault here as well. Even today as I read an AP story, rather than pointing back to the thousands of incidents of angry pro-choice violence against pro-lifers, unborn children, abortion patients, etc. they are using the death of this pro-life martyr, to once again bring up the shooting of an abortion doctor from Wichita. Never in the history of this issue, has the media ever repeated the litany of deaths of the women at the hands of abortion doctors.
Deaths such as Pamela Colson, who bled to death as she left a Pensacola abortion clinic, where she was a patient. The clinic botched her abortion so bad and then sent her on the way- to die on her car as she drove home. You have heard a lot about Pensacola and an abortionist murders, but the media says nothing about Colson’s abortion death ! Why? Because the media is Pro-abortion and they will go to large extents to hide the brutal truth of abortion from the public.
The media also continues to hide the fact that pro-life people are targeted daily for abuse, violence, and now murder. The media, rather than doing their homework and being “un-biased” on this issue- takes all their talking points from the National Abortion Federation and Planned Parenthood – both organizations who make millions of dollars from abortion.
Rather than mention the death of Late-Term abortionist Tiller – they could detail the violent attack in New Jersey of pro-lifer George Krail who was run over by pro-choicers entering the South Jersey Women’s Center run by abortionist: George Danioff. The media could report that when pro-lifer George Krail was laying in pain on the sidewalk after the attack, and no one inside this “Medical Abortion Office” rendered him any assistance according to Krail’s Wife, Tina. It was pro-choicers who violently used their car to break George’s right leg in four places , four of George’s ribs and inflicted several other injuries to his ankle. Why doesn’t the media repeat this violent pro-choice story?
The media could also report the death of abortion patient, Laura Smith who died as a result of her abortion at the Women’s Health Center, in Hyannis, MA. where abortionist Rapin Osathanondh did the botched procedure. During the abortion, Laura’s heart, pulse and blood pressure were not monitored, and there was no oxygen source in the room. The media could report how abortionist Osathanondh, and an office worker who had no training in resuscitative measures, and were only ones with Laura after the abortion. They could report how after the abortion, Osathanondh called Smith’s name to wake her, and when he received no response, he failed to timely initiate a call to 911, according to Laura’s mom, Eileen. Smith was pronounced dead by the time she arrived at Cape Cod Hospital. Eileen reported that Osathanondh lied repeatedly to its staff about the incident, telling them he gave Smith oxygen when he didn’t, monitored her pulse when he didn’t, claimed he and his assistant were certified in Advanced Cardiac Life Support when they weren’t, and said he hadn’t left the room from the time he began CPR until the ambulance arrived.
They could report how Carolina Gutierrez, bought the lie that abortion is a safe, legal procedure. It took her six weeks to die from an infection so bad after her abortion that she developed gangrene.
Yes, these are the faces of PRO-CHOICE AMERICA ! And this is but a drop in the bucket. There are thousands of such stories ranging from brutal attacks of pro-choice boyfriends who kill their pro-life girlfriends because they refuse to have abortions, to pro-choice activists who attack pro-lifers, vandalize their property, and threaten them constantly, to abortion doctors who have sexually assaulted their abortion patients ( google: Dr. Brian Finkel or Dr. Nabil Ghali to name a few) to those who have cared so little for these women that they left the abortion mills in plastic bags, or died later from neglect.
My heart and prayers go out to the Pouillon family. He was a martyr and his message is worth listening to. I hope and pray that he did not die in vain and that the media will begin to report the truth regarding pro-choice violence I call upon the National Abortion Federation and Planned Parenthood to renounce this type of violence and I ask them to reign in their rhetoric which led to this murder. I call for the President to release Federal Marshal to all pro-life facilities for protection and to take seriously the threats that pro-lifers get on a daily basis. I call for a nationwide investigation into the possibility that this murder may be part of a national conspiracy to murder pro-lifers.
Here is proof that the media is biased against pro-lifers especially in how they handle the killings:
Rachel Maddow calls shooting of Late Term abortionist George Tiller ” Domestic Terrorism”
Here she tries to state that this killing of a pro-life activist is an isolated incident and is not the general view of pro-choicers. She fails to list one other incident of pro-choice “TERRORISM” in this report. If you want a list of pro-choice terrorism which Maddow fails to list go here:
This website has been up for years and the media again and again fails to show the truth about PRO-CHOICE TERRORISM and PRO-CHOICE VIOLENCE !
Sample of Threats Received by Operation Rescue Since the Tiller Murder
“Time to start killing bible-thumping morons. If only YOUR parents had believed in abortion.”
“Let those that have sinned cast bullets towards you idiots as well.”
“Since you and your followers promote the killing of doctors who carry out abortions, I think it’s
time for those of us who respect a woman’s right to control her own reproduction to promote
a little terrorism of our own. So watch out, keep looking over your shoulders, who knows
who may be behind you?”
“I eagerly await the day that I see your blood on someone’s hands.”
Below is a picture of a death threat letter received by Operation Rescue:
If you want to learn the truth the media will not repeat – Here a just a few Samples :
Abortionist beats wife
In 1999, Abortionist Neville W. Duncan was placed on 18 months’ probation, sentenced to 30 days in jail and fined $250 after pleading no contest to charges that he beat his wife. He was also arrested when police found crack cocaine in his pocket.
Duncan was arrested after allegedly punching his wife in his car, then pinning her to the ground and slapping her after she climbed out the window of the vehicle, according to Milwaukee Journal Sentinel article, (Doctor sentenced to 30 days in jail -01-15-1999).
News reports indicated that Duncan served time for contempt of court, when he failed to provide the required child support he owed.
Abortionist guilty of murdering wife
December 11, 2001, The Oklahoman detailed the murder trial of abortionist John Baxter Hamilton. Hamilton performed abortions at the Oklahoma Clinic for Women in Oklahoma City, OK.
Hamilton was found guilty in the Valentine’s Day killing of his wife, Susan Hamilton, 55. Her nude body was found lying in blood in the master bathroom of the Hamiltons’ Quail Creek home, her skull fractured and face disfigured. She had been choked with a necktie and beaten to death.
News Reports of the case indicated that Hamilton’s wife had suspected the abortionist of having an affair with a topless dancer who may have been a patient of the doctor’s. His wife was considering leaving him and talking of divorce two days before the murder.
Authorities noted that after Hamilton murdered his wife he then called 911 to report the death. Authorities found the woman dead on the couple’s master bedroom floor.
He was sentenced to life in prison without the possibility of parole in the murder of his wife and was ordered to pay $11,104 for the cost of his incarceration. Following his murder conviction, Oklahoma and Tennessee revoked his medical license and on September 19, 2003, Hamilton voluntarily surrendered his Georgia license.
Abortion doctor accused of killing wife
On December 15,2006, the Hattiesburg American reported in an article, (Doctor pleads not guilty to killing his wife ), that abortionist Malachy DeHenre was arrested after a new indictment accused him of shooting his wife, Dr. Nyasha DeHenre, in the head in their Laurel home in 1997. At his first trial in 1999, the jury voted 11-1 to acquit him, resulting in a hung jury.
According to a WDAM News 7 news report, (Doctor to face 2nd trial for wife’s slaying: 12-18-2006), DeHenre is also being charged with the rape of a then 21-year-old patient when he was practicing at the Family Health Care Center in 1992.
DeHenre has a long history of trouble in his performance of abortions and treatment of women. He performed abortions in Alabama before he lost his license to practice in that state, according to a Washington Post story , (Alabama Abortion Clinic to Stay Shut: 6-15-2006).
The Post reported that DeHenre formerly worked for the Summit abortion clinic in Alabama which, was closed in 2006 after state inspectors found them dispensing RU-486 without a doctor present. The article says that in December of 2004, the Medical Licensure Commission of Alabama indefinitely suspended the license of Malachy M. DeHenre. The commission ruled that DeHenre’s conduct in four cases from 2000 to 2003 was “immoral, unprofessional or dishonorable” and that he endangered his patients through “gross malpractice.”
In March of 2005, DeHenre’s license was indefinitely suspended by the Mississippi Medical Board. It had been temporarily suspended in 2004 after one of DeHenre’s Alabama abortion patients died. A 2004, Clarion Ledger report entitled, Abortion death cited in action against doctor Ala. suspends license of Jackson abortion practitioner, reveals that the Alabama State Board of Medical Examiners found that the patient was discharged from Summit Medical Center 20 minutes after having an abortion on Nov. 25, 2003. Less than six hours later, her husband contacted the medical center and reported that his wife had abdominal pain and a low temperature.
She was taken by ambulance to a Birmingham hospital, where she died. She sustained an unrecognized uterine perforation during the abortion, the board said. “Subsequent hemorrhagic shock led to her ultimate demise,” according to the board’s report to the licensure commission.
According to the Clarion Ledger, (Suspended doc: Didn’t like doing 35,000 abortions: 3-18-2005), after his suspension in Mississippi, DeHenre said that he did not like performing some 35,000 abortions, but did so because he needed the work. “I ask for your forgiveness,” Dehenre said. “I don’t want to be an outcast. I want to be among the medical community.” The Mississippi State Board of Medical Licensure told the press that they received “more than one complaint, ” in the case.
After DeHenre’s 2006 arrest he was denied his bond request and will be held in the Jones County Adult Detention Facility in Ellisville until his trial, which will likely be held in the spring of 2007.

When I was attacked by an angry aborting father named Dr Nelson Kraucak at Orlando Women’s Center abortion clinic on August 29, 2007, there was no one other than the sidewalk missionaries to capture the assault on video. Thankfully, we had noticed Dr K’s menacing behavior & had taken our camera out & turned it on in hopes of avoiding violence. However, it didn’t stop the doctor, who flew into a rage and came after me. Kraucak knocked me to the ground & kicked me repeatedly as a terrified Mary Jo screamed for help.
I was shocked when I read the police report at the state attorney’s office. It was written by Orlando Police Officer Charles Mays, the OPD security on duty at Orlando Women’s Center at the time of the attack. Although the perpetrator, Dr Kraucak, was still inside the clinic with his aborting wife . Dr Kraucak was not even QUESTIONED by OPD officer Charles Mays! Could this be because a ‘conflict of interest’ prevented the Orlando police officer, whose sworn duty is to protect, from wanting to do anything to interfere with the ‘business’ of the late-term labor & delivery abortion that was just getting started? (22 week abortions are $2500, 23 week abortions are $2700, 24 week abortions are $2900. One of the illegal late-term abortions that Pendergraft committed at Orlando Women’s Center cost the 7 month pregnant mother a whopping $12,000!
The state attorney’s office filed battery charges against Dr. Nelson Kraucak on December 21, 2007. The Orange County clerk’s office will take the charges that have been filed, clock them in & assign the arraignment date. Dr K will be served a subpoena & he will be demanded to appear at the arraignment. If Dr K or his attorney “fails to appear,” then a warrant will be issued for his arrest. The new case number for the battery charges against Dr Nelson Kraucak is: 2007-MM-148789
Our hope is that Dr K will be served with the subpoena soon. A tape of my frantic 911 call is available at Orlando Police Department.
Two violent pro-choice abortion supporters arrested , one accepts probation:
In September of 2009 Pro-life activist Johnny Wallace, 69, was attacked on by two women as he stood holding pro-life signs in front of City Hall in Flagstaff, Arizona. The women, both 48, yelled profanities at him, attempted to take his signs and wrestled him to the ground.
On the day of the attack, Wallace, who daily protests in front of City Hall, held two text-only signs. The signs said, “Abortion kills more black Americans in four days than the Klan killed in 150 years,” and the other, “Life begins at conception and ends at Planned Parenthood.“
Radical pro-choicers, Denise Redsteer and Laura Chapman were the two women who attacked the elderly Wallace who was viciously knocked to the ground as he attempted to protect his signs from one of the women. The other woman then joined in the struggle.
Wallace was treated for minor injuries after the incident by medics called to the scene. Police arrested and charged both women with misdemeanor counts of disturbing the peace and criminal damage.
In November of 2009, Denise Redsteer, 48, accepted a “deferred prosecution” in Flagstaff Municipal Court, said City Prosecutor Lisa Stankovich.
Deferred prosecution does not admit guilt, and if Redsteer successfully completes the terms of her probation, the charges against her will be dismissed.
Stankovich said that Redsteer has also agreed to pay a $150 prosecution fee and not commit any criminal offenses during the probationary period.
Memorial for pro-lifer Jim Pouillon gunned down by violent pro-choicer
With only a day’s notice, nearly 300 people attended the Sunday, Sept. 13th vigil for slain pro-lifer Jim Pouillon. With several reporters and TV cameras present, hymns were sung, prayers were offered, testimonials were proclaimed and Scripture readings declared. Scripture readings included: Isaiah 50: 4-9, Psalm 116 and Mark 8: 27-38: “Whoever wishes to save his life will lose it and whosever loses his life for my sake and that of the gospel will save it.”
These words describe perfectly what happened to dedicated pro-lifer and devout Christian Jim Pouillon. Your CPLS director stated: “Jim was killed because he held the photo of a victim of abortion. Anyone who holds such a sign stands next to Jesus as he hangs on the Cross. To stand with such a sign is to place yourself on the side of the outcast, the abandoned, the unwanted, the misunderstood–and in that way you you stand next to Jesus on the Cross. No matter what anyone wants to say about Jim’s death–especially those who support abortion– he died for his faith and he died for the cause of life. That is the meaning of his death. He was a voice for the outcast and now his blood had been mixed with theirs.
His death must cause us to re-commit ourselves to the pro-life cause. We must become more generous, be willing to take risks and make sacrifices–allow ourselves to be spent for this cause. The pro-life cause is worth living for–it is worth dying for.“
Jim Pouillon
Frank Samson– the brave motorist who saw the gunman, Harlan Drake–followed him in his car after he shot Jim- and wrote down Drake’s license plate number. He turned over the information to the police who captured Drake before he was able to kill his third intended victim. Thus, Mr. Samson saved a life that day.

As I stated in a previous BLOG, where I list other incidents of pro-choice violence, the recent murder of a pro-life activist has been just a blip on the radar screen of the news media. Even Fox News has drooped the story, failing to report the thousands of threats, assaults, attacks, and illegal activities by pro-choice and abortion activists. Below is some historical perspective on just how sleezy the abortion industry really is. A little effort by the news medias – INCLUDING FOX , Glenn Beck, and Bill O’Reilly- would blow the lid off the illegal activities going on under the guise of “Reproductive Rights”!
Here are a few more examples:
Unsuspecting Ghanaian abortion patient, Eunice Agabgaa entered Y&P Medical (abortion) Clinic in New York. Dr. Abram Zelikman allegedly left the clinic while Eunice was in recovery from an abortion Zelikman had performed. Unfortunately the abortion was so bad, it resulted in her death. A friend who was present at the clinic testified that she pleaded with the clinic staff to call paramedics once she noticed Eunice’s bloodied body and poor vital signs. her friend stated, ” I felt if I hadn’t been there they would have wrapped her dead body and thrown it in the garbage.“. New York Newsday 7/9/89
The California Medical Board , investigated actions by abortion doc: Dr. Tati Okereke, A/K/A High Street Medical. In 1982, Dr. Okereke was accused of fondling a female patients breast “without medical justification”. He was also accused of engaging in sexual intercourse with her without her consent. This lovely abortion doctor was also accused of injecting patients with anesthetics , then engaging in sexual intercourse without the permission of the woman. ( Lovely defender of “reproductive rights, huh?). One woman testified to the medical board that she could not move any muscles during this ordeal, but just kept crying “What are you doing?” Another patient testified that after Okereke examined her vagina that he licked his finger. She said the doctor tried to pay her off to keep her quiet following the incident. Okereke’s Medical License was revoked in November of 1989. (SOURCE: California Medical Board case #11593)
In March of 1993, Abortion doctor Nareshkumar Patel of Shawnee, Oklahoma was accused of Forcible Oral Sodomy and sexual battery by a patient he was treating after hours in his clinic. Patel was also the focus of a controversy in 1992 when several aborted fetuses from his clinic were found partially burned in an open field owned by Patel. Officials could not cite any law that prohibited the burning of aborted fetuses in that manner and those charges were dropped. (SOURCE: The Daily Oklahoman 5/28/93 Oklahoma Medical Board Case # 90-09-1129)
The Mississippi Board of Medical Licensure revoked the license of abortionist, Milan D. Chepko in 1991. Dr. Chepko, who performed abortions at the New Women Medical Center in Jackson, MS was indicted by a Federal Grand Jury (Case # J89-00064 W) involving interstate transportation of a VHS cassette showing minors engaging in sexually explicit conduct. The tape contained scenes with children as young as four years old in sexual conduct with adult males and females. One incident allegedly involved children and adults engaged in sodomy. ( SOURCE: Jackson Herald 9/30/89 and Mississippi Board of Medical Licensure vs. Milan Chepko.)
In 1990 the Florida Medical Board passed a disciplinary action against male abortion clinic nurse Barry A. Hill. Hill was employed at the Today’s Woman Medical Center of Coral Gables, FL , a South Florida abortion clinic chain owned by abortionist: Dr. Vladimar Rosenthal. On October 26, 1989 Florida’s Department of Health and Human Services inspector Diane Robie discovered two envelopes in the abortion clinic containing pictures of several women undressed with their legs apart. According to State Medical Board reports the perineal area was the focal point of the photographer. Hill, the abortion clinic’s anesthetists claimed ownership of the photographs. Former employees of the abortion clinic spoke to the Miami Herald where they stated they saw Hill fondling the breasts of several female patients while they were under anesthesia. The former abortion clinic employees told news reporters that they were fired by clinic owner Rosenthal after he heard them complaining to a National Abortion Federation Representative (the clinic was a member) of the conditions at the clinic and Mr. Hills activities. ( SOURCE: Florida Department of Professional Regulation Case # 89-010853 and Miami Herald 10-7-89.)
The Miami Herald in August of 1990 reported that abortion doctor Pravin Thakker was convicted of performing abortions on his former lovers without their consent. Thakker was also investigated by the Indiana Medical board for lewd and immoral conduct toward female patients under his care. On June 11,1991 a jury found Thakker guilty of two counts of battery, two counts of illegal abortion and two counts of criminal recklessness. Thakker was sentenced on July 31, 1991 to prison in the Indiana Department of Corrections. ( SOURCE: The Indiana Health Profession Bureau Case # 89 MLB 003.)
In 1987 the Tamarac, Florida police department began an investigation into allegations of sexual assault by abortion doctor Jeffrey Goldenberg. Dr. Goldenberg was employed by the University Women’s Center abortion clinic in Tamarac. Goldenberg was never tried on charges developed during investigations, because Goldenberg was killed in a traffic accident prior to trial. ( SOURCE: Florida Department of Professional Regulation case numbers -102532,73882,70744,75174,80918,85142, 94175, and 76, 95832, 102527, and 528,529,531,598, 103134 and 466,467,468,489, 103751 and 752,755, 867793,86772,32342,77112,86774,959320.)
The Minnesota Board of Medical Examiners suspended the license of abortionist: Dr. Hideo D. Mori, a past 18 year volunteer at Planned Parenthood in Austin Minnesota. Dr. Mori was found to have engaged in sexual misconduct with several of his female patients. The charges against Mori included, massaging the clitoris and vagina of a patient during pelvic exams, kissing the face neck and breasts of patients during exams and embracing a patient. Mori allegedly told one of his patients that she should have sex with her husband in front of him so he could observe and determine why the patient was not climaxing. (SOURCE: Minnesota Board of Medical Examiners vs. Hideo Mori.)
In 1983 abortion doc Nabil Ghali’s medical license in Kentucky was revoked following his conviction on four counts of unlawful sexual transaction with a minor. (A fourteen year old female neighbor) The victims younger sister also testified she has seen Ghali improperly touching a five year old child. In 1989 while Ghali was operating an abortion clinic in Florida and performing abortions in several other South Florida clinics, the state’s medical board began revocation procedures of his license due to falsification of his license application. Ghali was caught in Florida performing abortions in South Dade County. When Ghali later lost his license in Florida he moved to Ohio and continued to perform abortions. The State of Ohio after learning of Ghali’s history began revocation procedures. In February 1993 the Ohio Medical Board won an appeal upholding Ghali’s license revocation. In addition to Ghali’s sexual conduct he was involved in the death of at least one woman from an abortion procedure in Florida. ( SOURCE: Kentucky Medical Licensing Board case #190, State Medical Board of Ohio vs. Ghali’s, Florida Department of Health and Rehabilitative Services inspection reports, 1989, The Miami Herald Tropic Magazine September 17, 1989, Utah Medial Board)
Abortion Doctor Ronald Tauber had his Florida medical license suspended following the abortion related death of Gloria Small. In 1985 after moving to Michigan, Tauber’s license to practice osteopathic medicine in that state was revoked following his conviction of First Degree criminal sexual assault, and second degree criminal sexual conduct. Details of the case revealed that abortionist Tauber was convicted after the state proved he had forcibly transported a six year old girl in his car against her will. Tauber admitted exposing himself to the girl and placing her hand on his penis. He also lifted the child’s undergarment to expose her vulva. Tauber released the girl when she began to cry. Tauber was also cited for masturbating in his car outside a high school where young girls were exiting.. Tauber was released from prison on January 3, 1990 and his parole ended on August 15, 1991. Tauber was later licensed to practice by the state of New York in August of 1992.

