New York Reveals Its Blood Lust for Baby Killing
Townhall.com ^ | January 25, 2019 | Michael Brown

Posted on 01/26/2019 12:26:32 PM PST by Kaslin

New York was already doing a fine job of slaughtering its unborn, especially its black babies. Why, then, did it need to pass a new, more extreme abortion law? And why did New York do this on the anniversary of Roe v. Wade? There’s one simple answer: blood lust.

Secular media outlets are reporting that New York just updated its “archaic” abortion law.

Yet somehow, even with that “archaic” law, New York was already the abortion capital of America, aborting babies at twice the national average.

Somehow, New York was still managing to kill one baby for every two babies born.

And, despite that “archaic” law, New York City was able to kill more black babies in the womb than bring them to birth.

But no, that was not enough. The law must be expanded.

Today, a perfectly viable baby of nine-months, ready to be born at any minute, can be slaughtered by the will of the mother.

That is blood lust.

That is the spirit of baby killing.

There is nothing humanitarian or compassionate about it.

It is cruel. It is unwarranted. It is murderous.

And it utterly Orwellian to refer to it as the “Reproductive Health Act.” Why not call it for what it is?

The moral bankruptcy of New York’s new law – the pride of “Christian” governor Andrew Cuomo – is fully exposed in the last phrase of this sentence: “an abortion may be performed by a licensed, certified, or authorized practitioner within 24 weeks from the commencement of pregnancy, or [if] there is an absence of fetal viability, or at any time when necessary to protect a patient’s life or health.”

Yes, the baby may be terminated “at any time when necessary to protect a patient’s life or health.”

And what, exactly, does that mean? What if the mother’s mental heath needed to be protected? What if she felt, the day before her due date, that she just couldn’t take the stress of having a child. Would that merit abortion?

But that is to beg the question, since the baby could easily be delivered and adopted. We’re talking about a totally viable baby! A baby that, under normal circumstances, would soon be crying and nursing outside the womb.

Today, however, that baby’s well-being is at risk until the moment of the birth.

This is madness. This is murderous. Shades of Kermit Gosnell on steroids!

Princeton professor Robert P. George expressed it so well. He wrote: “A huge irony: The NY law authorizing the killing of babies in the third trimester PROVES that the aim of the abortion lobby is NOT the protection of maternal health in circumstances of hazardous pregnancy, but is rather the right to destroy an unwanted child whose existence poses no risk to maternal health (in any sense of the term ‘health’ that amounts to anything other than a rationalization for killing unwanted babies). The only reason to kill rather than deliver a child in the third trimester of pregnancy and gestation is that the woman (or someone who is pressuring her to abort) wants the child to be dead rather than alive. It's the child's *existence*, not the pregnancy, which poses the alleged, ‘health’ risk. The pregnancy can be ended (‘terminated’) by delivering the baby alive, rather than killing him or her. So do you see the see the sophistry in the argument for abortion here? It's glaring.”

Yes, why not simply deliver the baby? If the mother’s health is allegedly at risk and the baby is viable outside the womb, why not deliver it?

Plenty of parents would love to adopt the child.

Plenty of parents would gladly open the doors of their home to this precious little one.

Why kill it?

And let’s not have some romanticized view of how a third-trimester baby is terminated. As noted by Steven Ertelt (with reference to a former abortionist), “the baby is injected with a poison directly into his skull or torso. He then suffers a hideously painful death, which he will certainly feel because of his developed nervous system. The mother carries the corpse around in her womb for a day. The next day, there is an ultrasound to check if the baby is dead. If he isn’t — if he has been writhing and suffering in agony for the past 24 hours, clinging onto life — then he will be injected again. The following day, the mother delivers her dead child. Sometimes she delivers him at the clinic, but if she can’t make it on time, the clinic is perfectly happy to recommend that she give birth into her toilet.”

How can this possibly be for the good of the mother? And under what moral code is this not barbarous and inhumane? Or should we mention the grisly details of “partial-birth abortion,” where the child is delivered feet first, then the skull is pierced with scissors and its brains sucked out – while still alive?

And if a baby somehow survived the murderous attempts of the abortionist, who does not even have to be a doctor? What if it was still born alive? Under previous New York law, efforts would be made to care for the child. But no longer! Under this new law, those provisions have been removed. The baby must die!

Yet New Yorkers were celebrating this moral madness. They were shouting for joy!

And in a final statement of depravity, the 400-foot spire of One World Trade Center was lit up in pink, as if to honor the women of New York.

It should have been lit up blood red.

there will be a series of cases brought to a RBGless SCOTUS that will have a drastic effect on Roe v Wade

Governor CuJo is allowing people other than doctors to preform abortions.

The pro-life movement really needs to rethink its whole strategy in fighting this crusade. Instead of mounting these useless political battles against laws like this, let's start thinking creatively and SUPPORTING them.

Just think of how devastating the PR messages could be:

"Support the NY abortion bill ... because this world doesn't need any more New Yorkers!"

"Support the Andrew Cuomo abortion bill ... because New Yorkers who kill their babies help Make America Great Again!"

Let the Nazis in the New York State government explain THAT approach.

New York Gov Cuomo gleefully signs bill makes full term abortion legal....being born is ok to kill.

Cuomo and his fellow Mengele fans laugh it up as he signed the death bill. The fat grinning granny is
Sarah Weddington who argued the infamous 1973 abortion case before the USSC.

"Hope you people got your orders in for those custom Lamborghinis. We’re talking real money with this bill."

