~~PING!
It is beyond sad.
Very sad. But even more sad that he did not learn anything from the first death.
Maybe he will have an open heart now.
Let us pray! Can you imagine what a great story of redemption it would be if he shut them all down without compensation or a sell-off and joined the ranks of those fighting to protect life???

May all these little ones Rest In The Peace of God's Love.
Amen. I pray that the Feldkamp family sees this as their road to Damascus.

Karma works.
Not to be disrespectful or condesending to a legitimate need to pray for people to see the err of their ways...
But this will only happen when pigs fly...
Apparently God has a plan...And there is apparently not enough on these peoples plate to challenge them to see, much less act upon the immoral decisions they make...
And unless the plan is to render their services moot to the communities they are set up in...Much more lives will be lost...
And with a lot more time people have in this country to spend more “quality time” with their significant others to “Choose” to create more lives, we are probably going to see a spike in planned parenthood activity to those who believe foremost that the life created was a mistake...
Just remember (and this is what I tell people when I was 13 years old, and I figured it out) that it is NOT the babies fault...If I can figure it out without ANY coaching or instructions in what is right or wrong on the issue of abortion, then maybe there is hope...
Maybe if more people see photos like the ones at this link, hearts and minds can be changed— to take a stand against the horrors of abortion:

Those photos are horrific!
:(
My daughter, and only child, is 12 weeks pregnant. She had her first scan. Both she and her hubby were filled with wonderment and awe at what they saw! Truly God’s miracle.
A close friend of mine who had an abortion decades ago, when she was very young, has lived to regret it every single day of her life. As we track the progress of my daughters baby on a 3D website, this woman is filled with a mixture of agonizing guilt and joy of the pregnancy... really bittersweet for her.
Congratulations to your daughter and family!
I feel sorry for your friend. Several pro-life counselors at a local group have similar stories to tell. They are able to give first-hand accounts to those considering abortions of the regret that comes later on. They are some of the best counselors in the group. Maybe your friend will consider becoming one.
“Karma works.”

You are disgusting. Using Bud Feldkamp as an excuse to be void of human decency is disgusting.
This is part of the family many of you have been trashing today...this is from the parents of Chase...
“After four days of pure shock and pain, my wife and I feel the need to respond to so many thoughts and prayers that have been sent via this forum. It seems fitting that while no one seems to have the words that can make us feel better, we too have no words to express our thanks for your compassion. We have been checking this site religiously ever since we found people were posting things for Chase. We have been overwhelmed by the sense of comraderie that the Racing Community has shown our family and friends.
Chase was a beautiful little guy that we always hoped would grow up to join the off-road ranks and become a part of our family tradition. I always dreamed of him and I bouncing along some back road in Baja, telling racing stories, and having conversations that could never be replaced. Those were some of the greatest memories I have of me and my father.
Chase was well on his way to being my racing partner. His last race was San Felipe, and I remember thinking that he is just now starting to enjoy/comprehend the racing atmosphere. I had him on my shoulders as you guys came through Old Peurtocitos Road, and he LOVED IT! I think there was a reason that I didn’t happen to be in the race car that day, because it allowed me to share that experience with him.
While nothing can ever bring him back, my wife and I have chosen to honor him with the “Chase House” that we will be starting in Valle De Trinidad at the location of the Malcolm Smith Orphanage (as seen on Dust to Glory). Our hope is to have a place for the greater off-road community to give something back to those kids who were not as privileged as our Chase. Even if people cannot send money or be part of the foundation, hopefully they will think of cleaning out their garage prior to a pre-run and bless those kids with whatever “junk” we all seem to accumulate. I know that I have more race T-shirts than I know what to do with.
Please visit malcolmsmithmotorsportsfoundation.org
In closing, thank you for all the support and condolences. We know that Chase will be looking down on us as we move forward with our lives and will be there whenever his mother or I “break down.”
Feldkamp Race to Feldkamp Chase.......You copy?”
Bud Feldkamp’s actions, whether you agree with them or not, do not warrant the type of comments I have seen on here today. Keep in mind that you’re talking about real people here. REAL PEOPLE. This isn’t just a news story. Real people have been affected. But many of you have used this as an opportunity to get up on your soapboxes and I find it absolutely repulsive.
What was it Obama’s team said about never letting a good crisis go to waste? Congratulations, you’ve sunk to their level. At the expense of a grieving family and community. I hope you’re proud of yourselves. And I pray to God that you never have to endure the kind of commentary and lack of decency that many of you have exhibited.
And what kind of karma have you earned for your callous, cold-blooded and cruel post?
(Hint: I hope you're beyond the need for compassion.)
A devastating loss, has brought on an Amazing change.
It can happen.
When I pray for the conversions of the bama and Michelle or abortion mill owners and staffers I never thought my prayers would be answered by a fiery fall into a tombstone that marked the grave of an aborted baby.
I do not get to tell Jesus how to convert people.
I did not ask for an exchange of one dead body for another.
I know I have pray to be more humble.