Abortionist Chris Simpoulous of the American Women’s Clinic in Norfolk, VA was accused of scheduling dozens of women for abortions who were not pregnant. Simpoulous was arrested in July of 1984 following an attempted abortion on an undercover police woman who was not pregnant. (SOURCE: New York Times 7/28/84. )
In April of 1992, Abortionist Larry Thompson’s Nevada medical license was revoked. The Board of Medical Examiners of Nevada determined that while performing an abortion at The Women’s Place in North Las Vegas, Dr. Thompson lacerated the uterus of his patient. The board said Thompson failed to monitor the woman’s condition adequately, and the abortion clinic did not have adequate medical equipment. As a result of the laceration and inadequate care that followed the abortion patient died. Abortionist Thompson also failed to recognize the cause of the patients death, according to the state’s disciplinary action. (SOURCE: Nevada Board of Medical Examiners case # 8289.)
In February of 1993, New York abortion doc. Abu Hayat was convicted of performing an illegal third trimester abortion in which he ripped the child’s arm from its body in the abortion attempt. The child was later born alive and has recovered with just one arm. In addition to the above occurrence Dr. Hayat, (an individual member of the National Abortion Federation) was cited by the Medical Board for refusing to complete an abortion on a patient after he demanded an additional payment of $500. The woman left the abortion clinic bleeding and with an incomplete abortion when she told Hayat she could not pay the extra $500. (SOURCE: New York Times 2/23/93, New York Department of Health and Professional Conduct, and New York Times 1/22/91.)
In January 1993 police arrested the owner of Clinica Feminina de la Cominidad an abortion clinic in Orange County, CA after the suspicious death of a patient at the clinic. News reports alleged Alicia Ruiz Hanna a non-physician performed numerous abortions at the clinic. The body of one of the clinic patients was found outside in the parking lot. Clinic employees have stated that the patient, Angela Sanchez suffered complications and Ruiz refused to call for help and would not allow her employees to call either. Ruiz was caught stuffing the dead abortion patient’s body into the trunk of her car. (SOURCE: The Orange County Register August 24, 1993.)
Abortion doctor David Benjamin (A.K.A. Elysa Bonrouhi) was implicated in charges of negligent homicide and tampering with physical evidence following the death of Guadalupe Negron. Police reports said that Negron was bleeding profusely and complaining of pain following her 2nd trimester abortion at the Metro Women’s Clinic in Corona, Queens New York. Benjamin ordered the patient to be cleaned up and began an abortion on another patient. Benjamin delayed calling an ambulance to transport Ms. Negron and attempted emergency treatment in such a negligent manner that Ms. Negron was pronounced dead shortly after her arrival at a local hospital.

Filmaker, James O’Keefe, has uncovered corruption in the ACORN organization. His undercover films have been blasted all over the cable news and internet blogs, exposing ACORN’s callous views of child sex trafficking and illegal prostitution rings. But O’Keefe was involved in a former undercover investigation involving tax payer dollars of hundreds of millions a year to an organization which covers for child sexual abuse !
That organization is PLANNED PARENTHOOD. And that investigation was done with another brave woman – Lila Rose.
James O’Keefe is a 25 year-old Rutgers graduate and a veteran of Live Action films, the group led by UCLA student Lila Rose, 20, which began a series of sting operations in order to uncover a culture of corruption rife within the abortion industry.
In 2007, O’Keefe posed as a 23-year old “boyfriend” accompanying Rose, also posing as his 15-year-old “girlfriend,” in another sting that showed a Los Angeles Planned Parenthood staffer offering them advice as to how to arrange for the abortion and cover-up the statutory rape.
Rose later developed this operation into a nationwide sting in which she showed that Planned Parenthood staffers were willing to cover up the statutory rape of 14 year-old girl by her 30-year-old boyfriend.
One of the Advocate’s video came out at the same time that Planned Parenthood’s Southwest Ohio Region faces a lawsuit from another rape victim who was forced by her father to have sex with him during the time she was 13-18 years of age and an abortion at age 16. Lawyers for the victim have accused Planned Parenthood’s “don’t ask, don’t tell” policy for perpetuating her sexual molestation until she finally told a basketball coach, who then informed the authorities.
The bold investigation by Lila Rose is reminiscent of the exposé by Life Dynamics, in which a woman posing as a 13-year old impregnated by a 22-year-old made 800 calls to abortion facilities across the United States. 91% of the facilities that admitted that a crime had been committed agreed to conceal it. Of those abortion clinics called, many were Planned Parenthoods.
Rose and O’Keefe also investigated allegations that Planned Parenthood is racist:
In a written from President/CEO, Christine R. Charbonneau,statement, Planned Parenthood has denied that they are racist:
“I must admit I had a palm-in-forehead moment last month when an anti-choice group from Southern California released a tape of what sounds like a Planned
Parenthood employee accepting a donation over the phone from an overtly racist donor. Naturally, the right wing radio talk show hosts had a field day
with this. One of them actually posed this question to his audience: “Is Planned Parenthood racist or just morally bankrupt?”
We do not accept money from people with racist motivations, no matter how much money they wish to donate.“
Oh, Really ???? Guess you’d best talk to your former President, Faye Watteltonn about that one.
Although ACORN has received $54 million of taxpayer dollars over the years, Planned Parenthood receives $1 MILLION dollars per day – Of tax payer dollars, which they can use to abort Black Babies ! WHERE IS THE OUTRAGE ???? WHERE IS THE MEDIA ???
Planned Parenthood also risks losing $280- million in government funding, primarily through Title X funds, and the abortion provider’s 2004-2005 annual report showed that from an $882 million income they made $63 million in profits.

OWOSSO – Police searching the home of an alleged double murderer Friday found several weapons and nearly 10,000 rounds of ammunition.
Owosso Director of Public Safety Mike Compeau said officers searched Harlan Drake’s residence at 5011/2 S. Shiawassee Friday afternoon following the murders of James Pouillon, 63, and Mike Fuoss, 61. Drake is accused of both shooting deaths.
“We were looking to see (with the search) if there were any notes, diaries,” Compeau said. “There were no diaries, but we did find five additional guns; shotguns, .22s – no assault rifles.”
Drake allegedly shot Pouillon about 7:20 a.m. Friday as Pouillon stood across the street from Owosso High protesting abortion. Fuoss was shot at his office, also sometime Friday morning.
Saturday, Drake, who was lodged in the Shiawassee County Jail, attempted to commit suicide by cutting his arm. The suspect apparently used glass from a shattered television set to slash him arm.
Prosecutor Randy Colbry refused to discuss Drake’s status this morning.
However, Sheriff George Braidwood said Drake was returned to the county jail late Saturday.
“He really did a number,” Braidwood commented on Drake’s wound.
Police found three handguns – two .22s and a .45 – in Drake’s pickup truck when he was arrested at home about 8:30 a.m.
Compeau said Drake, who is married, was a truck driver, but noted stories about Drake being out of state until recently were unconfirmed.
“I had heard that, but I can’t confirm it,” he said.
Compeau also reiterated that there was no “hit list” as some rumors have speculated.
“It was in his head,” Compeau said. “There was no written list. He had three people in his head.”
The third intended victim, Realtor James Howe, was not attacked. He and his family left town over the weekend.
In addition to Owosso police and the Shiawassee County Sheriff’s Office, members of the Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms Bureau and the U.S. Marshals service were involved this week. Compeau said the marshals made inquiries because of the potential of a hate crime.
“We have the big thing taken care of. There’s a lot of fine detail work to take care of now,” he said.
Bizzare Czar: Cass Sunstein several times has quoted approvingly from an author who likened animals to slaves and argued an adult dog or a horse is more rational than a human infant and should, therefore, be granted similar rights.
“You’ve heard a reference to Bentham, so let’s listen to him, shall we,” he begins in the video.
He then quotes from Bentham’s 1789 primer, “Introduction to Principals of Morals and Legislation,” written just after slaves had been freed by the French but were still held captive in the British dominions:
“The day may come, when the rest of the animal creation may acquire those rights which never could have been withholden from them but by the hand of tyranny. The French have already discovered that the blackness of the skin is no reason why a human being should be abandoned without redress to the caprice of a tormentor,” Sunstein states, quoting Bentham.
Sunstein continues quoting the author: “A full-grown horse or dog, is beyond comparison a more rational, as well as a more conversable animal, than an infant of a day or a week or even a month, old. But suppose the case were otherwise.“
The rest of Bentham’s sentence, not captured in the video, continued, “what would it avail? The question is not, can they (animals) reason or can they talk? But, can they suffer?”
While the YouTube video offers only a brief sound bite with no context, a WOrldNEtDaily review of Sunstein’s academic writings find he used the same verses from Bentham to push for animal rights.
In the footnotes to a 2002 academic paper for Harvard University, “The Rights of Animals: A Very Short Primer,” Sunstein expresses his approval of Bentham’s arguments:
“I suggest that Bentham and Mill were not wrong to offer an analogy between current uses of animals and human slavery,” he wrote.
Several other works by Sunstein, including his books, quote approvingly of Bentham’s statements comparing adult dogs and horses to human infants.
In the Harvard paper, Sunstein even suggests animals could be granted the right to sue humans in court.
“We could even grant animals a right to bring suit without insisting that animals are in some general sense ‘persons,’ or that they are not property,” he wrote

Kudos to the writer from this BLOG AFROCONSERVATIVE for stating the following:
Jimmy Carter, the greatest president who ever lived, has said that the opposition to Obama is largely due to racism.
Members of the left use race, gender, and other “victim status” as a way to stifle dialogue about the issues du jour. I am not negating the fact that there is real racism. For example, James O’keefe (the young man responsible for exposing ACORN) exposed the blatant racism of the Planned Parenthood organization. Just in case you didn’t know, he called Planned Parenthood to donate money to them and requested that they make sure to use his money to abort a “Black baby” because “Blacks have way too many kids”. None of the operators working for Planned Parenthood objected to this, some even explicitly concurred. Mr. O’Keefe used this tactic to expose the blatant genocide (promoted by the left) of Black babies via abortion and those who use the euphemism “choice”. If Okeefe was really a racist, Margaret Sanger (founder of Planned Parenthood) would be giving him kudos.
So, in summation there’s modern day racism.
Exhibit A: Planned Parenthood.
1. On November 4, 2008, 44 percent of White voters voted for Obama. If it wasn’t for the white majority, Obama wouldn’t have become president. Mr. Carter, did the White people who voted for Obama magically grow racist brain cells since January of this year?
2. Secondly, Mr. Carter, is it at all possible that the people of this nation are upset because our president is dismantling the very fabric that made this the Greatest nation on earth?
3. Also, Mr. Carter, when constantly reminding us that Obama is “Black” and people don’t like him because of it, don’t you think you are representing the exact opposite of Martin Luther King’s dream? Just in case you don’t remember, Mr. Carter, Martin Luther King dreamed for a day where people would be judged based on the contents of their character, not the color of their skin.
4. Is it also possible, sir, that those of you who are constantly evoking images of race, are the ones who are truly fixated on this issue?
5. Finally, Mr. Carter, I am a 25 year old Black Woman–so I know what it feels like to be “prejudged” because of my ethnicity, race, gender, and even my age. Am I racist against my own “people” too- because I oppose a large majority of Obama’s domestic agenda?
Mr. Carter, your comments are quite incendiary and actually pretty offensive. Your comments are especially offensive to me and other Americans who don’t really care if someone is White or Black but concerned about a Communist versus a Capitalist. You know, the difference between Liberty and Tyranny. I know members of the left probably excuse anything that’s said by their camp, but, please think before you speak.

While we are all focusing on H.R. 3200, the House Democrats’ health care plan, we should at least glance at H.R. 3221, the House Democrats’ plan to kill off higher education access. (PDF)
The legislation is opposed by many major universities including Notre Dame, among others. Basically, the bill would shut down all private providers of student loans, drive up costs for universities, and become a bureaucratic nightmare for institutions of higher learning. The professors may be leftists, but the administrators have to pay attention to the bottom line.
The Director of Student Financial Strategies at University of Notre Dame warns in a letter to Congressman Miller, “Any legislation that eliminates choice and competition and mandates that all institutions adopt an all-government run program for the 2010/11 academic year is filled with immense risk and would create massive confusion.”
Get that? The Democrats want an “all-government run program” to provide people access to money to pay for college. And if they do that, then they can force universities to comply with lots of new rules or deny students the right to use federal student loans to go to particular colleges.
But it gets better. Boy does it ever get better.
§ 343 of the plan creates a Green Schools Czar. No kidding. A Green Schools Czar (and committee naturally) would examine the impact of more environmentally friendly universities and find ways to create even more environmentally friendly universities. Oh . . . I have an idea . . . if students need financial assistance and they are forced to go through the feds, the feds can simply tell universities to become compliant or they won’t let students use their student loans to go there.
What is so funny is that §312 of Obama’s stimulus plan also sent money to schools to become more environmentally friendly. That was the carrot. Well, this new law will become the stick.
U.S. Sen. Russ Feingold, D-Middleton, is urging President Barack Obama to be more open and transparent about the work of appointed policymakers.
In a letter he sent Tuesday to President Barack Obama, Feingold said constituents raised concerns during the senator’s statewide listening sessions about the so-called czar positions.
“Specifically, I ask that you identify these individuals’ roles and responsibilities, and provide the judgment(s) of your legal advisers as to whether and how these positions are consistent with the Appointments Clause,” Feingold wrote.
According to Article II, Section 2 of the U.S. Constitution, the Senate must confirm all presidential appointments to federal offices. Feingold called the measure an important part of Congressional oversight of the Executive Branch.

