If you took sides with the British National Health Service in its systematic execution of the baby Alfie Evans, then you sided with and gave comfort to the most publicly documented murder in the modern era.
Incompetent physicians backed by arrogant death panels propped up by a completely leftist court system produced the anguish, tears, and mourning that came to it’s climax at 2:30am on Saturday.
How pathetic that a free world—celebrating the birth of Prince Louis Arthur Charles—stood by and did precious little about the court-enforced starvation and suffocation death of Alfie Evans.
The strength on display by his parents in restraining themselves from literally striking blows against every hospital official and attending physician that made decisions in Alfie’s restraining order & in being chained to his death bed is in itself miraculous.
As I have examined my own emotions on what I would feel in their shoes, I have discovered myself far to weak a human sinner to not have done all I could to free him and get him to the waiting Italian helicopter sent to save him.
But angry words and justified face slaps only accomplish so much.
The real point is how do we prevent the next family from having to experience this slow excruciating torture.
On that I believe some critical observations may help us.
If anything led to Alfie’s unjust execution, if anything could be the most responsible for his outcome and if anything prevented getting the potentially life-saving care by medical professionals it was leftist politics. The insane policies in the United Kingdom that give the hospital and government more power than the parents in the care of a child is in itself the very embodiment of the oft-scoffed “death panels” argued against in the American national debate over whether to nationalize our health care system. In Alfie’s case a board overseeing his care, overrode the wishes of the parents, prevailed in a lower court and got a leftist appeals court to more or less ignore the case. If the protection of innocent life is the foundation of the free world, then everyone in it must understand that killing the vulnerable is a short step to killing anyone who becomes to difficult to deal with, care for, or just don’t like much anymore. And just to drive the point home, of all the voices that spoke out in favor of protecting Alfie, getting him continued care, and pushing the murderous British government into doing the right thing—were any of them prominent leftist, center left, or progressive voices? David Hogg screams about needing to take guns away from law abiding citizens, but sits silent as a government systematically strangled and starved a child far more vulnerable than those from Stoneman Douglas High School.
2. Produce Legislation That Protects Parents: It doesn’t take a rocket scientist to understand that if a nation doesn’t value the God-given structure and position of a family in the economy of their citizens, then their lives just don’t mean much. That Alfie’s parents were powerless to act on behalf of their son is simply unconscionable. If the new born prince born to William and Kate experienced all of the same issues, does anyone on earth believe that a court would have the power to stop them from seeking out every available medical option?
3. Get Faith Leaders Involved Earlier: That the rather leftist leaning Pope even came to Alfie’s defense is telling. That he convinced Italy to grant Alfie citizenship and sent a private charter helicopter is notable. But imagine if the Pope, Franklin Graham, the Patriarch of the worldwide Orthodox Church, and tens of thousands of pastors and priests had rallied to Alfie’s defense. Imagine if London had been forced to deal with a modern day civil right’s march on their turf. Imagine if weeks ago those leaders sought audiences with Prime Minister May and even the Queen. Imagine if the defense of innocent life gave rise to such decibels as to be unable to be deafened or stopped. Imagine if Christians of every variety, from every corner of the globe, organized local prayer chains, letter writing campaigns, and even traveled to the scene to encourage and help the family, or lobby parliament.
4. Speak Loudly, The Darker It Gets: One of the lessons we learned from the Waffle House shooting, the #MeToo & #TimesUp movements, the Cosby verdict, and from criminal and terrorism recovery counselors is that when attacked it is vital to take action and to speak up. When attacked harshly, because the attacker attempts to intimidate, speak louder. And as Rush Limbaugh has said on multiple occasions, “When they come to take away your every last freedom including speech, yell as though there is no tomorrow.” The truth is — there may not be. But those who seek to permeate evil on others can often be stopped when they meet resistance, and persistence in not being dissuaded. Eventually bullies are always overcome by the one who no longer allows themselves to be his victim.
5. Advocate Competence: One of the most stomach churning elements of the Alfie saga is the lack of knowledge about Alfie’s condition the “vaunted” socialized British NHS was supposedly able to render in his diagnosis. As of his time of death, they had not been able to identify his actual condition. Doctors in multiple countries desired a chance to examine him, to lend their considerable medical knowledge and credentialed heft to the process of helping just discover what Alfie’s condition was. Once identified, treatment options may have or may have not remained limited. Alfie might have even expired in the process of trying to discover. God is ultimately in charge of the number of days any of us gets. But for the mental and emotional health of his parents, and all of humanity it is a far healthier thing for us to have exhausted every option possible to save him—much less properly identify his condition.
6. Shame Those Who Fight Against Life: Those who don’t care about Alfie’s outcome—particularly those educated on the details of the narrative, are cancers to the human race. And I don’t mean that figuratively or symbolically. The shallow ninnies who celebrated and gossiped about the new born prince’s name prior to it’s release, the facebook posts that were both amazed or disturbed by Kate Middleton’s ability to leave the hospital seven hours after admission, the Hollywood executive who channel surfed his cable channel because Aflie’s story was too depressing, the wine and cheese parties that very academically discussed the “pros” and “cons,” the overwhelming number of people who never even bothered—these all deserve scorn. For they all prospered off the culture, economy, and planet while little Alfie could barely pass breath to and from his lungs after a government forced the removal of oxygen tubes that were mere inches away and guarded by police officers. Our abhorrence and even worse apathy towards the value of innocent human life is the worst strike against the character of this era of history. It rears itself in less notable ways all the time. But in Alfie’s case we are exposed for the self-obsessed, no-time-to-be-bothered, evil that we have been feeding on for a few generations.
