"Choice" Takes a Breath

We’ve all heard the fetus vs. child argument beaten to death … but what happens when the supposed fetus is “accidentally” born a child and then literally killed?

That’s the scenario that played out in a Florida abortion clinic where an infant girl targeted for an abortion was unintentionally birthed alive – and then allegedly placed in a bag and tossed with the trash, only to have her decomposing body recovered a week later.

As the AP reports, it all started when Sycloria Williams, 18 years old and 23 weeks pregnant, went to an abortion clinic outside of Miami to obtain an abortion. The account continues:

[Dr. Pierre Jean-Jacque] Renelique gave Williams laminaria, a drug that dilates the cervix, and prescribed three other medications, according to the administrative complaint filed by the Health Department. She was told to go to yet another clinic, A Gyn Diagnostic Center in Hialeah, where the procedure would be performed the next day, on July 20, 2006.

Williams arrived in the morning and was given more medication.

The Department of Health account continues as follows: Just before noon she began to feel ill. The clinic contacted Renelique. Two hours later, he still hadn't shown up. Williams went into labor and delivered the baby.

According to the lawsuit filed by Williams, Belkis Gonzalez, one of the clinic’s owners, then knocked the baby from the chair where Williams had given birth and then placed the baby, unclamped placenta, and afterbirth into a biohazard bag and threw it out with the trash.

An autopsy conducted on the remains concluded that the baby – whom Williams named Shanice – had filled her lungs with air.

In other words, Shanice was born alive.

Not a “fetus” but a child. Not a “choice” but a baby. Not an unnamed statistic but Shanice.

This morning, the AP reported that the Florida Board of Medicine has found Dr. Renelique “guilty of medical malpractice and delegating responsibility to unlicensed personnel” and has revoked his license.

Lest anyone think this Florida horror is an isolated incident, history proves otherwise. In 1999, nurse-turned pro-life advocate Jill Stanek exposed Christ Hospital in Oak Lawn. Illinois for allowing aborted babies who were born alive to die on shelves. And last year, a murder investigation was opened after Kansas abortionist Shelley Sella allegedly stabbed to death a baby born alive after an abortion.

Abortion advocates disguise the horrific truths about the abortion industry behind innocuous terms like “choice” and “family planning.”  But what happens when that “choice” takes a breath of her own?

In Florida, Shanice did. In Kansas and Illinois, they did – and met with cruel and horrific deaths because of it.

Meet the face of “choice” in America.

To think because of the “thoughtful” voters we now have the most rabid pro-abortion/infantacide murderer in the White House ever. God Help the USA.

He cares more about the comfort of terrorists than for innocent babies. Evil personified.

So, what is likely to happen the the murderer who placed the baby in the trash? Spank her hands and say bad girl. She should be treated just like any other murderer.

I suppose the “choice” is whether comes in in the type of death they prefer for the baby (RU486, dismemberment, etc.) Gotta love those euphemisisms they use to assuage their consciences (if they have any).

Most are not necessarily pro-death but are so unbelievably selfish and amoral that they just don’t care about what happens to innocent children. This indifference is nothing new, just humanity at its worst.

The Fuhrer is angry because she didn’t do the killing “properly”. This is sort of like those SS personnel who get scolded for not putting the Jews in the proper lines.

There are two camps:

One is pro-death for the sake of “population control” and “ending poverty” (think Pelosi)

The other camp just doesn’t give a Pelosi

Obama-care plain and simple. Obama specifically supports this version of murder. See Obama and the Born Alive Infant Protection Act.

In case you're too busy to google it, this happened routinely in Illinois, and Obama single-handedly killed the bill that was drafted to prevent it. He is on record as vigorously defending this type of action.

The good news? He lied about it in the general election and was genuinely uncomfortable and upset when he was asked about it. This shows that abortionists and their enablers can't endure their actions seeing the light of day. We have to hit them hard with this case. This sort of murder occurs everyday in America in abortion clinics. This murder is rare because the mother brought a suit to court. Everyone sane person who hears about this will be enraged, and it exposes abortion for what it is.