1600 Pennsylvania Avenue, NW
Washington, D.C. 20500
Dear Mr. President:
From the beginning of your administration, you have made an admirable commitment to transparency and open government. You showed the strength of your commitment by sending a memorandum to the heads of executive departments and agencies within a week of your inauguration, stating: “My administration will take appropriate action, consistent with law and policy, to disclose information rapidly in forms that the public can readily find and use.”
As you know, there has been much discussion about your decisions to create and assign apparently significant policy-making responsibilities to White House and other executive positions; many of the persons filling these positions have come to be referred to in the media and even within your administration as policy “czars.” I heard firsthand about this issue on several occasions from my constituents in recent town hall meetings in Wisconsin.
The Constitution gives the Senate the duty to oversee the appointment of Executive officers through the Appointments Clause in Article II, section 2. The Appointments Clause states that the President “shall nominate, and by and with the advice and consent of the Senate, shall appoint ambassadors, other public ministers and consuls, judges of the Supreme Court, and all other officers of the United States, whose appointments are not herein otherwise proved for, and which shall be established by law.” This clause is an important part of the constitutional scheme of separation of powers, empowering the Senate to weigh in on the appropriateness of significant appointments and assisting in its oversight of the Executive Branch.
As a member of the Senate with the duty to oversee executive appointments and as the Chairman of the Senate Constitution Subcommittee, I respectfully urge you to disclose as much information as you can about these policy advisors and “czars.” Specifically, I ask that you identify these individuals’ roles and responsibilities, and provide the judgment(s) of your legal advisors as to whether and how these positions are consistent with the Appointments Clause. I hope that this information will help address some of the concerns that have been raised about new positions in the White House and elsewhere in the Executive Branch, and will inform any hearing that the Subcommittee holds on this topic.
Thank you for considering my views on this important matter. I very much appreciate your commitment to transparency and open government and look forward to your prompt response.
On this week’s episode of The Shrine, DJ 4th Wurld invites the perspectives of Dr. Ray Hagins, Dr. Alveda King, Paris Hatcher, and Heidi Williamson into the discussion regarding the film Maafa 21 and the agenda of eugenics. A very intense discussion ensued that you don’t want to miss out on.
“The injection of race into the debate surrounding the President’s healthcare plan is a red herring. It only serves to deflect from the real life concerns connected with his health care proposal. After the name calling and the racist pejorative used to quiet opposition, it is still apparent at the end of the day abortion, rationing and end of life counseling in this health care plan is unacceptable and dangerous for all Americans, white, black, brown or otherwise,” said Pastor Stephen Broden, Senior Pastor Fair Park Bible Fellowship and spokesperson for the Black Pro-life Movement, and for the documentary at Maafa21.com.
“It is sad to be reminded that people in power or who have served powerfully are refusing to be educated regarding the issues of Black Genocide or are seemingly seeking to “dumb down” the community’s knowledge of the abortion industries “target audience” since its inception. What is even harder to digest is the blatant disregard for truth by politicians who instill plantation politics to disarm the Black Community. Be the first to yell “RACIST” and the Black Community will follow you. Such is non-sense! The Black Community is smarter than that,” said Pastor Dion Jackson, Senior Pastor of Chosen Vessels Christian Church, a leading Faith-Based Church Organization in Alameda, CA.
Dr. Alveda King, Pastoral Associate of Priests for Life and niece of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., responded today to charges by former President Jimmy Carter and others that opposition to the health care plan backed by President Obama is racist in nature.
“Congressman Joe Wilson was disrespectful and he committed a breach of ethics by yelling out during President Obama’s speech. He apologized. The race card rebuttal is a smokescreen to deflect our attention from the issues at hand. We all know how to push the emotional hot buttons, and we know where many of the bodies are buried, including over 50 million aborted babies, one third of whom are Black. Pro-choice politicians should check the facts about the racist eugenics genocidal practice of abortion before calling someone a racist,” said Dr. Alveda King, Priests for Life Director of African American Outreach and Founder of King for America, a Faith Based Social Justice organization.
“Civil rights of all Americans, born and unborn is a possible dream. We have written President Obama and members of Congress to ask that they “Define the Dream for America’s Health Care Agenda” by serving women, babies, and the sick and elderly. This is why we are asking the Justice Department to investigate the racist practices of Planned in their study on discrimination in America.”
Members of the Black Prolife Movement will be in Washington, DC next week to address the health care concerns of the African American Community, and to follow up on an open letter they wrote to President Obama in August addressing health care questions.
In a fundraising letter for her husband’s US Senate campaign in February 2004, Michelle Obama called partial birth abortion “a legitimate medical procedure.”
With Politico reporting yesterday Michelle “plans a packed autumn that aides say will include a ‘dedicated focus’ on health insurance reform,” will she be pitching mandated public and private insurance coverage of partial birth abortions?
Oh, I know pba is now illegal, but Michelle also claimed in that fundraising letter a ban against it was “clearly unconstitutional and must be overturned.” Michelle could add relegalizing pba to her healthcare pitch.
Rasmussen is reporting that a majority of Americans favor a ban against abortion in Health Care:
The latest Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey finds that 48% believe any government-subsidized health care plan should be prohibited from covering abortion procedures. Thirteen percent (13%) believe such plans should be required to cover abortions, and 32% favor a more neutral approach with no requirements in either direction.
Among those who currently support passage of the legislation, 22% want a prohibition banning abortion coverage and 22% want a mandate requiring such coverage. Forty-seven percent (47%) of the plan’s supporters prefer the neutral approach, and nine percent (9%) are not sure.
Among those who oppose the plan, 72% favor a prohibition against coverage of abortions while five percent (5%) hold the opposite view.
48% Want Abortion Coverage Banned in Health Care Plan
Will US Government “Panels” Dictate that you are “Terminally sedated”?
FROM the UK Daily Telegraph Sentenced to death on the NHS
Patients with terminal illnesses are being made to die prematurely under an NHS scheme to help end their lives, leading doctors have warned.
By Kate Devlin, Medical Correspondent/
Published: 10:00PM BST 02 Sep 2009
In a letter to The Daily Telegraph, a group of experts who care for the terminally ill claim that some patients are being wrongly judged as close to death.
Under NHS guidance introduced across England to help doctors and medical staff deal with dying patients, they can then have fluid and drugs withdrawn and many are put on continuous sedation until they pass away.
But this approach can also mask the signs that their condition is improving, the experts warn.
As a result the scheme is causing a “national crisis” in patient care, the letter states. It has been signed palliative care experts including Professor Peter Millard, Emeritus Professor of Geriatrics, University of London, Dr Peter Hargreaves, a consultant in Palliative Medicine at St Luke’s cancer centre in Guildford, and four others.
“Forecasting death is an inexact science,”they say. Patients are being diagnosed as being close to death “without regard to the fact that the diagnosis could be wrong.
“As a result a national wave of discontent is building up, as family and friends witness the denial of fluids and food to patients.”
The warning comes just a week after a report by the Patients Association estimated that up to one million patients had received poor or cruel care on the NHS.
The scheme, called the Liverpool Care Pathway (LCP), was designed to reduce patient suffering in their final hours.
Developed by Marie Curie, the cancer charity, in a Liverpool hospice it was initially developed for cancer patients but now includes other life threatening conditions.
It was recommended as a model by the National Institute for Health and Clinical Excellence (Nice), the Government’s health scrutiny body, in 2004.
It has been gradually adopted nationwide and more than 300 hospitals, 130 hospices and 560 care homes in England currently use the system.
Under the guidelines the decision to diagnose that a patient is close to death is made by the entire medical team treating them, including a senior doctor.
They look for signs that a patient is approaching their final hours, which can include if patients have lost consciousness or whether they are having difficulty swallowing medication.
However, doctors warn that these signs can point to other medical problems.
Patients can become semi-conscious and confused as a side effect of pain-killing drugs such as morphine if they are also dehydrated, for instance.
When a decision has been made to place a patient on the pathway doctors are then recommended to consider removing medication or invasive procedures, such as intravenous drips, which are no longer of benefit.
If a patient is judged to still be able to eat or drink food and water will still be offered to them, as this is considered nursing care rather than medical intervention.
Dr Hargreaves said that this depended, however, on constant assessment of a patient’s condition.
He added that some patients were being “wrongly” put on the pathway, which created a “self-fulfilling prophecy” that they would die.
He said: “I have been practising palliative medicine for more than 20 years and I am getting more concerned about this “death pathway” that is coming in.
“It is supposed to let people die with dignity but it can become a self-fulfilling prophecy.
“Patients who are allowed to become dehydrated and then become confused can be wrongly put on this pathway.”
He added: “What they are trying to do is stop people being overtreated as they are dying.
“It is a very laudable idea. But the concern is that it is tick box medicine that stops people thinking.”
He said that he had personally taken patients off the pathway who went on to live for “significant” amounts of time and warned that many doctors were not checking the progress of patients enough to notice improvement in their condition.
Prof Millard said that it was “worrying” that patients were being “terminally” sedated, using syringe drivers, which continually empty their contents into a patient over the course of 24 hours.
In 2007-08 16.5 per cent of deaths in Britain came about after continuous deep sedation, according to researchers at the Barts and the London School of Medicine and Dentistry, twice as many as in Belgium and the Netherlands.
“If they are sedated it is much harder to see that a patient is getting better,” Prof Millard said.
Katherine Murphy, director of the Patients Association, said: “Even the tiniest things that happen towards the end of a patient’s life can have a huge and lasting affect on patients and their families feelings about their care.
“Guidelines like the LCP can be very helpful but healthcare professionals always need to keep in mind the individual needs of patients.
“There is no one size fits all approach.”
A spokesman for Marie Curie said: “The letter highlights some complex issues related to care of the dying.
“The Liverpool Care Pathway for the Dying Patient was developed in response to a societal need to transfer best practice of care of the dying from the hospice to other care settings.
“The LCP is not the answer to all the complex elements of this area of health care but we believe it is a step in the right direction.”
The pathway also includes advice on the spiritual care of the patient and their family both before and after the death.
It has also been used in 800 instances outside care homes, hospices and hospitals, including for people who have died in their own homes.
The letter has also been signed by Dr Anthony Cole, the chairman of the Medical Ethics Alliance, Dr David Hill, an anaesthetist, Dowager Lady Salisbury, chairman of the Choose Life campaign and Dr Elizabeth Negus a lecturer in English at Barking University.
A spokesman for the Department of Health said: “People coming to the end of their lives should have a right to high quality, compassionate and dignified care.
“The Liverpool Care Pathway (LCP) is an established and recommended tool that provides clinicians with an evidence-based framework to help delivery of high quality care for people at the end of their lives.
“Many people receive excellent care at the end of their lives. We are investing £286 million over the two years to 2011 to support implementation of the End of Life Care Strategy to help improve end of life care for all adults, regardless of where they live.”
HELPING terminally ill and incurably disabled patients to commit suicide is set to be decriminalised in Britain under guidance to be issued this week.
Those who assist a friend or relative to end their lives on compassionate grounds will not be prosecuted, under guidelines to be announced by Keir Starmer QC, the director of public prosecutions.
However, it will still be a crime to act as “ringleader” or “organiser” of the death of a person who has been “vulnerable to manipulation”.
The guidelines are expected to make clear the difference between someone “assisting” and someone “encouraging” a suicide.
Since 1961 assisting a suicide has been punishable by up to 14 years’ imprisonment, but although in the past decade more than 100 terminally ill or incurable Britons have travelled to suicide clinics abroad, there have been no prosecutions of those assisting them. The new guidelines will apply to assisted suicides in Britain and overseas. The Crown Prosecution Service said there would be no new legislation.
It is not yet known how Starmer will deal with the problem of financial gain for the person assisting the suicide.
FACTS: Most people are not aware that many of the exact same people who originally founded the idea of legalized euthanasia in the US, were the same ones who were on the Board of Planned Parenthood Founder, Margaret Sanger’s American Birth Control League (ABCL). To examine this closer – all you have to do is get a copy of the New York Times from January 17,1938.
In 1938, just a few years prior to the American Birth Control League (ABCL) changing it’s name to Planned Parenthood, which today is the largest abortion provider in the nation, a group of American Eugenics Society Members and Sanger’s American Birth Control League (ABCL) members got together and formed the National Society for the Legalization of Euthanasia. Heading this pro-euthanasia panel was a man by the name of Charles F. Potter who, in 1938 was also on the ABCL Committee for Planned Parenthood according to a February 1938, New York Times story. Potter was the leader of the First Humanist Society and organized this entire pro-euthanasia group.
Also on this pro-euthanasia board was: Sidney Goldstein who sat on the American Birth Control League’s National Council and later was on Planned Parenthood’s Board of Directors. Another member was Frank H. Hankins who was a managing editor for Planned Parenthood founder, Margaret Sanger’s newsletter called the Birth Control Review. Hankins was also an American Eugenics Society member. Another more famous name who was sat on the advisory board of this pro-euthanasia panel, was Julian Huxley, who was a later recipient of a Planned Parenthood award.
Mrs. F. Robertson Jones was also on this panel, she was an ABCL President, wrote for Sanger’s Birth Control Review , was an honorary board member of Planned Parenthood-World Population and a Board of Director of Planned Parenthood. ABCL Citizen’s Committee for Planned Parenthood member, Dr. Foster Kennedy, was also on the pro-euthanasia panel. American Eugenics Society Member, Clarence Cook Little, who was the President of Margaret Sanger’s American Birth Control League (ABCL), at the same time he was on this pro-euthanasia panel. American Eugenics Society founder and friend to Margaret Sanger, Leon Whitney, also sat on this panel. Whitney advocated forced sterilization, was published in Sanger’s Birth Control Review, and openly praised Adolf Hitler for his Nazi effort. Planned Parenthood founder, Margaret Sanger was not on this panel, but she was a member of the American Eugenics Society and many of their members were on this panel. Sanger admitted that she gave a speech to the Klu Klu Klan and in her autobiography , she bragged that she received a dozen invites from the Klan for further speeches. Planned Parenthood is the nation’s largest Population Control and some would say “Eugenics Control” organization and they receive millions of dollars from the US GOVERNMENT. Care to ask why????
It is important to know this because the “population Control” , “Zero Population Growth”, “Planned Parenthood” crowds are buzzing around this administration and have been heavily involved in government decision making for years. In fact, Sanger’s Planned Parenthood organization receives over $1 million dollars a day from the Government to sterilize and abort this so-called over-populated society. Planned Parenthood’s own research arm, the Alan Guttmacher Institute , reports that Black Minorities receive 5 abortions to every 1 white baby aborted in this nation. Is this coincidence or a form of racist and eugenic targeting? Remember that when they removed the GOVERNMENT Eugenics Courts, they appear to have replaced them with Federal Funding of Population Control Groups, like Planned Parenthood. see more on this in a film called: Maafa21.
President Obama claims that the tax payer will have to purchase health insurance, because it is the responsible thing to do.
Under this mandate the gov’t is forcing you to spend money – penalizing you if you don’t.
Obama – told the Sunday shows this week that forcing everyone, even healthy young people to purchase Health Insurance, is not a tax increase,
but, “ it says that we are not GOING TO HAVE OTHER PEOPLE CARRYING THE BURDENS FOR YOU !!!!!”
So the New 2009 Obamservation Dictionary’s Definition of a Tax Increase is: RESPONSIBILITY
Remember America – Obama said that we are “not GOING TO HAVE OTHER PEOPLE CARRYING THE BURDENS FOR YOU”
Net neutrality is a concept that all services and content on the Internet should be treated equally. Proposed new rules would seek to prevent Internet service providers from acting as gatekeepers.
Examples of how Internet service providers and wireless phone providers have allegedly acted as gatekeepers of services:
– Comcast allegedly blocked a video-and-music sharing site called BitTorrent.
– Verizon Wireless allegedly rejected a text messaging program from NARAL Pro-Choice America, an abortion-rights group. The program would have allowed people to sign up for text messages from NARAL.
– The FCC is examining whether AT&T and Apple deliberately blocked Google’s voice application for the iPhone. Google Voice gives users one phone number that they can connect to their home, office and mobile phones.
– Skype has complained that many wireless service providers have rejected its Internet voice service. For example, iPhone users can’t connect to the 3G network and use Skype; they must also be linked to the Web through a WiFi connection.
YouTube has been censoring pro-life videos for a while and I do not see them in your list above.
To name one instance – YouTube censored the Undercover Videos of Lila Rose and yes, James O’Keefe ( ACORN Film maker) who proved that the Nation’s Largest Abortion Provider, Planed Parenthood, who sucks over $1 Millions Dollars PER DAY and $350 Millions Dollars PER YEAR from the taxpayer, is covering for statutory rape and possible sexual abuse of minors.
According to Lila’s Live Action Films, “YouTube has unfairly censored two Live Action videos in what appears to be an act of discrimination against our viewpoint. We have carefully laid out the case below why each video that was removed was wrongly banned. We hope you read this and join us in action against this bias.”
Live Action Petition to YouTube:
Dear YouTube:
We are concerned that YouTube staff is censoring videos based on ideology, despite YouTube’s claim to uphold fair standards.
The following links provide the background and case why YouTube should restore our videos:
The Case Against YouTube’s Removal of Live Action’s “Alabama Investigative Video“
http://liveaction.org/index.php/projects/youtube/83
The Case Against YouTube’s Removal of Live Action’s “Planned Parenthood Counseling Lie“
http://liveaction.org/index.php/projects/youtube/84
We ask that YouTube will restore their customer’s trust and live up to its own rules by doing the following:
1. Promptly reinstate both banned videos
2. Remove the “strike” against the account “liveactionfilms”
3. Assure Live Action and the YouTube’s community that YouTube is
truly opposed to ideological censorship and is taking steps to prevent this from happening again.
4. Provide Live Action with an email and phone contact representative at YouTube to ensure that any potential future issues are resolved promptly
In one of the Video’s, Live Action gave this timeline:
HISTORY
June 30th, 2009: Live Action uploads the “Alabama Investigative Video“
July 8th, 2009: YouTube notifies Live Action via email that they are going to remove our video within 48 hours if we do not remove it.
July 9th, 2009: Live Action replies to the YouTube email saying that “...we are requesting for you to let us know exactly where in our video we violate the privacy of an individual.” (see full email)
July 10th, 2009: YouTube removes the “Alabama Investigative Video” July 22nd, 2009: YouTube still has not responded to Live Action over this matter.
YOUTUBE’S STANDARD
YouTube does not permit video that shows the identifiable face or full name of an individual per their policy listed below. We have uploaded many investigative videos (that are still live) where we have obscured the face and disclosed only the clinic workers last name. In all of these cases, YouTube has allowed these videos to remain live.
WHY THE VIDEO MEETS YOUTUBE’S STANDARD
We did not disclose audio or video that “uniquly identifies” the person in the video. We did not show any identifiable images, in fact, our video showed no images of any persons that did not give consent to be in the video. The audio in the video does not by voice or content of the voice, uniquly identifiy the person involved. Finally, no full names were disclosed, only first names as was consistent with our pervious (and still live) videos which have received hundreds of thousands of views without removal.
BE PART OF THE SOLUTION!
Contact YouTube and ask them why the “LiveActionFilms” video was removed.

ROCKFORD, Illinois, September 22, 2009 (LifeSiteNews.com) – Pro-lifers who frequent the Northern Illinois Women’s Center in Rockford have published a video casting light on the mocking, hateful, and grotesque signs and images that are a regular fixture in the windows of the abortion facility, which has earned a reputation as one of the most openly anti-life and anti-Christian abortuaries in America.
“We feel this video is especially important at this point in time where some in the Church claim pro-lifers are judgmental,” remarked Rockford pro-life veteran Kevin Rilott. “If they would honestly take a look at this kind of open hatred and mocking of God and killing of the ‘least of his people’ we could hope they would join us in praying and working for an end to what may be the greatest evil the world has ever faced.”
Some windows display images mocking Jesus Christ or other Christian religious symbols, while others continue to accumulate derisive signage that often targets specific pro-lifers among the stalwart crowd who prayerfully protest the mill.
Still other windows once displayed rubber chickens hanging from nooses. These displays have now been removed after they began driving away customers in the predominantly black community.
Area pro-lifers have also testified to frequent verbal and physical abuse from attackers, either directly or indirectly associated with the abortion facility.
An abortion employee in July continued the pattern of abuse by allegedly ramming into a pro-lifer with his car before driving away. In a tribute to the history of vehicular aggression displayed by the facility’s employees, one window sports a “speed limit 55″ sign complete with a human skull.
In another incident, Keith Sterkeson, a local abortion supporter, screamed obscenities into the faces of the protesting pro-life advocates with a pitbull in tow, while the owner of the abortion facility, Wayne Webster, watched over the CCTV system from inside the building. Webster eventually warned Sterkeson over a loudspeaker that the police were on their way, after he heard the call coming through a police scanner
“Hey Keith, this a**hole just called the cops,” Webster can be heard saying in a video of the incident. “I just heard it coming over the scanner. They called the cops because Keith is down here, yelling and screaming at people, and he has a pit bull with him and he’s threatening people. You’re not acting any crazier than those other a**holes (the pro-life activists).”
Another sign in a widow of the building celebrated the abortion facility’s 50,000th abortion with a sign that read “NIWC: 50,000; JC: 50“; implying that Jesus Christ (JC) through pro-life ministry had only saved fifty of the children slated for abortion at the Northern Illinois Women’s Center (NIWC).
“For years at this abortion mill we have seen a steady stream of vicious personal attacks, hatred for God, bigotry, racism, ridiculing people with HIV, and mocking of human life displayed in the windows of a so-called medical facility,” said Rockford pro-life advocate George Lambert.
Lambert lamented that “the local Rockford paper refuses to report about these attacks and our city council remains silent.” “No wonder Rockford has one of the highest crime rates in the state,” he said. “When God and life are under a vicious assault and our city leaders remain silent we will reap what we sow.”
“It’s amazing to think that if Obamacare passes, our tax dollars will be going to pay for this kind of hatred and bigotry,” added pro-lifer Donna Modica.
Bugarin accomplices sentenced
Women who helped with illegal abortions get probation, community service
California Catholic Daily 9/24/2009
Two accomplices of Bertha Bugarin, who is serving a prison sentence for performing illegal abortions in San Diego and Los Angeles counties, have been sentenced to three years probation and lengthy terms of community service for their roles in assisting Bugarin’s illicit activities at Clinica Medica para la Mujer de Hoy in Chula Vista.
Luz Catalina-Gomez was charged with four counts of “treating the sick/afflicted without a certificate,” while Paloma Yonna Solorzano-Rodriguez was accused of two counts of the same crime. Both women were also charged with a single count of grand theft. The alleged crimes occurred on various dates between February and March of 2007.
Catalina-Gomez was sentenced to three years formal probation, 350 hours of volunteer work service to be completed by Sept. 20, 2010, and 365 days in custody stayed pending successful completion of probation, Paul Levikow, Communications Director for the San Diego County District Attorney’s Office, told California Catholic Daily. The judge also ordered Catalina-Gomez to have no contact with Bertha or Raquel Bugarin and prohibited her from working in the medical field.
Solorzano-Rodriguez was sentenced to three years formal probation, 200 hours of volunteer work service to be completed by Sept. 20, 2010, and 365 days in custody stayed pending successful completion of probation. Solorzano-Rodriguez was also ordered to have no contact with the Bugarin sisters and not to seek employment in the medical field, Levikow said.
“Both defendants pleaded guilty on the day that jury trial was scheduled to begin,” said Levikow. “Defendants both pleaded guilty to all charges on the Information that pertained to them.”
San Diego Superior Court Judge Ted Weathers handed down the sentences in a deal reached between the judge and the defendants, said Levikow. “The People (DA’s office) did not take part in this deal.”
The two women worked for Bertha Bugarin, who earlier pleaded guilty to nine felony counts of performing abortions without a license at the Chula Vista clinic, just a few miles from the U.S.-Mexico border. The clinic targeted Spanish-speaking women from the border area. On April 24, Judge Charles Gill sentenced Bugarin to six years, eight months in prison. Bugarin’s sentence in the San Diego case will run concurrently with a three-year, four-month sentence handed down against her in January on similar charges in Los Angeles County.
“This criminal preyed on women in the Hispanic community and has now been held accountable,” said San Diego District Attorney Bonnie Dumanis in December 2008, when Bugarin pleaded guilty to the charges. “By passing herself off as a doctor, she put these women’s lives in serious danger.”
Bugarin’s sister, Raquel Bugarin, pleaded no contest to three counts of felony practicing medicine without a license in a plea bargain with the Los Angeles District Attorney’s Office. In exchange, the district attorney dismissed four other felony counts filed against her. Los Angeles County Superior Court Judge Sam Ohta sentenced Raquel Bugarin on Oct. 1, 2008 to three years formal probation, 500 hours of community service, and ordered her to pay $3,270 in restitution to six victims.
Bertha Bugarin advertised her Chula Vista clinic on Spanish-language television in San Diego and Tijuana. At least nine victims in the Chula Vista area came forward and identified Bugarin as the person who performed surgical and/or medical procedures on them, the San Diego district attorney said. One of Bugarin’s patients suffered severe complications and had to be hospitalized twice, and eventually delivered her baby prematurely, which lived for only three hours, said the district attorney. Another patient paid $500 for an abortion, but had to return to the office for a second procedure because the first abortion was unsuccessful, according to the district attorney.
Bugarin reportedly ran a cash-only business, and over a period of 18 years hired a long list of physicians to perform abortions who had a history of incompetence or negligence, many of whom had their licenses to practice medicine revoked, according to records on file at the California Medical Board. Apparently, when Bugarin ran out of licensed physicians to perform abortions, she decided to pose as a doctor and do them herself.
One of Bugarin’s abortionists, Laurence Reich, was a twice-convicted sex offender who molested and raped his abortion patients. Reich surrendered his license in 2006, but continued to work as an abortionist for Bugarin until his arrest in February, 2008.
Even after her arrest in a Los Angeles Police raid on 4 of her remaining 6 clinics, Bugarin continued to operate in San Diego County until her arrest there.
Bugarin pled guilty to 9 felony counts in San Diego County and is scheduled for sentencing there on Friday, February 6, 2009.
The Citizens for a Pro-Life Society (CPLS) say that their video depicting the Catholic funeral and burial ceremonies of abortion victims has been censored by the video-sharing site YouTube – which now has an established reputation for removing pro-life videos and issuing “warning strikes” against their owners’ accounts.
CPLS reports that YouTube pulled the original five-minute film “Requiem for the Disappeared” on August 29. The film shows the remains of 23 unborn children whose bodies were buried after being salvaged last year from trash dumpsters behind abortionist Alberto Hodari’s Womancare abortion clinic in Lathrup Village, MI., and abortionist Reginald Sharpe’s Women’s Advisory abortion clinic in Livonia, MI. The video is accompanied by the song “Tell Me Who I Am,” which was crafted for the video and produced by Mediatrix Records.
“Requiem for the Disappeared” is the third CPLS video removed by YouTube, who also issued a warning strike against the group’s account. YouTube indicated that the video was removed for violating the site’s prohibition against images “intended to be shocking, sensational or disrespectful.
According to the site’s guidelines: “if a video is particularly graphic or disturbing, it should be balanced with additional educational or documentary context and information.”
CPLS argues that the images of the children’s’ remains were given appropriate and respectful context, and were not intended to shock, saying the video was “obviously crafted to teach, to provoke thought, to provide a moral lesson.”
The group said it was considering legal action against YouTube.
“I feel strongly that we must call You Tube to responsibility,” said CPLS director Monica Migliorino Miller. “It’s obvious that pro-lifers are consistently discriminated against on this website.”
In August, YouTube removed a video (available here) published by Operation Rescue showing the abusive behavior of a man working for Nebraska abortionist LeRoy Carhart against a pro-lifer. YouTube indicated that the video inappropriately used the site as a “venue for things like predatory behavior, stalking, threats, harassment, intimidation, invading privacy, revealing other people’s personal information, and inciting others to commit violent acts.”
“I completely resent the outrageous and false notion that the video was in anyway abusive on our part,” said Operation Rescue’s Cheryl Sullenger. “The threats and intimidation shown in this video were made by the Carhart employee against the pro-life photographer, Larry Donlan. I posted the video with his permission so that the world could see the truth about the abuse and threats that pro-lifers are forced to endure.”
Earlier that month, Live Action Films launched a petition against YouTube’s attack against pro-life videos. Live Action has had several of its videos exposing controversial and illegal practices by Planned Parenthood pulled from the site.
“Youtube claims to be free of ideological censorship,” said Live Action Films president Lila Rose. “But they are clearly censoring an opinion they dislike, an opinion that goes against Planned Parenthood – which, as many are open about, has a good deal of influence in a lot of mainstream media, and now sadly in the new media, in YouTube.”