My prayers tonight are said for Alfie’s family.
My efforts will be to prevent any family from knowing what they’ve known.
Will you join me, before it’s too late?
If you took sides with the British National Health Service in its systematic execution of the baby Alfie Evans, then you sided with and gave comfort to the most publicly documented murder in the modern era.
Isn't it true that the British NHS is the only reason Alfie Evans didn't die a long time ago?
NO!
Standard, modern medicine is NOT the product of the British NHS!!!
The NHS socialist policies are KILLING standard, modern medicine!
Well, it’s nice to know that under the present NHS, millions of pounds would have been saved by not providing iron lungs to polio patients.
I say this because I suspect little Alfie had a viral infection that affected his brain, possibly an enterovirus related to polio. We’ll never know, since the same NHS that wouldn’t look for a diagnosis will almost certainly not tolerate any post-mortem attempts to figure out the problem.
And, in case anyone misinterprets my first sentence, I was being sarcastic. And cynical.
(Also, I wouldn’t compare this to Charlie Gard. He had such a fundamental flaw in every one of his cells that he was doomed from the get-go. Even the videos of him as a newborn showed his impairment. I do empathize with the parents, as I emphasize with parents of any terminally ill child.)
God save the Queen? I am so done with the royals.
Europe is ruled by Satanists.
I am not being metaphorical. I am not being poetic. This is not allegory.
Europe is run by Satanists. They use ceremony and symbolism. To fight them, We must pray to our one true God. This may not seem like a fight to us. We don’t work in terms of ceremony and pomp. We work in real motions such as fighting, arguing, and utterly eliminating other people.
But Europe is ruled by Satanists. How do I say such a thing ? Observe:

This is the opening of the Gotthard tunnel in Switzerland. This is a satanic ritual. They do this stuff, for real.
We are told how to fight this type of evil in the Bible. For some reason we dismiss such ceremony as foolish and inefffective. Well let me tell you - the enemy, Satan himself isn’t held back by such nonsense. Many people don’t pray over their meals when in strange company. Satanists, such as our own political elite, show off their worship to the media. They hang devil-worshipping artwork on their walls and then invite people to interview them. They comment on it, behold it as sacred and have even stopped hiding.
We fight evil by not hiding.
One of the most powerful moments in US history, right there.
Remember the guy up on the bridge with his AR? Powerful, powerful stuff.
This is what happens when 100 people go against a million. Don’t be afraid. They want you to be afraid of the numbers. They want you to be afraid of their edict and they want you to be afraid of your fellow man.
Now look what they did:
Couple aged 63 and 65 become Britain’s oldest parents using surrogate mother - only to have one-year-old child taken away by social services
The 63 and 65-year-old spent more than £100,000 on a surrogate mother. They were left ‘devastated’ after the baby was taken away by social services. Their age is thought to be a factor in fears over the one-year-old’s well-being.
In the Comments section, there was NOT ONE person that got to the heart of the issue. While most did not like what Social Services did, they did NOT question their authority to do it. They are quite happy with their “free” health care.
The heart of the issue is: To whom do the children belong?
Answer:
With Socialized Medicine: The STATE owns your children.
With Private Medicine: The PARENTS own their children.
This is why you never—ever—give up your firearms.
Isn’t it true that the British NHS is the only reason Alfie Evans didn’t die a long time ago?
xxxxxxxx
I cannot believe you wrote that cold hearted sentence.
Alfie may have lived in spite of the ghouls that attended him.
The issue is that the NHS stopped doing their duty. And keeping alive is the bare minimum of their duty. An accurate diagnosis, the adjustment of care in such a way as to not weaken with carelessness.
I beg you to think deeply about such medical tyranny.
There are two things that I am not going to give a damn about, one of them is Louie and the other is this farce of a wedding. Miss Markle is obviously marrying down and why she would do that is beyond me.
The "medical tyranny" you describe began when the NHS was established. I can pretty much guarantee you that the same Brits who are out there protesting what the NHS did in the Evans case would never even dream of dismantling the NHS entirely and taking on the responsibility to pay for their own medical care.
This is a self-imposed tyranny if I ever saw one.
NO! National Bureaucracies do not endow life. And in the case of NHS they don't appear to be overly concerned with preserving it either.
It boils down to the fundamental principles of dialectical materialism. Alfie will never produce enough to reimburse the state for the cost of his care. Since life has no sanctity, To the socialist mind Alfie's life has purely material value. Therefore, Alfie must die. It's for the good of society and best for all concerned don't you know.
For now, the more "sophisticated" nations of the world only kill unborn children, of in determinant value, whose mothers don't want to give birth and those who will always lack the capacity to be productive for the state. Many more "advanced" countries are moving on to the elimination of the elderly and terminally ill. (News flash, we were all born terminally ill.) Eventually they'll work their way around to rationalizing the elimination of undesirables on the basis of racial identity and ideological or religious views.
Always remember, Nazi Germany is the end state of Socialism.
And the beginning state of socialism is a National Health Service.
That doesn't stop the people of Great Britain from routinely turning themselves over to their bureaucratic masters for their medical care, does it?
Poor Alfie and poor Terri Schiavo.
Sadly it does not.
What would the British National Death Service do to Louis Arthur Charles if he was in the same condition as Alfie Evans?
We know the answer to that.
Some people are more equal than other people.
Poor little Alfie was “lmpaired”, and since the Brits have socialized medicine, it would have cost the brit system millions to sustain him if they had let him live. That’s why the bast*rds killed him. Disgusting.
