NBC’s 'Law & Order' Paint Pro-Lifers as Violent Murderers
Newsbusters ^ | 30 Sep 2022 | Tierin-Rose Mandelburg

Even though the pro-life movement sets its goal to save lives, the left will stop at nothing to paint pro-lifers as villains.

In Thursday night's Law & Order episode titled “Battle Lines,” numerous anti-life talking points were emphasized. The episode used a murder case of the daughter of a fictional Texas governor to push the abortion narrative, as well as the murder of an abortion activist to paint pro-lifers as the threats in the abortion debate.

One scene displayed a conversation between the characters Executive Assistant District Attorney Nolan Price (Hugh Dancy) and District Attorney Jack McCoy (Sam Waterston).

The pair discussed the incident with Becca Carter, daughter of TX Gov. Carter who was murdered by her brother, Blake Carter. The detectives also discuss the mother, Barbara Carter’s role in the situation.

Based on the police shows of the past 30 years, you'd think that America had tens of millions of neo-Nazis, Klansmen, survivalists, gun nuts, Christian extremists, Islamophobes, homophobes, and other assorted murderous white supremacists. And that at any moment they might overthrow the government, toss half the country into death camps, and turn American in The Handmaid's Tale.

Had to go all the way back to the Atlanta 1996 Olympics and later perpetrator resolution to show that people who try to stop abortion are murderers... They’ve got Eric Rudolph on the brain, IMO.

Interesting. There is a very good reason why I do not watch anything that is on the broadcast networks these days. Nothing but garbage.

I thought I would give a new show called “Alaska Daily” a try. It stars Hilary Swank. She plays a NYC journalist who ends up in Anchorage to report on missing indigenous women. After meeting one of the female Alaskan reporters, Swank’s character mentions she liked the great reporting on the white nationalists. I stopped watching after that.

Well, the rehashed torn, trite and tortured renditions of all these fake-ass crime stopper show where the ‘expert profiler task force members’ sit around and one-by-one in a staccato rendition reel off all the soon-to-be real attributes of the UNSUB....how stupid and unlikely is that? Especially, given what we know about the likes of the FBI, et al.

Take a good long look at any of these shows. They all completely rely on this nonsense.

They actually had Angie Harmon arguing about abortion and where it was in the Constituion.

Yes the Angie Harmon character was a conservative. 'I say let's hang 'em all'.

That miserable excuse for a mother....

Any woman who uses abortion as birth control is an idiot.

A few of her lines....

When Michael Moriarty left the show became complete trash. It was only 60% trash prior.

Agreed. And then they killed off Claire Kincaid (Jill Hennessy). Loved her....

Will stop at nothing to paint pro-lifers as villains.

True leftists blame others of what you are.

I heard an advert for a new NY cop show, East New York, yesterday. Will it feature the benefits of no-cash bail and releasing repeated violent criminals back onto the streets I wonder?

Two strikes there.

I watch reruns of Naked City, better series.

Any and all of the modern cop and hospital shows have the same bias.

The vast majority of criminals portrayed are white, evil, Angle-Saxon rich guys or blue-collar chauvinist religious men wearing wife beaters or work shirts.

The victims are usually women of color, often with a bunch of little kids just trying to survive in the country they invaded. At best, the victim is a white woman married to a rich misogynist Republican.

Same with hospital shows. The victim is the young trans who just wants a removadickfromme or high school girl wanting to kill her baby and their white Bible-thumping parents won’t allow it.

It’s all Leftist wet dream stroking.

I thought it was a hoot that Olivia had a lot of lesbian fan girls because they thought she was lesbian.

Interesting. The last L and O episode I watched depicted Ken Starr as a blood hound whose only interest was illicit sex. That was long ago.

Jumping the shark is passé ... now since The Kingdom of Crystal Skulls it’s “nuking the fridge”.