A monument in memory of “Victims of Abortion” apparently was vandalized late Saturday or early Sunday. It was pushed inward toward a pine tree a few yards east of the church.
Frazee Police Officer Tyler Trieglaff made a tentative effort to lift the top from the ground and it was clearly going to take some work to put it back into place near the sidewalk.
It was very clear that whatever adhesive compound held the granite marker in place was overwhelmed by brute force.
Locals voiced concern
After a Sunday service, “A parishioner came and told me it was tipped over,” related Fr. Xavier Ilango in a conversation Monday.
Actually, local law enforcement first got word also on the Sabbath, but a bit later.
“Two residents called to tell me about the damage,” Trieglaff stated.
One left a message on the office phone machine while he was on patrol, while the other phoned when he was present to take the call.
“It is good that people call. This is their community…the church is part of their life,” the officer added.
Many cases are solved through tips coming from phone calls or when residents stop the officers to give them information, he emphasized.
SATANISTS are recruiting members in Scotland through an online classifieds site.
The devil worshippers, who preach from Anton LaVey’s Satanic Bible, hold regular meetings involving ritualistic sacrifice.
Their advert on Gumtree, which is accompanied by a picture of a goat with the devil’s head, reads: “We are leaderless and nondenominational. We get together for discussion, food, drink, and ritual.”
Experts fear the meetings have potential to become much more sinister and involve sacrifices, animal slaying and even the harming of humans.
Kevin Carlyon, the High Priest of the White Witches, who practice positive thoughts and earth magic, warned members of the public to steer clear.
He said: “Anyone who joins this group would seriously be in danger of being used as a sacrifice.
“Satanists believe that human or animal blood gives them power and they will stop at nothing to get that.
“These are the type of people who go around slaying animals, horses, rabbits – you name it.”
The Satanic Bible, which LaVey penned in 1969, states that Satanists believe in “vengeance over turning the other cheek”.
The advert, placed on Gumtree last month, states that the group are based mainly in Glasgow but seek members from all over the country.
Laurie Matthew, who set up the Ritual Abuse Network Scotland, insisted police should be keeping a close eye on the group to prevent anything illegal happening.
She said: “We have counselled a lot of people – many more than you’d think – who have been affected by Satanic ritual.”
Scotland has had problems with Satanists in the past. They were blamed for a spate of horse slayings at the time of the summer solstice last year.

Are you a good witch or a . . . never mind you’re all OK by me
Patricia Baird-Windle, owner of the Aware Women’s abortion clinic in Florida was accused by some of being a witch. This was what Wren Walker of the “Witche’s Voice” had to say in her defense,
“Patricia Baird-Windle has not declared herself as a Witch (although to quote a Seinfeld episode “Not that’s there’s anything WRONG with that!). She ( Windle the abortion clinic owner) is in fact, known in the community in question as a Christian..albeit a Christian tolerant of feminists, witches and women’s rights.”
The car below was owned by one of the Aware Women’s clinic employees.

2) “MOTHERHOOD BY CHOICE NOT CHANCE” bumper sticker.
3) One on top of the bumper that is not visible: “MY GODDESS GAVE BIRTH TO YOUR GOD”
According to the article, How abortion ‘con man’ defied the law (NY Newsday 05/02/93), the ex-wife of abortion doctor, Maxen Samuel, claimed that Samuel used voodoo to persuade her to perform illegal abortions.
She stated to police that,
“he was very powerful and could cause my death, if he wished to do so, lighting candles, going into trances and be seemingly possessed by spirits . . . My husband would have friends and colleagues at our home to participate in these rituals.”
Brooklyn prosecutors dismissed the voodoo accusation as “beyond belief.” Samuel was later arrested for the illegal dumping of bloody medical waste from one of his Queens clinics.
The University of New Mexico’s student paper, The Lobo Daily, noted in a 11/05/93 article that abortionist Lewis H. Koplik admitted to wearing devil’s tail and a crimson horn at a demonstration. He claimed that he does not “personally believe in devils” but wore the costume to make a point.
City Beats article, Local clinic closes rather than obey new Ohio law (02/22/06), shows that Debi Jackson, an Ohio abortion clinic employee, practices an ancient Chinese ritual inside Cincinnati Women’s Services (abortion) clinic where she works.

* Have you ever been called a witch or weird?
* Can you list 3 female goddesses?
* Was that ritual a pagan one?

Have you ever participated in clinic defense at an abortion clinic?
On the website witchvox.com author Shining Spider penned an essay, Finding the Warrior Goddess In the Unlikeliest of Places, describes how her “religious life” and her activist life mingles as she works as an abortion clinic escort.
In her own words:
“Often, when we are on the “Pagan path” of seeking a relationship with the divine, we seek it out in what are still pretty traditional ways. Pagans – like other religious people – use meditation, chanting, prayer, worship, classes and workshops to find that aspect within each of us that links up with our idea of deity. Through these exercises we don’t only find peace or a connection with the Goddess, but we also learn more about ourselves.
I did ‘clinic defense’ work with a group based in DC. The basic premise is that, working with the clinic, we make a safe passage from street to door for women who are often yelled at by pro-life/anti-choice protesters. Not all clinics are in need of this – I, for many years, went to a Planned Parenthood.
During breaks, I noticed the changes that had taken place. Normally, I do not stand with the best posture and have trouble making eye contact with strangers. Through the initial hour or so of protest I had begun to stand tall and to meet the stare of the looming protestor, who seemed to constantly stand behind me screaming, ‘House of Abortion.’ This behavior change carried through my day and has spilled over into my day-to-day life. The woman who used to avoid eye contact, in the office hallway, has been replaced by a tall standing woman, now freely owning her own space, with a smile. When images of warriors are conjured in my mind, it is an active role; a person on horseback lunging forward into the throngs of ‘the enemy.’ Never before did I consider that holding my ground, making eye contact with a person throwing insults, or simply holding a door could hold that same energy or devotion to change.”

Abortion clinic named after goddess
The 1998 Sept/Oct edition of Christianity Today featured and article titled Bewitched, that spoke about how paganism was being mainstreamed into society.
The author writes:
“Like many Christians, I knew little about the neo-pagan movement until five years ago, when I discovered that the name of a Seattle abortion clinic, “Aradia,” named after a “goddess of healing arts,” also was cited in witchcraft literature as the daughter of the moon goddess Diana and the sun god Lucifer sent to earth to establish witchcraft.”
A February 23, 1992 article in the UK’s newspaper, The Independent, focused on a controversial satanic video. A woman identified only as ”Jennifer” claimed to have been a member of the group that made the video and said that she took part in ”rituals” held in the same room.
The paper reported that she told in graphic detail how she was made to take part in the sacrifice of young children, including her own baby daughter. She said one scene from the video was the abortion of a five-month-old fetus that would be used in sacrificial rituals. Her account was contested by some that claimed the video did not show children and the house where it was filed did not have a basement. But superintendent Michael Hames, head of the Obscene Publications Squad, said: ”It contains scenes of offenses of grievous bodily harm which are performed in a ritualistic fashion.” He added that the statements by ”Jennifer” amounted to an allegation of murder and the police wished to identify and interview her.

Witches and abortion
In the essay, Ethics of Abortion, a witch’s perspective, the author invesitgates the historical role of the witch and their association with abortion. Quoting from a variety of sources she writes:
About the witch as the abortionist:
“As a Wiccan High Priestess, I asked myself, where should a Witch’s ethics on abortion be grounded? My first approach was to consider the historical background of the Witch as an abortionist. Before the burning times women controlled their own medicine, and abortion was herbally induced. . . so we are told in Witches, Midwives, and Nurses (pg 14).”
About the witch and contraceptives:
“Ancient methods of family limitation known to the Greeks and Romans–contraceptive sponges, abortifacient drugs–were outlawed by the clergy and retained only in some secret traditions of witchcraft” (pg 174). Barbara Walker In her book, The Skeptical Feminist”
About her experience at a pro-choice event:
“Casting pentagrams in the air I yelled “I invoke Diana, protect your women” Some pro-choice women started chanting, “We all come from the Goddess”, while other pro-choice women defiantly held up crosses made from rusty clothes hangers. As they supported my ritual they became a part of it, blending our energies together. I focused on “Miss Forward”, repeating the invocation until peaking our cone.”
Say what? The goddess lives in my body?
The National Review reported December 16, 1991 that several escorts at the Feminist WHC clinics chanted bizarre chants. Besides the usual boilerplate (“fascist p—k,” “f—ing bitch,” KKK,” “Bircher,” etc.), the clinic escorts have chanted such lines as: “The goddess lives here in my body,” “Masturbation can be fun,” and “Jesus was an olive-skinned gay Jewish healer.”
In the pagan journal, The New Moon Rising, one witch writes about how pagans can take part in pro-abortion demonstrations.
“Wicca and Paganism are earth religions…the responsibility for the Freedom of Choice. (The abortion issue) has become more important among witches and pagans as they find themselves able to become more public, you can find Pagan-folk at the scene of ever major (pro-choice) demonstration…”

Aborted fetuses used for sacrifice in a satanic coven
On March 17, 1990, The Independent printed an article entitled, Ritual killing fears in child sex rings, author states that children and women are impregnated in ritualistic satanic fashion only to have the unborn children sacrificed and fetuses killed by pedophiles during satanic rites. Evidence gathered from children has convinced them that sophisticated child sex rings are involved in this ritual murder.
Social workers state that children are telling them horrific tales and they believe that in some circumstances the stories are true.
Jan Van Wagtendonk, consultant in child sexual abuse work with the National Children’s Home said:
”I believe that this does happen. Children are telling us about seeing babies killed, of killing animals, drinking urine and eating human flesh. Kids who at the time of abuse were only eight years old are saying they have been involved in the killing of babies. But we have no physical proof. I don’t know of any bodies having been dug up. I don’t know if dolls are being used and the children are being confused. We just don’t have the proof that these things have happened but I believe that killings have taken place.The ritual is used to scare the children into secrecy. Participating in the ceremonies makes them feel guilty and implicates them. Their stories are so incredible that people will not bother to believe them.”
The claims are that girls, known as ”brood mares”, produce fetuses for sacrifice in a coven. The mothers are said to participate sometimes in the killing.
One of the alleged victims of these rituals told the paper,
”I saw one foetus having its throat cut. The blood was collected for drinking and the body was burned. Sometimes killing will be done by stabbing through the heart. Bits of the body are taken out. The liver and the heart are important. They are eaten or stored in a freezer until the next time around. Sometimes they will melt down the fat for candles and bones are used as aphrodisiacs.Babies are important because it is believed that Satan likes something that is pure so that it can be defiled. Children are considered pure, so to defile them and drink their blood is seen as enhancing a person’s power.The girls are kept through blackmail. It is very hard to get them to talk. A girl of 13 may have killed a baby. That is murder. People will tell them that they can’t go to anyone because they have killed as well.”
The Daily Telegraph, (NHS doctor ‘told patient she was possessed by evil’: 11/9/2006), reported that Dr. Joyce Pratt in London, who practices at several family Planning clinics, told a patient that she had “something sinister” moving in her stomach and needed an exorcism to ward off evil spirits, a medical tribunal heard yesterday.
The London Guardian, Doctor prescribed crosses to beat black magic, tribunal told (11/9/2006), reported that Pratt informed the young woman that she was being tormented by black magic and sent her away with crosses and stones to protect her. She also claimed to have visionary powers and told the patient that her mother was a witch who was planning to kill her, it was alleged.
Pratt worked for the NHS Westside Contraceptive Services in Westminster, London, which offers emergency contraceptives otherwise known as abortion pills. The UK Guardian Unlimited reported that she also works in several other family planning clinics.
Heather Norton, for UK’s General Medical Council (GMC), told the The UK Express (Doctor told her patient: Go to see an exorcist: 11/9/2006), “The case stems from a particular consultation at the Westside Contraceptive Clinic with the patient, Mrs K, who attended for an injection.”
“It was made clear to Dr. Pratt by Mrs. K that she had concerns about the size of her stomach and about bleeding and pain she had previously experienced.
“Dr. Pratt’s response was effectively to tell Mrs. K that she had black magic powers in order to alleviate the problem.
“She told her that she should take holy water and that she should see some priests.”
“She gave her crosses and stones that she said would protect her from black magic.”
“She told her her mother was a witch and that she and her husband were planning to kill her. Mrs. K was left very shaken and intimidated.”
“Dr. Pratt then spoke to the clinic nurse, who was present. She spoke to her about that fact that she was a visionary and that her special powers were recognised from an early age.”
“The nurse was sufficiently alarmed that she contacted Mrs. K to check she was all right and to notify her manager.”
By John P. Connolly, The Bulletin
Published:Tuesday, February 3, 2009
An exorcist authorized to perform exorcisms in several dioceses spoke at a religious ministry luncheon on Sunday, explaining the basics of exorcism and its connection with abortion.
Fr. Thomas Euteneuer, president of Human Life International and an exorcist, …is an exorcist authorized to perform exorcisms in several states, and highlighted the connection between the abortion industry and demonic influence.
“Abortion is a demonic industry,” he told The Bulletin. “Abortion is blood sacrifice of innocent blood to the devil. The clinics are like temples, the doctors are like priests, the medical table is like their altar. It’s a ritualized sacrifice. They have a dogma called choice, a hierarchy called Planned Parenthood, and guardian angels in the form of police guards that will arrest you if you try to stop them.”
He said that there have been abortionists who have called abortion “their sacrament.” Fr. Euteneuer advocates prayer as a necessary step to successfully fighting abortion.
“Abortion is a spiritual evil,” he said. “If we are to beat it, we can’t just fight it in the political realm. It derives its power from below. To confront a force this strong, you need a massive amount of prayer. .”
THIS IS A RUSH TRANSCRIPT. THIS COPY MAY NOT BE IN ITS FINAL FORM AND MAY BE UPDATED.
DOBBS: Coming up next, forget recycling and hybrid cars, why having fewer children may save the environment, may save the planet. But nobody’s talking about that. Why? We’ll be right back.
(COMMERCIAL BREAK)
DOBBS: We have more tonight on a story that we first brought to you last month. There is new evidence of the negative impact of overpopulation on our environment. The biggest threat to the environment isn’t, it turns out, gas-guzzling cars or power plants but rather having too many children all around the world. Casey Wian with our report.
(BEGIN VIDEOTAPE)
CASEY WIAN, CNN CORRESPONDENT: The cheapest way to stop global climate change is not converting to solar power or buying a hybrid car. It’s putting on a condom. That’s the conclusion of a London school of economics study showing that money spent on contraception is about five times more efficient than money spent on clean energy technologies. It backs up a recent Oregon State University study that concludes overpopulation is the single biggest threat to the environment.
PROF. PAUL MURTAUGH, OREGON STATE UNIVERSITY: It’s been a lot of attention to the effects of individuals’ lifestyle choices, things like transportation, food choices and so on, but relatively little attention to the effect of having children.
WIAN: The British Medical Journal and Lancet last week both published an editorial stating that the sensitive issue of population stabilization continues to slip off the agenda but is crucial to achieving real reductions in global co2 emissions.
VICKY MARKHAM, DIR. CENTER FOR ENVIRONMENT AND POPULATION: There is a large body of scientific evidence that shows links between population factors and climate change as well as many other environmental issues but climate change is especially.
WIAN: Supporters of the idea are not advocating laws that would restrict individual family planning choices or encourage government funding with birth control. They want developed and developing nations to at least discuss the issue. Rapidly rising population is a greater threat in third world nations while the environmental impact of each child in developmental countries is greater because they use much more energy.
PROF. BEN ZUCKERMAN, UCLA: People should be made aware of both by the environmental organizations and by the media that it’s good for a couple to stop at two or fewer non-adopted children and then to outline some of the good environmental things that would accrue.
WIAN: Yet, many environmental groups are reluctant to tacking the issue, so is the United Nations, which is overseeing global change negotiations. “The Washington Post” reports it asked a U.N. official about family planning and the environment and the official replied “to bring the issue up would be an insult to developing countries.”
(END VIDEOTAPE)
WIAN: President Obama plans to speak at the U.N. tomorrow about climate change, in advance of I global conference on the issue in December. Scholars who are concerned about the rural overpopulation plays in climate change are still hope forge a seat at the table during those talks. Lou?
DOBBS: Yeah, I mean what we’re really talking about here is, you can almost hear the shudders of politically correct quarters all over the country as you report on that as we bring that knowledge to the American public. Because there’s such high-bound orthodoxies in this country, ideological, partisan, politically correct constraints on lines in this country. That’s the real problem here, isn’t it?
WIAN: Absolutely. The scholars we talked to say it’s been absolutely ignored by the environmental community, Lou.
DOBBS: All right. Thank you very much, Casey. As always, we’re awfully sensitive to those orthodoxies there. Thanks very much, Casey Wian.
And a reminder to join me on the radio Monday through Fridays for the Lou Dobbs Show, 2:00 to 4:00 each afternoon on WOR radio in New York. And go to loudobbs.com to sign up for our podcast.
Hmmm. They are not advocating FORCED or COMPULSORY abortion and birth control any more than Obama’s Science Czar was when he suggested that if the population did not curb, we could see force:
He writes:
Perhaps we have forgotten that over 31 states had Eugenics Laws and Eugenic Courts and Forced Sterilizations on thousands of people. Think it couldn’t happen again?

CHULA VISTA, Calif. — A family member expressed outrage Friday over the punishment handed down for two local health care workers, 10News reported.
Longtime Chula Vista resident Maria Hart said everyone knows where to go when they need to get an abortion.
Hart took her cousin to a local clinic when they were younger.
“She came out crying; she came out in tears, back then we were young,” said Hart.
Hart and her cousin were afraid to tell anyone. Hart said her cousin was fondled and sexually molested during her abortion.
“We kind of just went there and trusted the doctors and that they would treat us correctly, and they didn’t,” said Hart.
The doctor her cousin visited, Bertha Bugarin, was sentenced to seven years in state prison for posing as a doctor and performing illegal abortions.
A court recently sentenced her accomplices, Luz Catalina-Gomez and Paloma Rodriguez, to three years probation.
“I don’t think it’s right that they’re just still walking around, free to go,” said Hart.
A new clinic has recently opened up under the name Woman’s Choice Family Planning Clinic, and it is being run by Dr. Andrew Rutland. Sources told 10News that Rutland has had problems in the past and is on probation.
Rutland was accused by the State Medical Board of negligently treating ten patients, including two infants who died. He surrendered his license, but applied for reinstatement five years later.
The medical board granted his request in 2007, and Rutland was placed on five years probation and must now practice under the supervision of another doctor.
“How can you say that this particular clinic is continuing Bugarin’s efforts?” asked 10News’ Charisse Yu.
“The doctor who is presently here has connections with one of the doctors who used to work for Bugarin who lost his license because of malpractice suits,” said pro-life advocate Luis Mendoza.
Hart said she can only hope history won’t repeat itself at a clinic that left many women with emotional and physical scars.

