Abortion Industry’s “Hail Satan” Lawsuit Against Texas Pro-Life Law Goes Down in Flames
aclj.org ^ | June 9, 2015 | Matthew Clark

hey chanted, “Hail Satan,” as they worshiped at the altar of abortion.

They tried to drown out the voice of the people to defeat a lifesaving law. They failed.

This was the bill the Left abhorred, abortionists loathed, and the Culture of Death feared.

Today, the abortion industry’s grand attempts to bury a critical pro-life law in Texas went down in flames.

The Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals ruled that a pro-life law in Texas that requires abortion clinics to abide by basic safety standards and mandates that abortionists in those clinics have critical lifesaving hospital admitting privileges should they botch an abortion will go into effect.

This case delivers a major blow to the abortion industry.

The court said simply:

In plain terms, H.B. 2 and its provisions may be applied throughout Texas, except that Supreme Court precedent requires us to partially uphold the district court’s injunction of the [safety] requirement as applied to the Whole Woman’s Health abortion facility in McAllen, Texas, and to uphold the district court’s injunction of the admitting privileges requirement as applied to Dr. Lynn when he is working at the McAllen facility.

In other words, the entire attack on the law – which actually bans abortions after 20 weeks in Texas (the major portion of the law that was never challenged) – miserably failed. Except for the safety requirements for one abortion clinic and the hospital admitting privileges for one abortionist at that abortion clinic, the entire law stands. (Unfortunately, the court feels hamstrung by Supreme Court precedent as applied to this clinic.)

Well, there seems to be a lot of video from the time confirming it.

Yes, it was horrifically demonic.

This deranged mindset/possession characterized much of the population in the Austin area.

What could be the rationale behind exempting one clinic from actual clinical standards and one doctor from admitting privileges? Stupid.

Either it’s constitutional, across the board, or it’s not.

The Left doesn’t even believe that the things spelled out in the Constitution are Constitutional. Take the Second Amendment for example. Soon to be the First Amendment when the Supreme Court ‘finds’ a right too sodomy marriage. Try to deny a homosexual couple a church wedding once they have the right to marry.

The Parable of the Weeds
…29”But he said, ‘No; for while you are gathering up the tares, you may uproot the wheat with them. 30’Allow both to grow together until the harvest; and in the time of the harvest I will say to the reapers, “First gather up the tares and bind them in bundles to burn them up; but gather the wheat into my barn.”’”

Yep. They did. Now you know “who” is calling the shots and “who” they serve.

Agreed, but why give them a target .. that clinic will close sooner or later or that abortionist will retire ... be patient and accept victory.
