Abortion Activist Defends Infanticide: “Medical Necessity” May Require Killing Baby After Birth
Life News ^ | 9/29/14 | Steven Ertelt

When pro-life advocates take the pro-life message to college and university campuses, they never know what kind of response they’ll get. They see it all — counter protests, people changing their minds on abortion, and even violence.

Then, sometimes, they get some of the most outrageous responses from abortion activists who go out of their way to justify their view that abortion should be available on demand, for any reason and any time during pregnancy.

But the pro-life advocates with Created Equal saw that pro-abortion argument taken to the next level when they visited Ohio State University. There, one abortion activist said she saw no problem with infanticide, saying there may be medical cases that require killing a newborn baby after birth.

“You’re asking me whether I blanketly believe it’s wrong to kill a newborn baby after that baby’s been taken from it’s mother’s womb,” a protester to Created Equal’s outreach at Ohio State University asks pro-lifers in a newly-released video clip. She continues, “And I’m saying to you I have no idea what medical necessities or medical issues would arise that would necessitate that.”

Mark Harrington, director of the pro-life group, told LifeNews in response: “Why would this defender of abortion refuse to condemn killing babies after birth? Because she knows there is no morally relevant difference between a child immediately before and after birth. Thus, if it were acceptable to kill her inside the womb, it would also be permissible afterward.”

“Tragically, this protester is not alone. We’re encountering this at a growing rate,” Harrington added. “Once again we see that the worldview accepting the barbarity of abortion has ramifications for born humans, too. The old Russian proverb says, “If there is no God, everything is permitted.” If fewer and fewer Americans ground their morality in God, in what will they root it? Their personal arbitrary sense of right and wrong. We have our work cut out for us.”

My Neighbor plays theire music inthe middle of the night too loud inthe apartment next door causing me to lose sleep and become a borderline insomniac.... Can i hire a hitman to murder them because of my medical medical needs of getting a good night’s sleep?

Seriously they are talking about making doctors into hitment with white coats and degrees....

Can an “Assasins Guild” be far behind, of course ran by the SEIU......

She admits to being utterly clueless on the subject but she is committed to making a stand on it.

All this just because raging fang-tooth feminazis want their precious abortion and hate anything that threatens it.

That's not a woman speaking. That's not even a human being speaking. That is a female alien enemy of the human race speaking. And this comment isn't hyperbole, metaphor, analogy or exaggeration.

It is her choice. She has the choice to be responsible and use birth control when having sex or not to have sex at all. Once there is a baby inside, that is a life and under our system, it may not have that choice to keep it. In reality making a decision to take that life should not have to be made except under very rare and extreme circumstances when all other options are exhausted.

I know Christmas is approaching and I keep thinking back to the cartoon where Frosty get married in the second sequel where the kids convinced Jack Frost to keep winter going and the town preacher said that if they did that, you are breaking the promise of life that God has given the buds on the flowers and the leaves on the trees and he then asked, "how would you feel if that promise was broken to you?" I thought about it and I know me, I'd feel sad, screwed and perhaps anger and rage as well.

For example, if the newborn picked up a scalpel and lunged for it's mother's throat before jumping off the table and running upside down on the ceiling, out the window then up the exterior wall to the roof.

It would be a medical necessity to kill that baby. But most other babies post no further medical risk to the mother once born.


Been watching too many "Chucky" movies? B-) Need a humor break but I like your point.

Or FemiNazi. Take a look at that woman holding up the sign in that picture will ya? She reinforces my belief that the women that make the biggest stink about being pro-choice are the ones that won’t need any abortions...

Yeah, she's a real fox, ain't she? I'm a member of the local lonely hearts club here but if it was between marrying her (unless she has an attitude change) or my ham radio, the ham radio wins out.

Any argument that can be made in favor of killing a baby inside the womb can be made to killing one who has been born.