Pro-Life Black Pastors Oppose President Obama’s Healthcare Plan ‘Outraged’ by Church of God In Christ Bishop Blake’s Endorsement of Obama Healthcare
WASHINGTON, Sept. 28 /Christian Newswire/ — The following statement is in response to the recent public endorsement of President Barack Obama’s healthcare plan by Bishops from the “Church of God in Christ,” led by Bishop Charles E. Blake Sr.
This statement is made by Black ministers and pastors actively involved in the Pro-life Movement, including the chair of the National Black Pro Life Congress, the national director of L.E.A.R.N Inc. (Life Education and Resource Network), and the executive director of the Network of Politically Active Christians. They pastor congregations in California, Texas, North Carolina, Michigan and Washington, D.C.
The Black Pro-life Movement is outraged by the recent endorsement of this administration’s health care proposal by some clergy of the Church of God in Christ.
As God-fearing individuals we encourage COGIC leaders to read and evaluate the President’s plan, including the Capps-Waxman Amendment, rather than merely parroting his words. If unborn children cannot depend on the Church to carefully examine this bill to see if their lives will be protected from state- funded genocide, on whom can they depend?
Such an endorsement does not consider the devastating impact abortion is having in the black community. Over 1,400 black babies each day are lynched out of their mothers’ wombs. Clearly, this rate of prenatal murder in our community outpaces death by heart disease, diabetes, cancer, HIV/AIDS and violent crime combined.
We find it troubling that this endorsement does not acknowledge the deliberate targeting of the black community by Planned Parenthood and the abortion industry, nor decry the mental and physiological impact abortion is having on black women across America.
We recommend in the strongest terms possible that this endorsement be withdrawn until such time that the Obama administration adds language to the health care proposal that specifically prohibits taxpayer funded abortions.

Black pro-life leaders inform and educate during Congressional Black Caucus week
Washington, DC – On the heels of a successful Define the Dream: America’s Health Care Agenda crusade during the Congressional Black Caucus week of events, Prolife African American Leaders are now seeking to engage the COGIC (Church of God in Christ) in positive dialogue regarding COGIC’s endorsement of President Obama’s Health Care Bill.
Dr. Johnny Hunter of LEARN has released an open letter to COGIC urging caution for their endorsement of President Obama’s health care bill.
Some of the leaders, organized by Pastor Stephen Broden of Fairpark Bible Fellowship in Dallas, Texas, have also issued statements regarding pressing concerns over COGIC’s endorsement, which does not include strong pro-life sanctions, even though many of the COGOC leaders say that they are pro-life.
The Pro-life African American Leaders are working to get the informative genocide expose, Maafa21 into the hands of COGIC and other church leaders across the country as part of their national education campaign. As the campaign continues, the leaders urge people to see Maafa21 and share the film with members of their communities.
“We hope to engage COGIC and other church leaders in meaningful, informative dialogue as the health care debate continues,” said Dr. Alveda King of Priests for Life, who is working with Rev. Arnold Culbreath of Protecting Black Life to contact leaders of COGIC.
Slain Wichita abortion provider George Tiller was honored posthumously in Washington over the weekend with one of the highest honors given by the International Federation of Planned Parenthood Foundation, the group announced Monday.
Tiller was named recipient of the group’s Medal of Honor for “outstanding individual contribution to sexual and reproductive health.”
The medal was presented at the international group’s Western Hemisphere meeting. Tiller’s widow, Jeanne, accepted it on her late husband’s behalf, according to a statement from the organization.
The award was presented by Alexander Sanger, grandson of Margaret Sanger, a nurse who crusaded for women’s access to birth control in the early 20th century and co-founded Planned Parenthood.
“For 30 years, George Tiller stood up to protests, harassment and assaults, even being wounded some years ago in a shooting,” Alexander Sanger said. “He kept his clinic doors open to give a choice to women who never imagined they would ever need it — women with a wanted pregnancy that had gone terribly awry as it progressed.”
After decades of operating a controversial clinic providing late-term abortions in Wichita, Tiller was gunned down May 31 at Reformation Lutheran Church, where he was serving as an usher for Sunday services.
So Late-Term Abortion Doc, George Tiller, is now in the Planned Parenthood: Hall of Fame alongside Eugenics Member and Planned Parenthood Founder Margaret Sanger.
Margaret Sanger, the founder of Planned Parenthood was a long-standing member of the American Eugenics Society as were many of Planned Parenthood’s founders. It is no wonder that an organization which worked alongside those who felt that blacks, Jews, disabled were not equal to White Elitists would honor Tiller.
Let’s see some of Tiller’s handiwork: ( Story here)
I wonder when the “We care about women abortion industry” and Planned Parenthood will honor Christin Gilbert who died from the abortion she received at the hands of Dr. Tiller. Oh, but I forgot, she had Down’s Syndrome, and that is just the type of “Health Problem” Tiller targeted in his eugenic abortion mill.
More Dirt on Planned Parenthood : ACLJ Files Reply Brief with Federal Appeals Court in Massive Fraud Case against Planned Parenthood Affiliates in California
WASHINGTON–(BUSINESS WIRE)–The American Center for Law and Justice (ACLJ) has filed an additional brief with the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit in a multi-million dollar fraud case against Planned Parenthood (PP) affiliates in California. The ACLJ filed its reply brief Friday with the appeals court in a case where ACLJ attorneys represent a former employee of the PP affiliate in Los Angeles, who is now a federal whistleblower. The case had been dismissed by a federal district court, but the ACLJ is asking the appeals court to reinstate the lawsuit.
The federal False Claims Act (FCA) forbids government contractors from submitting “false or fraudulent” claims for payment. The FCA also authorizes private individuals to bring suit against the offenders to recover the fraudulently obtained funds.
“Nationally, Planned Parenthood is a billion-dollar operation. We believe this case will show that Planned Parenthood has been soaking taxpayers even beyond the legal limits,” said Jay Sekulow, ACLJ Chief Counsel. “The False Claims Act provides an important weapon in rectifying illegal runs on taxpayer dollars.”
The allegation in this case is that PP affiliates in California illegally marked up the supposed cost of various birth control drugs when seeking government reimbursement, resulting in tens of millions of dollars of overbilling – at taxpayer expense. State audits in both California and Washington State have found PP affiliates guilty of overbilling.
In the reply brief filed with the appeals court on September 25th, the ACLJ counters arguments that the Planned Parenthood affiliates made in their own brief on appeal. In particular, the ACLJ brief takes Planned Parenthood to task for “misrepresenting” the record in the case and for “improperly” trying to inject new materials into the case on appeal.
When the former PP staffer sued the PP affiliates in federal court, charging the defendants with having fraudulently overbilled the state and federal governments in the amount of tens of millions of dollars, a prominent law firm began representing the PP defendants in the case for free. The law firm convinced a federal district court to dismiss the case. ACLJ attorneys then entered the case to handle the appeal.
“This is a very complicated, highly technical area of the law,” noted Sekulow. “There is no way an ordinary citizen, no matter how just the claim or how egregious the fraud, could afford to take on a prominent law firm in a complex area of the law like this. We’re very pleased that the ACLJ was available to provide the high-powered analysis a case like this calls for,” concluded Sekulow.
The ACLJ filed its opening brief in July and explained why the appeals court should reverse the lower court’s judgment and reinstate the lawsuit. You can read the ACLJ opening brief here:

Speaking at the recent How To Take Back America Conference, Rep. Trent Franks (R-AZ) Calls Obama an “Enemy of Humanity” for his support and funding of abortion, which I consider to be CHILD KILLING !
But the Libs are up in arms over the statement, because Franks who now admits that he was referring to the “Humanity” of the unborn, did not make that clarification. But, aborting or should I say killing a child through abortion is paramount to attacking humanity and here is a why:
Orange, CA – On September 16, 2009, pro-life sidewalk counselors observed and photographed an ambulance responding to a medical emergency at a Planned Parenthood abortion clinic, located at 700 Tustin Dr. in Orange, California. Ten days later a different group of pro-life supporters observed and photographed another emergency transport by ambulance from that same abortion clinic.
“Two ambulances in ten days shows that there is something terribly wrong going on inside that abortion clinic,” said Operation Rescue President Troy Newman. “Abortion clinics only call ambulances when there are very serious medical emergencies. When ambulances start showing up with this kind of frequency, it is time for the authorities to start investigating. This clinic is not safe and women should be warned.”
During both incidents, sidewalk counselors reported that a Planned Parenthood security person came out of the clinic and began to photograph the pro-lifers in an attempt to intimidate them.
Operation Rescue is protecting the identities of the witnesses because of intimidation tactics and threats they received from clinic security on several occasions.
During the September 16 incident, an ambulance and fire truck arrived at the Planned Parenthood office at approximately 11:00 AM. They loaded a woman on a gurney into the ambulance and sped away.
Ten days later, another ambulance arrived at approximately 11:10 AM, leaving about ten minutes later bearing a Planned Parenthood patient to a nearby hospital.
During that incident on September 26, sidewalk counselors report observing abortionist David M. Speiser arriving at the Planned Parenthood abortion clinic in his Lexis automobile with both the front and back license plates covered with paper.
It is unknown what abortionist was on duty on during the September 16 incident, but sidewalk counselors have identified Merle Robboy and Jonathan Dunn as abortionists who frequent that facility.
“It is our opinion that abortionists Speiser, Robboy, and Dunn each should be investigated for potentially illegal practices and violations of the standard of care,” said Newman. “These women could have died for all we know. We’ve seen it happen before. Someone in authority should care enough about them to look into this. We will be working with local pro-life activists to investigate further and will report any wrong-doing we discover to the appropriate authorities.”
After I read this Press Release, I got to thinking- Where I have seen this Planned Parenthood before? Then I realized it was shown in the film: Maafa21, which details the Elitist Plan to exterminate Blacks from America from abortion and Black Genocide:
One of the country’s most articulate and credible voices on the threat of radical Islam within our borders stated last week that it is the greatest threat to our nation today beyond any other domestic issues we are addressing. In the strictly national security and geopolitical contexts, this person was right. As she stated, government takeover of health care and other industries are not a concern to those who are dead.
I’ll have to admit, however, that my spirit rejected the notion that radical Islam is THE greatest threat to America any more than it was when Muhammad’s hordes were sweeping on horseback through northern Africa, the Middle East and into western Europe a millennia ago. Imperialist Islam has been defeated and contained before and certainly can be again.
The question is whether there are as many Christians left in America willing to live and die for our faith, families and freedom as there are orthodox Muslims willing to kill and die for theirs.
The pathetic preaching that has created a generation of shallow, self-focused professing followers of Jesus Christ has done far more damage to our national security than any conspiracies of men of any religion or no religion, any race and any creed could do.
Theologian Francis Schaeffer asserted in his powerful book “The Great Evangelical Disaster” that:
There is only one perspective we can have of the post-Christian world of our generation: an understanding that our culture and our country deserves to be under the wrath of God. It will not do to say the United States is God’s country in some special way. … The last few generations have trampled upon the truth of the Bible and all that those truths have brought forth.
The fact is that the blood of nearly 50 million legally (not lawfully) murdered babies has cried out to the throne of heaven. It demands justice, and the merciful God who I believe governs over all the universe could not turn a blind eye to the child sacrifice pandemic in and by the country once hailed as a “shining city on a hill.”
Barack Hussein Obama and the reprobate minds governing most of our governing entities were elevated to civil authority by a people who have largely rejected the God of our fathers, the authority of His written word and 2,000 years of history – all in desperate search for a human king who would take care of us. We have sown the wind and are reaping the whirlwind.
Practitioners of orthodox Islam who seek to conquer and subjugate the world can only be a threat if there is not at least a passionate minority in this country who accept the charge to follow in the footsteps of our ancestors of faith and nation by redeeming everything we touch in His name.
How can we credibly demand that terrorists adhere to a worldview that respects the value and sanctity of every life when we ourselves do not?
How can we legitimately insist that politicians respect the boundaries of the U.S. and state constitutions when we have required them to destroy those boundaries to meet our “needs”?
How can we rise up in indignation against sexual perversion and demand a “pro-family” standard for a nation that has undermined God’s definition of family, rejected children as a gift from Him, treated marriage as an agreement rather than a covenant, etc.?
The terror plots foiled in Dallas and Springfield, Ill., last week give proof – again – that we have mortal enemies walking among us. Why should they not? We invited them. Our dumbed-down, “have it your way” church culture has provided no defense for aggressive multiculturalism that places Judaism and Christianity on equal footing with animal worship.
We’re told by toothy-grinned TV pastors that we just need to “love Jesus,” but please don’t mention the “S word” (sin) or be faithful to teach the whole counsel of Scripture that convicts, cleanses and restores. After all, it was for our “best life now” that Christ was crucified, not because of our sin … not.
The Equal Access Act requires that if any club is allowed on school campuses, all clubs must be allowed, hence the rising number of Muslim groups, sexual diversity groups, etc., since all beliefs are equal and we cannot make moral judgments.
Islamists who have clear and documented links to terrorism are allowed to immigrate and live here because we prefer to say that our war is just a “war on terror” rather than against Islam.
Tyrants and dictators who rule by terror and who are our mortal enemies are allowed to spew their venom and deception on our own soil because we refuse to stop playing host and sugar daddy to the globalist “Animal Farm” called the United Nations.
Who is the enemy?
President Ronald Reagan admonished us in his landmark address, “Abortion and the Conscience of a Nation” that:
The real question is not when human life begins, but, what is the value of human life? The abortionist who reassembles the arms and legs of a tiny baby to make sure all its parts have been torn from its mother’s body can hardly doubt whether it is a human being. The real question for him and for all of us is whether that tiny human life has a God-given right to be protected by the law – the same right we have.
When we stop the slaughter of the unborn and choose leaders who choose life, we will have the spiritual and moral standing to ask God to protect us from foreign and domestic terrorists. If not, they may serve as His hand of well-deserved judgment.
I am often accused by Atheists of refusing to admit when I am in error, but I was certainly was wrong this time.
Last week I said that Charles Darwin wasn’t a racist, and that even if he was, his personal morality was irrelevant when it came to the theory of evolution. But after studying him closely, I have changed my mind.
Let’s look at his own words:
“At some future period, not very distant as measured by centuries, the civilized races of man will almost certainly exterminate and replace throughout the world the savage races. At the same time the anthropomorphous apes, as Professor Schaaffhausen has remarked, will no doubt be exterminated. The break will then be rendered wider, for it will intervene between man in a more civilized state, as we may hope, than the Caucasian, and some ape as low as a baboon, instead of as at present between the negro or Australian and the gorilla.”
While the above quote seems as nebulous as one of the prophesies of Nostradamus, close study reveals Darwin’s point. He is predicting that civilized races would replace savage races. The gap between savages and the civilized races would become wider, like the gap he saw between the white races and the ape. That means that there would no longer be a closeness, such as the one he saw between the negro and the gorilla.
He was saying that Blacks were closer to gorillas than the whites were. Who could deny that this is a blatantly racist statement, particularly when contemporary society says that just saying or even putting the “n” word in print, is racism? Yet modern admirers of Darwin try and justify his racism by saying that he loved the Negro, and that he spoke kindly of their intelligence. He wrote during his voyage on the Beagle, “I never saw anything more intelligent than the Negros, especially the Negro or Mulatto children.”
After reading Life with a Black Regiment, Darwin wrote to the author to thank him “heartily for the very great pleasure” which it gave him: “I always thought well of the Negroes, from the little which I have seen of them; and I have been delighted to have my vague impressions confirmed, and their character and mental powers so ably discussed.” He despised proponents of slavery, referring to them as “the polished savages in England,” while saying of a black lieutenant that he’d never met anywhere “a more civil and obliging man.”
Charles Darwin believed that the black race was closer to the gorilla than the white race, but he thought that they were friendly, well-behaved, and intelligent. His attitude was similar to that of a man who likes well-trained dogs. He thinks that they are friendly, well-behaved, and some are extremely intelligent.
His racism was blatant, indefensible, and was shaped by his belief in evolution.

COMMENT:

Posted On: 09/29/09 05:35:41 PM Age 52, OH
I suggest viewing a documentary video called Maafa 21. Darwin directly influenced the eugenics movement in America, eventually leading to Planned Parenthood, where more African
Clearchannel Host Bill Handel of KFI Los Angeles covers Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg’s recent comments to the NY Times regarding abortion and population control.
New film exposes Black Genocide from Abortion
After three years of research, Life Dynamics, a national organization based in Denton, Tx, has produced a documentary which exposes the racist roots of abortion called: Maafa21.
Maafa21 meticulously chronicles the links from slavery to colonization to Darwin to Eugenics to sterilization to birth control and finally to abortion. Maafa 21 shows, without exception, how African-Americans are the targets of the social elite. You’ll learn that civil rights leaders in the 1960’s gave a clear warning that abortion and population control was a tool of Black Genocide. You will see the links between racism, eugenics, and Planned Parenthood’s effort to market abortion to the African American Community. Maafa 21 emotionally chronicles the story of an African American woman who was eugenically sterilized at the age of 14, a riveting testimony guaranteed to render the audience speechless. Photos, newspaper clippings, documentation, and direct quotes make Maafa 21 highly credible.
In the few weeks since Maafa21 has been released, there have already been two showings of Maafa21 to Congress. Even some members of the Black Caucus have viewed this documentary.
Shocking fact:
In a recent New York Times interview , Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg told Emily Bazelon that,
“…I had thought that at the time Roe was decided, there was concern about population growth and particularly growth in populations that we don’t want to have too many of.”
The “Populations” Ginsburg referred to in that interview is clearly defined in, Maafa21.
WARNING: Maafa 21 is not for the faint of heart and proves its points with original documents and racist sound bites, which will offend most viewers. Viewer discretion is advised!
Newly released Nixon tapes confirm the statements of racism played on the new documentary on Black Genocide: Maafa21.
The Nixon Library released more Nixon Tapes. Although the quality of the recordings are poor, Nixon and an aide held a conversation recorded on January 23, 1973, discussing that day’s Supreme Court’s decisions in Roe v. Wade and Doe v. Bolton.
“I know that there are times when abortions are necessary. I know that,” Nixon tells an aide, then adding, “When you have a black and a white.”
The aide interrupts, “or for rape,” to which Nixon quickly responds, “or rape.”
Recently, a new documentary: Maafa21, was released which exposed high level plans within the US to use abortion as Black Genocide. The well documented film, ( a must see) exposed the early and extremely racist roots of the national largest abortion provider: Planned Parenthood and a host of eugenic connections they partnered with to reduce the Black Population.
As you watch Maafa21 the audience is stunned by admissions from Republican President Richard Nixon as to why he feels the nation will support abortion:
NIXON Tape #697-29
Nixon: “A majority of people in Colorado voted for abortion, I think a majority of people in Michigan are for abortion, I think in both cases, well, certainly in Michigan they will vote for it because they think that what’s going to be aborted generally are the little black bastards.”
NIXON TAPE 700-10
Nixon: ” … as I told you and we talked about it earlier, that a hell of a lot of people want to control all the Negro bastards.”
Unidentified Staff: “Yeah“
Nixon: “Isn’t that really true?“
Nixon: “You know what we are talking about – Population Control?”
Unidentified Staff: “Sure“
Nixon: “We’re talking really – and what John Rockefeller really realizes – look, the people in what we call the “our class” control their populations. Sometimes they’ll have a family of six, or seven, or eight, or nine, but it’s an exception.”
Unidentified Staff: Sure.
Nixon: “People who don’t control their families are people in- the people who shouldn’t have kids.”
President Nixon formed the Population Commission which was headed by eugenics members.
Maafa 21 will shock you. To see documentation showing the racism used in the abortion business and philosophy is hard to believe. To discover how one African American reporter was fired by Newsweek because he was going to expose the government’s role in Black Genocide was horrifying to say the least.
To Listen to Nixon – Go to 3:25 minutes on below
Maafa21 Gives much more detail regarding Planned Parenthood’s connection to Eugenics and Racism.
The testimony of the grand jury that indicted Roman Polanski in 1977 was released and it depicted the 13 year-old rape victim as frightened.
This is what Liberal – Supposed FEMINIST – Whoopi Goldberg calls, “NOT RAPE RAPE” – Perhaps the “Women of the View” do not “VIEW” the rape of children as VIOLENCE AGAINST WOMEN ! Disgusting !!!
According to the testimony, Roman Polanski’s was indicted on charges of furnishing a controlled substance to a minor, lewd or lascivious act on a child under 14, unlawful sexual intercourse with a female under the age of 18, rape by use of drugs, perversion (now called oral copulation) and sodomy.
After all these charges were leveled against him, then Polanski pleaded guilty to one count of unlawful sexual intercourse and in a plea-bargain, prosecutors dropped the other charges.
However on the other hand, the victim in the case, Samantha Geimer, now a mother of four children, has publicly said that she doesn’t believe Polanski deserves any more time in jail now, but her testimony in the case could be a boost to officials seeking public support.
A transcript of the testimony reveals that the victim was afraid of Polanski. The victim testified that after she left the whirlpool bath, Polanski told her to go into a nearby bedroom and lie down.
A: I was going, ‘No, I think I better go home,’ because I was afraid. So I just went and I sat down on the couch.
Q: What were you afraid of?
A: Him.
(A few minutes later)
A: He sat down beside me and asked me if I was OK.
Q: What did you say, if anything?
A: I said, ‘No.’
Q: What did he say?
A: He goes, ‘Well, you’ll be better.’ And I go, ‘No, I won’t. I have to go home.’
Q: What happened then?
A: He reached over and he kissed me. And I was telling him, ‘No,’ you know, ‘Keep away.’
After Polanski kissed her, the victim alleged, he began to engage in oral sex.
A: … I was ready to cry. I was kind of — I was going, ‘No. Come on. Stop it.’ But I was afraid.
Q: And what did he say, if anything?
A: He wasn’t saying anything that I can remember. He was — sometimes he was saying stuff, but I was just blocking him out, you know.
The victim testified that Polanski began having sex with her, but sodomized her when he learned she wasn’t using birth control.
A: He asked, he goes, ‘Are you on the pill?’ And I went, ‘No.’ And he goes, ‘When did you last have your period?’ And I said, I don’t know. A week or two. I’m not sure.’
Q: And what did he say?
A: He goes, ‘Come on. You have to remember.’ And I told him I didn’t.
Q: Did he say anything after that?
A: Yes. He goes, ‘Would you want me to go through your back? And I went, ‘No.’
The victim testified that after the sex, she got dressed and waited in the car for Polanski to drive her home. Before driving her home, he asked her to keep the incident a secret.
A: He said to me, he goes, ‘Oh, don’t tell your mother about this.’ …
Q: What did you say?
A: I wasn’t saying anything. He says, ‘Don’t tell your mother about this and don’t tell your boyfriend either.’ … He said something like, ‘This is our secret.’ And I went, ‘Yeah.’ And then later he said, ‘You know, when I first met you I promised myself I wouldn’t do anything like this with you.’
Goldberg is a defender of abortion and her reaction mirrors the cover-ups of sexual child predators and statutory rape in undercover investigations of Planned Parenthood:
Another investigation done years earlier by Life Dynamics confirms this – from their website: www.childpredators.com:
Planned Parenthood and the National Abortion Federation have made a conscious decision to conceal the sexual exploitation of underage girls and protect the men who commit these crimes. And Life Dynamics has compiled an overwhelming body of statistical evidence showing that the rate at which these two organizations fail to comply with mandatory reporting laws is in excess of 90 percent.
In order to confirm these statistics, Life Dynamics conducted a covert investigation in which we called over 800 Planned Parenthood and National Abortion Federation facilities across the country. Our caller portrayed a 13-year-old girl who was pregnant by her 22-year-old boyfriend. Her story was that she wanted an abortion because she and her boyfriend did not want her parents to find out about the sexual relationship. In every call the ages of the girl and her boyfriend were made perfectly clear. It was also unmistakable that the motivation for the abortion was to conceal this illicit sexual activity from the girl’s parents and the authorities.
The results were appalling. Even though many of these clinic workers openly acknowledged to our caller that this situation was illegal and that they were required to report it to the state, the overwhelming majority readily agreed to conceal this illegal sexual activity.
Some employees of these organizations even coached our caller on how to avoid detection, how to circumvent parental involvement laws and what to say or not say when she came to the clinic. In a significant number of instances she was encouraged to lie about, or conceal, her age or her boyfriend’s age or to give false names. During these calls it was not uncommon for the Planned Parenthood or National Abortion Federation representative to warn our caller that if someone were to find out about this situation her boyfriend could go to jail.
Worse yet, in states with parental involvement legislation, our caller was often informed about this option while also being instructed not to tell the judge about the age of her boyfriend. In some instances these employees even encouraged her to lie to the judge if specifically asked for that information. Other employees advised her that neighboring states have no parental involvement requirements and that if she went there and either concealed or lied about the age issue, she would have no problem getting a secret abortion.
In other words, they suggested that a 13-year-old girl should help to conceal a crime that was being committed against her. In some calls she was given instructions on how to circumvent the parental involvement requirement altogether, even to the point of suggesting that she bring someone along to sign for her who looked old enough to impersonate one of her parents.
Sometimes she would be told that, technically speaking, the clinic was required to report this activity to the state but that if the caller would either lie about her age or just keep her mouth shut when she came in for her abortion no one would ask any questions. Several times she was told that the facility had no interest in the ages of the parties involved or that they do not verify ages or check IDs and would accept whatever she told them at face value. One employee went so far as to tell her that if she came in with the cash she could be any age she wanted to be.
Unfortunately, situations like those described here are neither rare nor isolated. In the end, the vast majority of Planned Parenthood and National Abortion Federation facilities that we contacted were willing to illegally conceal the sexual abuse of this 13-year-old girl. In every case, the clinic representative had never met this child, knew virtually nothing about her, had only engaged in a brief telephone conversation with her, and was told nothing to indicate that her parents would be abusive if they discovered the sexual relationship.
Nevertheless, these clinic workers were willing – and in many cases eager – to help this child hide the fact that she was being sexually exploited from her parents and the authorities. Toward that end, they provided step-by-step instructions on how to circumvent state laws that were enacted specifically for the purpose of protecting children exactly like her, in situations just like this.
HARTFORD, Conn. — A court proceeding that was expected to be routine instead unveiled a plea deal Wednesday that was reached with Adam Gault, the West Hartford man accused of hiding and sexually assaulting a presumed missing Bloomfield teenager in his home.
Channel 3 Eyewitness News reporter Len Besthoff reported Gault pleaded guilty Wednesday morning on counts including second-degree assault, kidnapping, conspiracy to kidnap and risk of injury to a minor.
“There was a lot of evidence against him and he decided to plea plead? guilty and he’s remorseful and he hopes that the judge imposes a sentence that is around the term that the judge indicated today,” Gault’s attorney Gerald Klein said .
The state is recommending a 50-year prison sentence to be suspended after 30 years, in addition to a 20-year sentence of probation.
Gault was being held on $2.35 million bond. His common law wife, Ann Murphy, 40, and Kimberly Cray, 26, another woman who was living at the home, also face charges of kidnapping, hindering prosecution, risk of injury to a minor, conspiracy to commit unlawful restraint, conspiracy to commit risk of injury to a minor and interfering with police.
“He could have appropriately been held on over 100 counts,” said Marc Needleman, the victim’s attorney. “The real issue is getting him off the street making sure that other kids can no longer be a victim of his.”
Besthoff reported the plea deal involves several different cases connected to this plea in addition to that of the runaway Bloomfield teen. Besthoff, who was inside the courtroom at the time of the plea, said another teenager came forward after the Bloomfield teenager case arose, accusing Gault of taking a teenage girl to the Vernon area.
Fascinating details were unveiled during the court proceeding, which continued on the third floor of Hartford Superior Court through noon hour, Besthoff said. The court revealed details about the dog trainer’s manipulation of the girl less than half his age, which the victim’s family refers to as brainwashing.
“We believe and the authorities believe that many of the things he did with my client were similar to how he interacted with animals, he was harsh, very controlling, domineering,” said Needleman.
In the courtroom, the assistant state’s attorney David Zagaja gave details of the roles played by Murphy and Cray. Zagaja explained how Murphy helped hide the teen the day police found her. He also explained how Cray helped to bring the girl, pregnant with Gault’s baby, to Planned Parenthood. However, neither Cray nor Murphy have pleaded in their cases yet.
Besthoff reported Gault was clean-shaven as he appeared quiet and solemn with shorter hair since he was last seen over the summer.
In November, the 41-year-old Gault was prepared to plead guilty until the defense reversed the decision, citing competency concerns. At the time, attorney Gerald Klein said he advised Gault not to accept the plea deal.
The girl was 14 when she ran away to live with Gault, who had worked with her stepfather. She was found hiding in June in a small storage area in Gault’s home when police searched it, fearing she might be dead.
SAN DIEGO, California (CNN) — When his stint in the White House is over, President Obama might just learn that Thomas Wolfe was right. You can’t go home again.
Back in Obama’s adopted hometown of Chicago, Illinois, some members of the black community are incensed at the president for not personally speaking out about the murder of Derrion Albert, a 16-year-old boy who was beaten to death last week in a predominantly African-American neighborhood.
What really set them off was that Obama, in an awkward case of bad timing, instead flew to Copenhagen to pitch Chicago to the International Olympics Committee as the ideal city to host the games in 2016.
I think the critics are being too hard on Obama. Given how ambivalent he seems about Iran and how disinterested he appears in the rest of American foreign policy, it’s nice to see him get passionate about something.
The best Obama could do on Albert were weak comments from White House Press Secretary Robert Gibbs, and only then in response to a question from a reporter, not as part of a formal statement. The president found the video of the beating “chilling,” Gibbs assured us.
Too many young people have become desensitized to violence. This scourge doesn’t discriminate. Today, it’s a videotaped beating of an African-American kid in the inner city by other African-Americans. Yesterday, it was a videotaped beating of a white teenage girl in the suburbs by other white teenage girls.
The beating in Chicago was fatal — and particularly grotesque. An outraged African-American man standing at the site of the beating told CBS News that what had happened there days earlier was an act of “savagery.”
Watching the video, it’s hard to find a better word. We see a melee involving about 50 teenagers that took place near Fenger High School, where Albert was an honors student. We see Albert being hit on the head by another boy from behind with a long wooden board later identified by authorities as a splintered railroad tie.
We see Albert falling to the ground, and when he stands up, we see him punched in the face by a second boy. We see Albert fall again, get up, and return to the floor after getting hit again by a third boy with another board. Then we see a fourth boy stomping on top of Albert’s head. He doesn’t get up.
Prosecutors have charged four teenagers age 16 to 19 with first-degree murder and police say they are looking for three more who were involved in the melee.
This crime is outrageous and heartbreaking. Obviously, if convicted, the four teenagers deserve to spend the rest of their lives behind bars. But what is broken here can’t be fixed by harsh punishment alone.
We’ve raised a generation of predators, one that is willing to kill for a good time. Too many parents have dropped the ball, too many communities are overly permissive, and too many young people think about how random acts of brutality can destroy people’s lives.
There is plenty for Obama to say about this tragedy in the Windy City. And the longer the president waits before he starts talking, the more damage he does to his reputation, even among some of his most ardent supporters.
Judging from what’s being said on talk radio, Web sites and blogs frequented by residents of Chicago, the fact that Obama put the Olympics ahead of responding to the breakdown of the social order in Chi-Town is a slap in the face.
Just yesterday, a self-identified African-American called into “The Rush Limbaugh Show” and complained about how Obama flew off to “a foreign country” while black kids in Chicago are being consumed by violence. The caller wondered when other African-Americans were going to realize that Obama wasn’t like them, because he’s an elitist living an extraordinary life and breathing rarified air.
That sentiment was all over black-oriented blogs. One blogger wrote: “More children died violent deaths in Chicago this year than in any other city in America. But all Obama cares about is bringing the Olympics to a city where basic services like water, sanitation and power often don’t work. … If Chicago does win the bid there will be plenty of police and National Guard on hand to protect the international visitors. That’s more than they are willing to do for their own residents.“
I scrolled through a few dozen posts from readers, some contemptuous of how Obama has been silent about Albert’s murder. Clearly, secondhand comments from the White House press secretary aren’t going to cut it.
In fact, someone compared Obama’s reaction to this societal problem to how he reacted to another one a while back, racial profiling. The person wrote: “u all think that Derrion Albert’s mother will be invited to the White House for beer?”
That stings. The Olympics might be headed to Chicago in 2016, but will the Obamas be there to greet them? When they leave the White House, they might decide to steer clear of Chi-Town and take up residence somewhere else. I hear Hawaii is nice.

Obama is also silent on BLACK GENOCIDE as proved in a new documentary about how the Elitists are trying to exterminate African Americans. The film is called: Maafa21 and here is the trailer:
They Write: Disrespect is respectable to a surprising chunk of people when it’s on a matter of great importance such as abortion, according to a report released today by the Pew Forum on Religion & Public Life and the Pew Research Center for the People & the Press.
Now, the Pew report, released today, finds Americans are divided sharply on whether a view on the legality of abortion that is opposite their own view is a respectable opinion to hold.
While 50% of people who support legal abortion say the view that it should be illegal is a respectable view, 42% say it is not.
And on the flip side, among those who oppose legal abortion, 44% say supporting it is respectable but 47% say it’s not.
Men are more tolerant than women on this, and people under age 50 more tolerant than their elders. Religion has a role as well. The report finds…
52 % of pro-choice evangelical Protestants express respect for the opposing view, compared with 32% of pro-life evangelicals. Among those who attend services weekly or more, those in the pro-choice camp are more likely to respect their opponents than those in the pro-life-camp (49% vs. 37%)
I suppose that Pew nor USA Today has not seen this display of RESPECT from pro-choicer Franke Schaeffer Jr:
The pro-abortion media loves to vilify pro-lifers. Would they want “Church” People to “Respect” opposing views on MURDER? RACISM? SEXUAL ASSAULT?
What USA Today fails to state is how “DISRESPECTFUL” it is to steal a pro-lifer TAX Money to pay for child killing. Where is the respect for that?
Pro-Choicers want “Tolerance” in word alone. They force us to pay $350 million dollars to Planned Parenthood and millions more to Population and Family Planning organizations world-wide by taking our tax dollars. Planned Parenthood was founded on Eugenics and Racism and for that we are suppose to show “respect”? Why don’t they chastise us for not allowing the KKK to openly speak from our pulpits and churches as well?
See how racist they really are by watching this Maafa21 Trailer:
The pro-choice media refuses to show the pictures of aborted children – they censor the truth about abortion then call us “Disrespectful” if we parade around with graphic posters of dead babies. Perhaps if they did their journalistic duties, we would not have to be so vocal.
The truth is that the so-called pro-choice churches and their baby killing politicians and abortion industry friends are trying to pawn so-called “Common Ground” policies
down the throats of the lesser educated pro-life community. Hidden in these meetings is a full on abortion/birth control plan to “reduce abortions” by passing out contraception like candy. And much of this “candy” will involve so-called “morning After” abortion pills. Well, I will NOT buy their snake oil !
If the worst I am called is “Disrespectful” with regard to my tolerance of Child Killing ( abortion) than I stand alongside the great American Abolitionist : William Lloyd Garrison who wrote this about slavery and in response to those critical of his “Rhetoric” in 1831:
. From the opening editorial of The Liberator, January 1, 1831:
I am aware, that many object to the severity of my language; but is there not cause for severity? I will be as harsh as truth, and as uncompromising as justice. On this subject, I do not wish to think, or speak, or write, with moderation. No! no! Tell a man whose house is on fire, to give a moderate alarm; tell him to moderately rescue his wife from the hand of the ravisher; tell the mother to gradually extricate her babe from the fire into which it has fallen; — but urge me not to use moderation in a cause like the present. I am in earnest — I will not equivocate — I will not excuse — I will not retreat a single inch — AND I WILL BE HEARD.
Another well know advocate against slavery was revivalist Charles Finney, said this to The Silent Churches regarding slavery:
( I added the (abortion) word in addition to slavery to give it perspective )

The church must take right ground in regard to politics. Do not suppose, now, that I am going to preach a political sermon, or that I wish to have you join and get up a Christian party in politics. No, I do not believe in that. But the time has come that Christians must vote for honest men, and take consistent ground in politics, or the Lord will curse them. They must be honest men themselves, and instead of voting for a man because he belongs to their party, Bank or Anti-Bank, Jackson, or Anti-Jackson, they must find out whether he is honest and upright, and fit to be trusted. T… God cannot sustain this free and blessed country, which we love and pray for, unless the church will take right ground. Politics are a part of religion in such a country as this, and Christians must do their duty to the country as a part of their duty to God. It seems sometimes as if the foundations of the nation were becoming rotten, and Christians seem to act as if they thought God did not see what they do in politics. But I tell you, he does see it, and he will bless or curse this nation, according to the course they take.
Revivals are hindered when ministers and churches take wrong ground in regard to any question involving human rights. Take the subject of SLAVERY (abortion), for instance. The time was when this subject was not before the public mind. John Newton continued in the slave trade (abortionist trade) after his conversion. And so had his mind been perverted, and so completely was his conscience seared, in regard to this most nefarious traffic, that the sinfulness of it never occurred to his thoughts until some time after he became a child of God. Had light been poured upon his mind previously to his conversion, he never could have been converted without previously abandoning this sin. And after his conversion, when convinced of its iniquity, he could no longer enjoy the presence of God, without abandoning the sin for ever. So, doubtless, many slave dealers and slave holders (abortionists and abortion workers and supporters) in our own country have been converted, notwithstanding their participation in this abomination, because the sinfulness of it was not apparent to their minds. So ministers and churches, to a great extent throughout the land, have held their peace, and borne no testimony against this abominable abomination, existing in the church and in the nation. But recently, the subject has come up for discussion, and the providence of God has brought it distinctly before the eyes of all men. Light is now shed upon this subject, as it has been upon the cause of temperance. Facts are exhibited, and principles established, and light thrown in upon the minds of men, and this monster is dragged from his horrid den, and exhibited before the church, and it is demanded of them, “IS THIS SIN?” Their testimony must be given on this subject. They are God’s witnesses. They are sworn to tell “the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth.” It is impossible that their testimony should not be given, on one side or the other. Their silence can no longer be accounted for upon the principle of ignorance, and that they have never had their attention turned to the subject. Consequently, the silence of Christians upon the subject is virtually saying that they do not consider slavery (abortion) as a sin. The truth is, it is a subject upon which they cannot be silent without guilt. The time has come, in the providence of God, when every southern breeze is loaded down with the cries of lamentation, mourning and wo. Two millions (46 millions unborn) of degraded heathen in our own land stretch their hands, all shackled and bleeding, and send forth to the church of God the agonizing cry for help. And shall the church, in her efforts to reclaim and save the world, deafen her ears to this voice of agony and despair? God forbid. The church cannot turn away from this question. It is a question for the church and for the nation to decide, and God will push it to a decision.It is in vain for the churches to resist it for fear of distraction, contention, and strife. It is in vain to account it an act of piety to turn away the ear from hearing this cry of distress.The church must testify, and testify “the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth,” on this subject, or she is perjured, and the Spirit of God departs from her. She is under oath to testify, and ministers and churches who do not pronounce it sin bear false testimony for God. It is doubtless true that one of the reasons for the low state of religion at the present time is that many churches have taken the wrong side on the subject of slavery (child killing-abortion), have suffered prejudice to prevail over principle, and have feared to call this abomination by its true name….
But I repeat it, the subject of slavery (abortion) is a subject upon which Christians, praying men, need not and must not differ.Another thing to be avoided is an attempt to take neutral ground on this subject. Christians can no more take neutral ground on this subject, since it has come up for discussion, than they can take neutral ground on the subject of the sanctification of the Sabbath. It is a great national sin. It is a sin of the church. The churches by their silence, and by permitting slaveholders to belong to their communion, have been consenting to it. All denominations have been more or less guilty, although the Quakers have of late years washed their hands of it. It is in vain for the churches to pretend it is merely a political sin. I repeat it, it is the sin of the church, to which all denominations have consented. They have virtually declared that it is lawful. The very fact of suffering slaveholders (abortionists) quietly to remain in good standing in their churches, is the strongest and most public expression of their views that it is not sin. For the church, therefore, to pretend to take neutral ground on the subject, is perfectly absurd. The fact is that she is not on neutral ground at all. While she tolerates slaveholders (abortionists, those who have and support abortion) in her communion SHE JUSTIFIES THE PRACTICE. And as well might an enemy of God pretend that he was neither saint nor sinner, that he was going to take neutral ground, and pray “good Lord and good devil,” because he did not know which side would be the most popular…
Still it may be said, that in many churches, this subject cannot be introduced without creating confusion and ill-will. This may be. It has been so upon the subject of temperance, and upon the subject of revivals too. In some churches, neither temperance nor revivals can be introduced without producing dissension. Sabbath-schools, and missionary operations, and everything of the kind have been opposed, and have produced dissensions in many churches. But is this a sufficient reason for excluding these subjects? And where churches have excluded these subjects for fear of contention, have they been blessed with revivals? Every body knows that they have not. But where churches have taken firm ground on these subjects, although individuals and sometimes numbers have opposed, still they have been blessed with revivals. Where any of these subjects are carefully and prayerfully introduced; where they are brought forward with a right spirit, and the true relative importance is attached to each one of them; if in such cases, there are those who will make disturbance and resist, let the blame fall where it ought. There are some individuals, who are themselves disposed to quarrel with this subject, who are always ready to exclaim, “Do not introduce these things into the church, they will create opposition.” And if the minister and praying people feel it their duty to bring the matter forward, they will themselves create a disturbance, and then say, “There, I told you so; now see what your introducing this subject has done; it will tear the church all to pieces.” And while they are themselves doing all they can to create division, they are charging the division upon the subject, and not upon themselves. There are some such people in many of our churches. And neither sabbath-schools, nor missions, nor revivals, nor anti-slavery, nor anything else that honors God or benefits the souls of men, will be carried in the churches, without these careful souls being offended by it…
What is the condition of this nation? No doubt, God is holding the rod of WAR over the heads of this nation. He is waiting before he lets loose his judgments, to see whether the church will do right. The nation is under his displeasure, because the church has conducted in such a manner with respect to revivals. And now suppose war should come, where would be our revivals? How quickly would war swallow up the revival spirit. The spirit of war is anything but the spirit of revivals. Who will attend to the claims of religion, when the public mind is engrossed by the all-absorbing topic of war. See now, how this nation is, all at once, brought upon the brink of war. God brandishes his blazing sword over our heads. Will the church repent? It is THE CHURCH that God chiefly has in view. How shall we avoid the curse of war? Only by a reformation in the church. It is in vain to look to politicians to avert war. Perhaps they would generally be in favor of war. Very likely the things they would do to avert it would run us right into it. If the church will not feel, will not awake, will not act, where shall we look for help? If the church absolutely will not move, will not tremble in view of the just judgments of God hanging over our heads, we are certainly nigh unto cursing, as a nation…Upon the question of slavery (abortion) the church was too late in her testimony to avoid the war. But the slaveholders were much alarmed and exasperated by the constantly growing opposition to their institution throughout all that region of the north where revival influences had been felt. They took up arms to defend and perpetuate the abomination, and by so doing abolished it.
America’s richest people meet to discuss ways of tackling a ‘disastrous’ environmental, social and industrial threat
John Harlow, Los Angeles
SOME of America’s leading billionaires have met secretly to consider how their wealth could be used to slow the growth of the world’s population and speed up improvements in health and education.
The philanthropists who attended a summit convened on the initiative of Bill Gates, the Microsoft co-founder, discussed joining forces to overcome political and religious obstacles to change.
Described as the Good Club by one insider it included David Rockefeller Jr, the patriarch of America’s wealthiest dynasty, Warren Buffett and George Soros, the financiers, Michael Bloomberg, the mayor of New York, and the media moguls Ted Turner and Oprah Winfrey.
These members, along with Gates, have given away more than £45 billion since 1996 to causes ranging from health programmes in developing countries to ghetto schools nearer to home.
They gathered at the home of Sir Paul Nurse, a British Nobel prize biochemist and president of the private Rockefeller University, in Manhattan on May 5. The informal afternoon session was so discreet that some of the billionaires’ aides were told they were at “security briefings”.
Stacy Palmer, editor of the Chronicle of Philanthropy, said the summit was unprecedented. “We only learnt about it afterwards, by accident. Normally these people are happy to talk good causes, but this is different – maybe because they don’t want to be seen as a global cabal,” he said.
Some details were emerging this weekend, however. The billionaires were each given 15 minutes to present their favorite cause. Over dinner they discussed how they might settle on an “umbrella cause” that could harness their interests.
The issues debated included reforming the supervision of overseas aid spending to setting up rural schools and water systems in developing countries. Taking their cue from Gates they agreed that overpopulation was a priority.
This could result in a challenge to some Third World politicians who believe contraception and female education weaken traditional values.
Gates, 53, who is giving away most of his fortune, argued that healthier families, freed from malaria and extreme poverty, would change their habits and have fewer children within half a generation.
At a conference in Long Beach, California, last February, he had made similar points. “Official projections say the world’s population will peak at 9.3 billion [up from 6.6 billion today] but with charitable initiatives, such as better reproductive healthcare, we think we can cap that at 8.3 billion,” Gates said then.
Patricia Stonesifer, former chief executive of the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, which gives more than £2 billion a year to good causes, attended the Rockefeller summit. She said the billionaires met to “discuss how to increase giving” and they intended to “continue the dialogue” over the next few months.
Another guest said there was “nothing as crude as a vote” but a consensus emerged that they would back a strategy in which population growth would be tackled as a potentially disastrous environmental, social and industrial threat.
“This is something so nightmarish that everyone in this group agreed it needs big-brain answers,” said the guest. “They need to be independent of government agencies, which are unable to head off the disaster we all see looming.”
Why all the secrecy? “They wanted to speak rich to rich without worrying anything they said would end up in the newspapers, painting them as an alternative world government,” he said.

Ted Gates and Planned Parenthood:
GATES: When I was growing up, my parents were almost involved in various volunteer things. My dad was head of Planned Parenthood. And it was very controversial to be involved with that. And so it’s fascinating. At the dinner table my parents are very good at sharing the things that they were doing. And almost treating us like adults, talking about that.
My mom was on the United Way group that decides how to allocate the money and looks at all the different charities and makes the very hard decisions about where that pool of funds is going to go. So I always knew there was something about really educating people and giving them choices in terms of family size.
AND ONE OF THE PLANS MANY OF THEM FUND – is BLACK GENOCIDE, by funding abortion/family planning/ and Planned Parenthood as proved in a new documentary: Maafa21:

CNS News By Wesley J. Smith
Oh-oh: Here they come. For years, organ transplant ethicists and some in the bioethics community have agitated to increase the supply of donated organs. There is nothing wrong with that in the abstract, of course. Increasing the supply would alleviate much human suffering and is devoutly to be wished.
But therein lurks a great danger. Increasing supply is a worthy goal only so long as the organs are obtained ethically. But there is a growing chorus among the medical and bioethical intelligentsia to obtain more organs by harvesting living patients. Yes, some of our most influential voices now seek a license to kill for organs.
They don’t put it that bluntly, of course. Rather—reflecting the spirit of our times—advocates argue that our definition of death should be changed to allow a great pretense that living patients are actually dead, thus permitting organ procurement.
For example, the internationally prestigious science journal Nature recently editorialized for the liberalization of the rules governing the declaration of brain death in order to obtain more organs.
Currently, brain death requires the irreversible cessation of all functions of the entire brain and each of its constituent parts. Nature’s editorial claimed—without proof—that doctors obey “the spirit but not the letter, of this law. And many are feeling uncomfortable about it.”
As well they should. But the proper answer to unethical practice isn’t to accommodate wrong behavior by redefining it as right. Rather, it is to work to bring actual methods back into proper alignment with legal and ethical practice.
Instead, Nature descends into rank relativism, arguing that “the legal details of declaring death in someone who will never again be the person he or she was should be weighed against the value of giving a full and healthy life to someone who will die without transplant.”
In other words, some of us are more valuable than others of us, and those deemed inferior can be used as if they were mere natural resources.
In that seductive prescription is the end of human equality and universal rights.
Lest you think I exaggerate, a 2004 article published in the Journal of Medical Ethics seriously proposed that patients diagnosed to be in a persistent vegetative state—like Terri Schiavo—have their kidneys harvested for use in transplantation, and then replaced by pig organs to test whether animal to human transplantation (xenotransplantation) could be performed safely.
“If it can be agreed upon that PVS bodies can be regarded as dead,” Ghent University (Belgium) philosopher An Ravelingien wrote, “then experimenting on them is legitimate under the same conditions as experimenting on cadavers.”
We are not—yet—at the point that society will permit open harvesting and experimentation on cognitively devastated people, but that doesn’t mean we won’t get there.
The slippery slope undermining human exceptionalism—the intrinsic value of human life simply and merely because it is human—is already slip-sliding away. Popular majorities support using nascent human life as corn crops in embryonic stem cell research, if the embryos were “leftovers” and going to be thrown out anyway.
But scientists have already moved beyond that early limitation. Many are now actively researching human cloning toward the end of manufacturing embryos for use and destruction in research.
And it won’t stop there if current trends continue. We already see early advocacy for “fetal farming,” that is, gestating fetuses for use in organ transplantation and medical experimentation.
Thus bioethicist Jacob Appel urged in the Huffington Post that women who intend to abort should be paid to carry their babies into the later stages of pregnancy so that the aborted fetuses can be harvested. He even suggests that fetuses be created solely for this purpose:
Someday, if we are fortunate, scientific research may make possible farms of artificial “wombs” breeding fetuses for their organs – or even the “miracle” of men raising fetuses in their abdomens. That day remains far off. However, the prospect of fetal-adult organ transplantation is a much more realistic near-term possibility.
A market in such organs might benefit both society and the women who choose to take advantage of it. ( Check out: www.lifedynamics.com)
It would be a terrible mistake to say, “It can’t happen here.” For as the late theologian Fr. Richard John Neuhaus once wrote, “Thousands of medical ethicists and bioethicists, as they are called, professionally guide the unthinkable on its passage through the debatable on its way to becoming the justifiable, until it is finally established as the unexceptionable.”
That process is steaming full speed ahead in the related fields of organ transplantation and biotechnology. The only way to stop this dehumanizing agenda is to take notice and push back before it is too late. Some things should ever and always be unthinkable.
Wesley J. Smith is a senior fellow at the Discovery Institute, where he directs the Center for Human Rights and Bioethics. He is the author of 12 books and his next is “A Rat Is a Pig Is a Dog Is a Boy: The Human Cost of the Animal Rights Movement” (Encounter Books, January 2010).
In April of 1997, Life Dynamics began an undercover investigation into the marketing of body parts harvested from babies killed by elective abortions. This investigation lasted approximately 31 months. Most of the information in this report was provided by employees who worked at Comprehensive Health for Women (Comp Health) – a Planned Parenthood abortion clinic located in Overland Park, Kansas.

As if we never had EUGENICS before is this country – Maafa21 tells us it is still going on today:
WASHINGTON (CNN) — The U.S. military wants to establish regional teams of military personnel to assist civilian authorities in the event of a significant outbreak of the H1N1 virus this fall, according to Defense Department officials.
The proposal is awaiting final approval from Defense Secretary Robert Gates.
The officials would not be identified because the proposal from U.S. Northern Command’s Gen. Victor Renuart has not been approved by the secretary.
The plan calls for military task forces to work in conjunction with the Federal Emergency Management Agency. There is no final decision on how the military effort would be manned, but one source said it would likely include personnel from all branches of the military.
It has yet to be determined how many troops would be needed and whether they would come from the active duty or the National Guard and Reserve forces.
Civilian authorities would lead any relief efforts in the event of a major outbreak, the official said. The military, as they would for a natural disaster or other significant emergency situation, could provide support and fulfill any tasks that civilian authorities could not, such as air transport or testing of large numbers of viral samples from infected patients.
As a first step, Gates is being asked to sign a so-called “execution order” that would authorize the military to begin to conduct the detailed planning to execute the proposed plan.
Orders to deploy actual forces would be reviewed later, depending on how much of a health threat the flu poses this fall, the officials said.
The 1st of the 3rd is still scheduled to deploy to either Iraq or Afghanistan in early 2010, which means the soldiers will have been home a minimum of 20 months by the time they ship out.
In the meantime, they’ll learn new skills, use some of the ones they acquired in the war zone and more than likely will not be shot at while doing any of it.
They may be called upon to help with civil unrest and crowd control or to deal with potentially horrific scenarios such as massive poisoning and chaos in response to a chemical, biological, radiological, nuclear or high-yield explosive, or CBRNE, attack…The brigade will not change its name, but the force will be known for the next year as a CBRNE Consequence Management Response Force, or CCMRF (pronounced “sea-smurf”).
And in Maine- this report National Guard drill at high school to prepare for possible H1N1 riot
Oxford Hills Comprehensive High School will be the site of a National Guard riot control drill Thursday morning to prepare in the event of a panic over distribution of serum to treat the swine flu.
The decision this month to permanently deploy a U.S. Army brigade inside the U.S. for purely domestic law enforcement purposes is the fruit of the Congressional elimination of the long-standing prohibitions in Posse Comitatus (although there are credible signs that even before Congress acted, the Bush administration secretly decided it possessed the inherent power to violate the Act). It shouldn’t take any efforts to explain why the permanent deployment of the U.S. military inside American cities, acting as the President’s police force, is so disturbing. James Bovard:
“Martial law” is a euphemism for military dictatorship. When foreign democracies are overthrown and a junta establishes martial law, Americans usually recognize that a fundamental change has occurred. . . . Section 1076 is Enabling Act-type legislation—something that purports to preserve law-and-order while formally empowering the president to rule by decree.
The Obama administration is quietly dusting off an effort to impose new federal quarantine regulations, which were vigorously resisted by civil liberties organizations and the airline industry when the rules were first proposed by the Bush administration nearly four years ago.White House officials aren’t saying what their rules might ultimately require. But the previous administration proposed giving the federal government the authority to order a “provisional quarantine” of three business days — or up to six calendar days — for those suspected of having swine flu or other illnesses listed in a presidential executive order.
The proposed regulation also is consistent with the ‘‘search and seizure’’ requirements of the Fourth Amendment. Authority to ‘‘search and seize’’ in the form of inspections, detentions, and quarantine has long existed under the Public Health Service Act and the current regulations. The Fourth Amendment to the U.S. constitution provides that ‘‘[t]he right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, shall not be violated, and no warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause. * * *’’ Courts have held, however, that not all types of searches and seizures necessarily require probable cause and a warrant. Searches and seizures conducted with the consent of an authorized person and those searches and seizures that are conducted to avert an imminent threat to health or safety do not run afoul of the Fourth Amendment even when conducted without probable cause and a warrant.
All this reporting creates hysteria like this YouTube video
This individual needs to go public with her full name and position because she will already be known to authorities. By remaining anonymous to the public only, her testimony can be dismissed as just someone ranting on You Tube. However, her statements about tracking people who have taken the vaccine via RFID bracelets is something that has already been beta tested by health authorities.
Former Kansas state trooper Greg Evensen underscored this claim back in July. “Have you been made aware of the massive roadblock plans to stop all travelers for a vaccine bracelet (stainless steel band with a micro-chip on board) that will force you to take the shot?” Evensen wrote on July 29. “Refuse it? You will be placed on a prison bus and taken to a quarantine camp. What will you do when your children are NOT allowed into school without the shot? What will you do when you are not allowed into the workplace without the vaccine paperwork? Buy groceries? Go to the bank? Shop anywhere?? Get on a plane, bus or train? Use the toilet in the mall? Nope. Police officers will become loathed, feared, despised and remembered for their ‘official’ duties.”
Former Ohio Secretary Of State Ken Blackwell Responds To Charges Of ‘Racism’ For Opposing Obama’s Politics
I’ve been called a lot of things in my long political career. But I’ve never before been called a racist. I’m reminded of Alfred E. Neumann-the crazy, grinning boy on the cover of the old MAD Magazine. His motto was: What, me worry? What, me racist?
How did I manage this unusual trick? Well, two former Presidents-Jimmy Carter and now Bill Clinton-have labeled me such. Why? Because I oppose President Obama’s takeover of our health care system. We’re celebrating 200 years this December of the great Samuel Johnson who said “patriotism is the last refuge of scoundrels.” Today, Dr. Johnson might say charging racism is the first refuge of liberals.
We all celebrated the election of a black man as President. This was long overdue and something in which all Americans can take justifiable pride. But that very election should have put an end to false and irresponsible charges of racism. We were promised that this President would be a “post-racial President,” weren’t we? If America were the racist place that Jimmy and Slick Willie charge, Barack Obama would still be a state Senator in Springfield, Illinois.
I oppose President Obama’s health care takeover for many reasons. It will require $500 billion in cuts in Medicare. We’re told that that will all come from cutting out “waste, fraud, and abuse.” Hmmmm. They tell us there’s half a trillion dollars of waste, fraud, and abuse in the government’s premier social program now, but there won’t be any waste, fraud, and abuse when the government has total control of health care? That just doesn’t make sense.
How are you going to cut $500 billion out of Medicare without seriously jeopardizing the care American seniors currently get. I believe such cuts will have a disparate impact on poor and elderly minorities. It’s certainly strange to get labeled a racist by two wealthy, white Southerners because I voice concern for minority seniors!
I also oppose President Obama’s plan because I believe it will give huge federal subsidies for abortion. We know Planned Parenthood’s long record of targeting minority communities for abortion. Recently, Lila Rose and other young people exposed Planned Parenthood’s racist practices. They offered donations to the nation’s largest abortion trafficker if they would be earmarked for minority women. Planned Parenthood’s local reps were only too happy to pocket that money. We know that the ratio of black women’s abortions to white women is 3:1. Three to one! Every abortion is a tragedy, but when you see such a disparity, you know that something evil is afoot. It’s no accident.
Finally, I oppose President Obama’s plan because I believe it does not address one of the basic causes of the spike in health care costs: frivolous malpractice suits. Former Gov. Howard Dean is a medical doctor, a former Democratic National Chairman, and an outspoken liberal. But he let the cat out of the bag when he admitted that the real reason the health care plan does not address frivolous malpractice suits is because the party does not want to lean on the powerful trial lawyers’ lobby. Such comments-spoken out of hearing of his “handlers”-may be why President Obama asked another governor, Virginia’s Tim Kaine, to become the new Democratic National Chairman. Howling Howard was too much of a loose cannon.
President Obama has called for civility in this debate. I’m all for that. And he’s dismissed reckless and irresponsible charges of racism among his opponents. He humorously told David Letterman’s audience “I was black before the election.” Right! Maybe he should invite Jimmy Carter and Bill Clinton to the White House for a beer.
Please take the time to listen to this entire program- Jay Sekulow will explain all the Health Care Bills on the table and how President Obama is lying when he says that it will not fund abortions. This was a great show- and explains everything with great passion and easy to understand. Jay is an attorney so he cuts past all the Obama smokescreens.

Shocking fact:
In a recent New York Times interview , Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg told Emily Bazelon that, “…I had thought that at the time Roe was decided, there was concern about population growth and particularly growth in populations that we don’t want to have too many of.”
RIVERSIDE, Calif., Oct. 6 /Christian Newswire/ — A Planned Parenthood abortion patient was rushed to the hospital by ambulance on Saturday morning, October 3, 2009, according to eyewitnesses who photographed the incident.
This is the third reported emergency transport from a Southern California Planned Parenthood abortion clinic within the past three weeks. Two similar incidents occurred at the Planned Parenthood in Orange, California, on September 16 and 26.
According to pro-life sidewalk counselors, first a fire truck arrived at the Planned Parenthood abortion clinic in Riverside, California, followed by an ambulance with lights on and sirens blaring. Witnesses observed that a female patient was removed from the building on a gurney. She was loaded into the awaiting ambulance, which sped away without the use of lights or sirens.
The woman’s condition is unknown.
“Three medical emergencies in three weeks tells us that these Planned Parenthood abortion mills are experiencing some grave internal problems,” said Operation Rescue President Troy Newman. “Whatever their problems are, they are placing the lives of women at risk.“
Pro-lifers have seen an increase in suspicious activity at the Riverside abortion clinic. One sidewalk counselor reported that two security guards stood near her with their hands on their guns in an effort to intimidate the women who were peacefully offering practical help and alternatives to abortion-bound women.
Similar accounts of security personnel using intimidation tactics were reported by pro-life activists outside the Planned Parenthood in Orange County.
Meanwhile, sidewalk counselors in Orange have made flyers with photos of the ambulances at the Planned Parenthood and are handing them out to women seeking abortions. The flyers warn women that they could be next.
Since doing this, one activist reported that he was able to turn around one, possibly two women from having abortions for the first time in several weeks.
“We want to encourage pro-lifers as they stand outside their local abortion clinics to be prepared to document incidents by always having a camera,” said Newman. “The pictures taken by alert sidewalk counselors just a few days ago are now saving lives and warning women of the dangers of abortion.”
“We have never seen a safe abortion clinic – only ones that haven’t been caught yet,” said Newman. “We pray that by exposing these abortion injuries and working through the legal system to hold those responsible accountable, that the clinics will ultimately close.”
This is Connie’s eye-witness testimony…this is exactly what happened on Sept. 16 at around 11:00 AM.
A group of people (3 adults and 3 kids) and myself were praying outside Planned Parenthood located on 700 N. Tustin in the city of Orange, we saw emergency vehicles coming (fire truck and ambulance) with sirens ON.
They got inside the building and stayed in there for about 10 to 15min and than they came out with a girl they put her in the ambulance and took her to the hospital together with one of the medical personnel (nurse).
As I saw what was happening I took my cell phone and started taking pictures, as I was taking the pictures a lady came out of the office and took some pictures of me.
A few minutes latter a worker that was coming in his car as soon as he saw me taking pictures, he too, using his cell phone took some pictures of me.
- Connie
Second Incident (reported by Tim):
I was a witness to this incident as were several others.
On Saturday 9/26 at approximately 11:10 a.m. an ambulance and fire truck arrived at the Planned Parenthood at 700 Tustin Ave. They entered, removed the woman on a gurney and then vacated the parking lot after being there about 10 minutes.
Another man named Ryan who accompanies me used his cell phone to take pictures. The privately contracted security guard (one has been there every Saturday with the exception of the week after the 4th of July since the shooting of Tiller) was sent out by clinic personnel to take pictures of us taking our pictures of the scene. He will often take pictures of us and take notes on our activities.
The Planned Parenthood has sought to involve Federal and other government agencies as well as lawyers in an effort to shut down our particular method. The undertaking of legal proceedings has been threatened several times if we do not desist in our tactics. These threats have never been issued from Planned Parenthood itself but I have been warned about it from the police and the security guard. All of this seems to have cooled down, however, of late because the influence of the security guard has neutralized much of what we were accomplishing before.
The doctor (who I believe was David M. Speiser) was observed to arrive some time earlier in a blue Lexus with the license plates on the front and back covered with pieces of paper (something he does every week).
With a high degree of probability in my judgment Merle Robboy and Jonathon Dunn have been seen at the clinic, though I am near certain that they were not present on 9/26 (as far as I can tell the clinic operates with one doctor and several nurses and medical assistants).
More Audion on 911 calls to abortion clinics and abortion clinic YUK! Here
CBS News reported March 3, 2009, of the arrest of Belkis Gonzalez, owner of the now defunct A Gyn Diagnostic abortion mill in Hialeah, FL. In July 2006 Gonzalez allegedly cut the cord of a living abortion survivor and zipped the baby in a biohazad bag.
Gonzalez then allegedly hid the baby on the clinic roof when an anonymous tipster notified police.
Police eventually retrieved the baby, matching her DNA to her mother’s, who police located.
Belkis is being charged with practicing medicine without a license and tampering with evidence. She is tragically NOT being rightfully charged with murder.
By any measure, the response to Maafa 21 has been astonishing.
It is routinely being called “stunning,” “breathtaking,” and “jaw-dropping.” Many viewers have said they were left “speechless” by what they saw and several have told us that it filled them with anger. One African-American pastor and 1960’s civil rights activist said, “I had always been suspicious about some of this stuff, but this film connects the dots in a way I never really understood before.” Another described it as “lightening in a bottle” and said that for the first time in his life has a tool to educate the African-American community about the abortion lobby’s real agenda.
It has never been a secret that one of the pro-life movement’s biggest frustrations has been its inability to effectively recruit the African-American community. Despite the fact that polls consistently show that blacks are more pro-life than whites, that reality has not translated into them joining the battle in significant numbers.
But with the launch of Maafa 21, that is changing and even though we are just getting started the message is spreading like wildfire. The internet and YouTube are buzzing with Maafa 21; one conservative radio talk show purchased 750 copies for his audience and it has been shown twice in the Capitol Visitor Center Theater in Washington. This was done through the help of Congressman Trent Franks and, after the showing, one African-American woman who works as an aid to a pro-choice member of the Congressional Black Caucus said, “I was moved to tears. I came in here with an opposite mindset and I am leaving with another. My life has been changed forever.”
Another example of the power of Maafa 21 was seen when Rev. Clenard Childress assembled a team of black street activists who gave out 400 copies of Maafa 21 to credentialed members of the NAACP at their recent four-day national convention. The response was incredible with many people taking the DVD back to their hotel room to watch at night and then returning the next day to ask what they could do to help. In fact, one of those who did exactly that was an NAACP attorney. Clenard also found strong support among the younger convention goers and one professor at a historically black college said he was going to make Maafa 21 part of his curriculum.
One thing that made Clenard’s NAACP effort so successful was a statement by Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg. Just days before the convention began, she was quoted in the New York Times saying, “Frankly I had thought that at the time Roe was decided, there was concern about population growth and particularly growth in populations that we don’t want to have too many of.”
Think about that for a moment. Here is the most radically pro-abortion member of the United States Supreme Court admitting that the driving force behind the legalization of abortion was not “women’s rights” or “privacy” or “reproductive freedom” as we’ve been told. She says that the motivation for it was EUGENICS, which is precisely what Maafa 21 documents! We could not have bought a public relations victory like that for a billion dollars and here it was being given to us for free. Clenard told me that whenever his team repeated that quote to the convention participants, even those who were the most skeptical about Maafa 21 were suddenly quite interested. It seems they were aware of who the “population” was that Ginsburg and her cronies did not “want to have too many of.”
We are especially excited about how Maafa 21 is opening doors for us into areas where the pro-life message has seldom been heard and often unwelcomed. Liberal “peace and justice” groups are starting to have Maafa 21 showings on college campuses. And some “Afro-Centric” groups who are not necessarily Christian and have generally been disinterested in the abortion issue, are now actively promoting Maafa 21.
An example of this is a California man named Keidi Obi Awadu. Keidi is the founder of Black Star Media and the Living in Black Radio Network and he has an international audience. Already, he has personally bought over 100 copies of Maafa 21 and has helped us secure someone to distribute the film in England. Keidi has also become instrumental in an effort to have it shown at predominately black colleges and universities across America. To put it mildly, Keidi and his people are on fire for Maafa 21.
Another thing we are finding is that Maafa 21 is not simply impacting the African-American community. We are already seeing whites–especially those who are high school and college aged–becoming outraged and then activated by what it documents.
Those who are familiar with Life Dynamics know that we have been responsible for some of the most explosive revelations about the abortion industry in the history of this battle. In just two high-profile examples, we uncovered the lucrative trade in baby body parts and we later exposed the abortion industry’s nationwide pedophile protection racket. But as enormous as those stories were, I can honestly tell you that I have never seen anything have the impact of Maafa 21. Although we are only at the beginning, it is clear that this film is going to grow our movement and change our image for the better. It is also bringing a fresh level of energy and excitement by recruiting the reinforcements our battle-weary troops have desperately needed for years.
So stay tuned. Like I said, we’re just getting started. By the way, if you haven’t seen Maafa 21 yet, check out the two-minute trailer for it at Maafa21.com. That website also contains some insightful comments from previous viewers.

It’s about the ties between the Nazis, the American eugenics movement and today’s “family planning” cartel. It’s about elitism, secret agendas, treachery and corruption at the highest levels of political and corporate America.

They were stolen from their homes, locked in chains and taken across an ocean. And for more than 200 years, their blood and sweat would be used to build the richest and most powerful nation the world has ever known. But when slavery ended, their welcome was over. America’s wealthy elite had decided it was time
for them to disappear and they were not particular about how it might be done. Now, a stunning new movie called Maafa 21 documents with incredible detail that
the plan these people set in motion 150 years ago is still being carried out today.
Maafa 21 is about eugenics, and elitism, and well-hidden racial agendas. It’s about treachery and corruption at the highest levels of political and corporate America.

Dr Watson, who now runs one of America’s leading scientific research institutions, made the controversial remarks in an interview in The Sunday Times.
The 79-year-old geneticist said he was “inherently gloomy about the prospect of Africa” because “all our social policies are based on the fact that their intelligence is the same as ours – whereas all the testing says not really“.
He said he hoped that everyone was equal, but countered that “people who have to deal with black employees find this not true“.
the Swedes have not always acted benevolently, as reported on page A1 of the August 29, 1997, Washington Post,
From 1934 to 1974, 62,000 Swedes were sterilized as part of a national program grounded in the science of racial biology and carried out by officials who believed they were helping to build a progressive, enlightened welfare state…In some cases, couples judged to be inferior parents were sterilized, as were their children when they became teenagers.
Shockley co-invented the transistor, for which all three were awarded the 1956 Nobel Prize in Physics….
Shockley became famous in his later career for supporting the controversial genetic hypothesis of race and intelligence.
Major Findings of Dr. Shockley
Dr. William Shockley is a professor at Stanford University in Calif. Basically the following constitute his views after many years of painstaking study and research.
1) Historically, blacks have an I.Q. 15 points lower than that of the average White. The difference is due to heredity and not environment.
2) Positive traits found in high I.Q. people include honesty, resistance to cheating and physical capacity. It takes such good traits to develop and maintain a good society.
3) Parents who have high I.Q.s have high I.Q. children and the opposite is true for those with low I.Q.s.
4) We live in a Dark Age dogmatism which blocks objective studies of the I.Q. differences which exist.
5) Low I.Q. blacks and Mexicans are outbreeding Whites. This element is the major cause of poverty, crime and unemployment and a host of other human miseries that impose heavy burdens on society. Today we are breeding problem makers instead of problem solvers . People with the low I.Q. of ‘80 make up a majority of the prison population of America. (Average White I.Q. is 105).
6) Low I.Q. blacks are bearing twice as many children as Whites and Aid to Dependent Children is doubling every 10 years. Thus it will be 1,000 times higher than it was 20 years ago in a century, creating a burden society cannot bear.
7) Negroes’ intellectual and social deficits are hereditary and racially genetic. Thus, they are not remediable by improving their environment. Negroes are genetically enslaved to a life of frustration and may be the root cause of urban decay. It is possible that welfare mothers have babies to increase their income.
And here is another Elitist Racist : Garrett Hardin BRILLIANT
The most important aspect of necessity that we must now recognize, is the necessity of abandoning the commons in breeding. No technical solution can rescue us from the misery of overpopulation. Freedom to breed will bring ruin to all. At the moment, to avoid hard decisions many of us are tempted to propagandize for conscience and responsible parenthood. The temptation must be resisted, because an appeal to independently acting consciences selects for the disappearance of all conscience in the long run, and an increase in anxiety in the short.
The only way we can preserve and nurture other and more precious freedoms is by relinquishing the freedom to breed, and that very soon. “Freedom is the recognition of necessity”–and it is the role of education to reveal to all the necessity of abandoning the freedom to breed. Only so, can we put an end to this aspect of the tragedy of the commons.
Hardin sounds like : John Paul Holdren, President Obama’s Science Czar
In the 1970’s President Obama’s Science Czar, Paul Holdren, published many books, several which were co-authored with radical population control guru, Paul Ehrlich. Holdren stated officially that one of his mentors was a Professor he had by the name of Paul Harrison.
Harrison suggested that infanticide was a legitimate form of population control when he wrote this in his book, The Challenge of Man’s Future, from page 87 . ” In the absence of restraint abortion, sterilization, coitus interruptus, or artificial fertility control, the resultant high birth rate would have to be matched at equilibrium by an equally high death rate. A major contribution to the high death rate could be infanticide, as has been the situation in cultures of the past.“
Holdren asked this question in an article authored by him, which was published a book entitled, No Growth Society,
” Why, then, should we compound our plight by permitting population growth to continue?” He stated clearly that in the 1970’s the US had already exceeded its “optimum population size of 210 million” (pg. 41) and concluded that , ” it should be obvious that the optimum rate of population growth is zero or negative…“
Oh and didn’t President Obama just win the Nobel Peace Prize? Hmmm….

Planned Parenthood of Montana has announced it is closing its Kalispell clinic next month due to a decline in patients.
The clinic, which opened a little more than four years ago, plans to close on Nov. 20.
Planned Parenthood directors saying they’ve seen a drop in patients for the four year old facility.
Stacy James, president and chief executive officer of Planned Parenthood of Montana, said the board met a few weeks ago and made the decision.
Planed Parenthood (national) is being accused by pro-lifers for covering for child predators. When undercover cameras were brought into Planned Parenthood they caught several clinics across the nation covering up when young teenage girls admitted to sexual relationships with adult men.
Recently a pro-life organization, Life Dynamics, released a 2 hour documentary which ties slavery, eugenics, and Black Genocide to abortion and mostly to the nation’s top abortion provider: Planned Parenthood. The documentary is called: Maafa21 and it clearly and flawlessly shows viewers documents, video, audio, books, and quotes of the connections between Planned Parenthood founder, Margaret Sanger, her friends, and her board members to Eugenics organizations. Maafa21 also shows how racist motives are what drives abortions with the Planned Parenthood organization. Backing this claim up is actual video of former Planned Parenthood President, Faye Wattleton admitting that Planned Parenthood receives racist donations. Also backing this claim up are quotes from racist Sanger board members, and a quote from Alan Guttmacher, former Planned Parenthood President and Vice-President of the American Eugenics Society. Guttmacher is also known for founding the Alan Guttmacher Institute, known as the research arm of Planned Parenthood.
The Revs. Al Sharpton and Jesse Jackson attacked the bid by Rush Limbaugh to buy the St. Louis Rams on Monday, saying the conservative radio host’s track record on race should exclude him from owning an NFL team.
Sharpton sent a letter to NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell, arguing that Limbaugh has been divisive and “anti-NFL” in some of his comments.
Jackson said in a telephone interview that Limbaugh had made his wealth “appealing to the fears of whites” with an unending line of insults against blacks and other minorities.
I am wondering when Jesse Jackson and Rev. Al Sharpton will protest the $350 plus millions of tax dollars that Planned Parenthood receives each year because they target African Americans for Black Genocide by abortion. Jackson used to be an ardent voice against the targeting of blacks by the family planners.
Jackson once stated, “It is strange that they choose to start talking about population control at the same time that Black people in America and people of color around the world are demanding their rightful place as human citizens and their rightful share of the material wealth in the world.”
Is Jackson and Sharpton in agreement with the way Planned Parenthood targets the black race or do they keep silent because of political reasons?
Perhaps if Sharpton and Jesse Jackson viewed a lengthy documentary on abortion and Black Genocide, called Maafa21, they would have a change of heart on this matter.
According to the Rev. Clenard Childress, “The truth is, Al Sharpton wouldn’t dare raise his voice due to his own proclivity to support the abortion ideology. … Rev. Sharpton … has been absolutely and utterly silent on the racism of Planned Parenthood and the execution of over 15 million African-American children under the watch of those who took a vow to preserve their lives.
Has anyone noted the silence of the NAACP on the racism of Planned Parenthood? …The NAACP, once the vanguard and protector of the Black Community, has become the personification of liberal thinking and has also refused to condemn the racism at Planned Parenthood. This should not surprise anyone since the NAACP censored the Macon chapter in Georgia due to a resolution submitted that had abortion content. They refused to read it to the body, a clear violation of their own by laws. No, there will be no discussion on race here either as long as Planned Parenthood is in the discussion. It is obvious that the “author of racism” does matter with the NAACP.
And there is Jessie Jackson of the Rainbow Coalition. He led a march of about fifty protestors demanding the firing of Don Imus, saying, “Three strikes you’re out ought to apply to this position.” Not many know what Jackson wrote in a 1000 word essay to the National Right to Life News in January 1977 some thirty-one years ago. He said:
“There are those who argue that the right to privacy is of higher order than the right to life. I do not share that view. I believe that life is not private, but rather it is public and universal. If one accepts the position that life is private, and therefore you have the right to do with it as you please, one must also accept the conclusion of that logic. That was the premise of slavery. You could not protest the existence or treatment of slaves on the plantation because that was private and therefore outside of your right to concerned.
“Another area that concerns me greatly, namely because I know how it has been used with regard to race, is the psycholinguistics involved in this whole issue of abortion. If something can be dehumanized through the rhetoric used to describe it, then the major battle has been won…. Those advocates of taking life prior to birth do not call it killing or murder; they call it abortion. They further never talk about aborting a baby because that would imply something human. Rather they talk about aborting the fetus. Fetus sounds less than human and therefore can be justified.
“What happens to the mind of a person, and the moral fabric of a nation, that accepts the aborting of the life of a baby without a pang of conscience? What kind of a person, and what kind of a society will we have 20 years hence if life can be taken so casually?“
Without question, Rev. Jackson’s conscience must be seared, for these thirty-one years later, he is now firmly pro-abortion. And what was his response to this “Third Reich” mindset? You guessed it: Nothing! So I ask: what does happen to the mind of a person that accepts the aborting of a baby without a pang of conscience? Jessie Jackson knows, because more then most, he can now answer his own question. The senator from Illinois was right when he said, “race is an important issue that I believe this nation cannot afford to ignore right now.” In truth, we really do need a real discussion on race, not just more rhetorical window dressing. We need to discuss why we’re allowing the destruction of our race and who has sold us out.“
Jesse and Rev. Al- Please get Maafa21 and get educated !
This weekend, the radically pro-abortion organization: Religious Coalition for Reproductive Choice, is hosting a , “Weekend of Prayerful Affirmation and Action for the Safety of Clinic Workers.”
RCRC is asking pro-abortion people to, “Join with congregations and [ alleged] communities of faith throughout the nation in spiritually or prayerfully affirming the work of doctors, nurses, administrators, counselors, and all other abortion clinic workers.”
Claiming that abortionists who murder babies , ” willingly put themselves in danger of harassment or violence so that women have access to abortion and other reproductive services. “
RCRC sites the recent murder of late-term abortion doctor, George Tiller as an example, telling their followers to, ” let America know that people of faith stand together in spiritual, prayerful support of clinic workers. “
They list a number of ways you can “Show your support” for baby killing:
1) Include a prayer in your worship service on behalf of clinic workers.
2) Invite a staff member of a local clinic to your service to receive a blessing or say a few words about his/her work.
3) Give a sermon about the work of clinic staff and the danger to staff and patients of the ongoing violence and harassment from extremist groups at clinics.
4) Gather signatures on a petition to support universal access to reproductive health services.
5) Write and send thank you notes or prayer cards to the staff of a local clinic.
Perhaps they could add this to their list:
1). Pray for an end to PRO-CHOICE VIOLENCE both in the womb and out !
Pro-choicers target, threaten, and harass pro-life people daily. Just this year a pro-choice activist murdered a pro-lifer in cold blood. James Pouillon was standing on a public sidewalk carrying a sign which simply said, “LIFE”.
2). Perhaps they could ask for prayer for the many pro-choice women who enter these abortion clinics thinking their procedure will be “Safe” and leave injured, raped, or even killed.
By any measure, the response to Maafa 21 has been astonishing.
It is routinely being called “stunning,” “breathtaking,” and “jaw-dropping.” Many viewers have said they were left “speechless” by what they saw and several have told us that it filled them with anger.

Former Labor Secretary and Obama adviser Robert Reich speaking at UC Berkeley on Sept. 26, 2007
“Thank you so much for coming this afternoon. I’m so glad to see you, and I would like to be president. Let me tell you a few things on health care. Look, we have the only health-care system in the world that is designed to avoid sick people. [laughter] That’s true, and what I’m going to do is I am going to try to reorganize it to be more amenable to treating sick people. But that means you–particularly you young people, particularly you young, healthy people–you’re going to have to pay more. [applause] Thank you.
“And by the way, we are going to have to–if you’re very old, we’re not going to give you all that technology and all those drugs for the last couple of years of your life to keep you maybe going for another couple of months. It’s too expensive, so we’re going to let you die. [applause]
“Also, I’m going to use the bargaining leverage of the federal government in terms of Medicare, Medicaid–we already have a lot of bargaining leverage–to force drug companies and insurance companies and medical suppliers to reduce their costs. But that means less innovation, and that means less new products and less new drugs on the market, which means you are probably not going to live that much longer than your parents. [applause] Thank you.”
At around 4am on Monday, a friend of mine was woken by a call from the private care home in south-west London where her 98-year-old grandmother is resident.
“Mrs ——- has breathing difficulties,” the night manager told her.
“She needs oxygen. Shall we …
“What do you mean?” my friend responded. “What’s the matter with her?“
“She needs to go to hospital. Do you want that? Or would you prefer that we make her comfortable?”
Befuddled by sleep, she didn’t immediately grasp what was being asked of her. Her grandmother is immobilised by a calcified knee joint, which is why she is in the home. She’s a little deaf and frail, but otherwise perky. She reads a newspaper every day (without glasses), and is a fan of the darling of daytime television, David Dickinson. Why wouldn’t she get medical treatment if she needed it?
Then, the chilling implication of the phone call filtered through – she was being asked whether her grandmother should be allowed to die.
“Call an ambulance now,” my friend demanded.
The person at the other end persisted. “Are you sure that’s what you want? For her to go to hospital.”
“Yes, absolutely. Get her to hospital.”
The Daily Telegraph reported two cases this week. Hazel Fenton, an 80-year-old from Sussex, was admitted to hospital in January with pneumonia and put on the Pathway regimen. Her daughter, Christine Ball, fought to stop her mother from being left to “starve and dehydrate to death“
Gloria Feldt, former president of Planned Parenthood Federation of America recognizes Sanger’s involvement with eugenics as “the most difficult stain” to remove from Sanger’s legacy.
In a recent lecture, titled “Convictions to Action: Margaret Sanger’s Legacy and Leadership Lessons”, Feldt stated “.
Those opposed to women’s equality in any form will always use it against her and the movement she founded, even though she more than redeemed herself and was among the first U.S leaders to denounce Hitler.”The lecture took place at the Elizabeth Sackler Center for Feminist Art at the Brooklyn Museum on September 13.
Feldt continued the lecture by failing to show Sanger’s connections to both Eugenics Members and Thinkers as well as racists. She failed to show how Sanger tried to merge her “Birth Control Review” with the publication of the American Eugenics Society.