Andy's political vision goes all the way from A-B....just another Loony Tune that found his inner moron.
Abortion worshippers and other mentally challenged weirdos, tripped over themselves to come out of their little liberal man caves.

Gov Andy hires only practiced genital-sniffers for state govt jobs.
In fact, Big Pharma's putting out a nasal spray for the genital-sniffing habit---to treat sexually transmitted diseases of the nasal passages.

Abortion Worshipper Cuomo has a Master Plan---b/c everybody knows in politics, to burnish
one's bona fides to get higher office, you must feed the snarling "choice" crowds more and more red meat.

WHAT'S NEXT FOR NY? Cuomo will demand medical reports and checkoffs for newborns w/ diseases; toddlers who have bow legs, 3-4 year olds who won't put away their toys, the ones who won't toilet-train. Next Cuomo will troll kindergartens for kids who don't color within the lines---all of them marked for post-birth abortions.

IN THE WAKE OF HARVEY WEINSTEIN, EVEN KNOWING ABOUT SEX HARASSMENT CAN GET YOU IN TROUBLE.
Retaliation against a victim is a biggie---as Cong Sheila Jackson Lee found out.

WHAT DOES CUOMO KNOW ABOUT THIS? NY State Legislature's Thriving Sex Scandals.

Then-Speaker Sheldon Silver orchestrated payoffs with tax dollars to four women who accused his pals and cronies of sexual ­harassment or egregious intimate abuse. But this series of scandals (Silver has been accused of enabling, not committing, sexual offenses) proves that Albany remains a sexual sewer.

DID CUOMO DO ANYTHING ABOUT RETALIATION? Albany’s naked sex shenanigans have been known for more than two decades. The writer was an ambitious college intern in the 1980s, was hit on by er married, elected boss, pushed him away — then was fired the next day.

Despite laws meant to curb sexual villainy, despite sensitivity training and warnings to testosterone cases that they’d best keep their hands off junior government staffers, nothing much has changed. Young ladies march daily into the fashion-backward state Capitol building in fuzzy UGG boots, long underwear and circa-1994 Jennifer Aniston-style hairdos, then slip into slinky skirts and painfully high heels.

After demonstrating the survival skills of a cockroach, Silver, 70, was arrested on federal charges of fraud, conspiracy and extortion, accused of lining his pockets with $4 million in kickbacks and bribes. He says he’s innocent and expects to be exonerated, and will not give up his Assembly seat. On Wednesday, the Weitz & Luxenberg law firm that employed Silver asked him to take a leave of absence until the charges against him are resolved.

BACKSTORY OF ALBANY'S THRIVING SEXUAL HARASSMENT CULTURE: Charmian Neary first brought the term “sexual harassment’’ into the Albany lexicon. In 1992, she was the star witness in then-Gov. Mario Cuomo’s (Andy's father) landmark hearing of the Governor’s Task Force on Sexual Harassment, testifying that, two years earlier, as a dewy-eyed 24-year-old, she was let go from her job as an aide to then-Manhattan Assemblyman Mark Alan Siegel after rebuffing his sexual advances.

Then, in 1995, Silver arranged to pay Neary $85,000 in taxpayer money to settle her civil lawsuit against the Assembly and Siegel. Siegel, 70, now a lawyer in Florida, told me that “Shelly settled it because the cost of it was less than the cost of defending it.’’ He denied any wrongdoing.

In 2001, Elizabeth Crothers, then 25, accused Silver’s legal counsel, J. Michael Boxley, of date rape. Pressured by Silver not to go to the police, she has told me, an internal Assembly investigation led to her allegations being dismissed. Two years later, Boxley was hauled off in handcuffs, accused of raping a 22-year-old Assembly staffer. He pleaded guilty to a wrist-slap misdemeanor sexual-misconduct count, registered as a sex offender, was sentenced to serve six years’ probation — but not a minute behind bars. He quit his job.

But the real insult — to taxpayers — came when the victim, who has never made her name public, was paid $507,500, almost all of it in public money, to settle a civil lawsuit against Boxley and Silver. Crothers got nothing. “Mr. Boxley has no comment on that. That’s something that happened a long time ago,’’ said Steven Greenberg, spokesman for Brown & Weinraub, the Albany firm for which Boxley now works as a lobbyist.

Silver again dipped into state coffers to pay $103,080 to two women who accused former Assemblyman Vito Lopez of groping them. Facing expulsion, Lopez stepped down from his Brooklyn Assembly seat. Silver was reamed out in a 2013 report by the special prosecutor, Staten Island DA Dan Donovan, who wrote that the speaker virtually created Albany’s sexual cesspool, covering his own butt while covering up for sleazebags. He was not punished. Lopez could not be reached and Silver did not respond to a request for comment.

WHAT DOES ANDY KNOW ABOUT THIS?
For decades, Speaker Silver orchestrated payoffs to women victims.....in 2013 a special prosecutor, wrote that Silver virtually created Albany’s sexual cesspool, covering-up for himself and for Albany sleazebags.

After demonstrating the survival skills of a cockroach, Silver was finally arrested on federal charges of fraud, conspiracy and extortion, of lining his pockets with $4M in kickbacks and bribes.

Need to go back to verse 5 at least to keep it in context (no offense) but there may be lurkers.

Psalm 137:5-9 King James Version (KJV)

5 If I forget thee, O Jerusalem, let my right hand forget her cunning.

6 If I do not remember thee, let my tongue cleave to the roof of my mouth; if I prefer not Jerusalem above my chief joy.

7 Remember, O Lord, the children of Edom in the day of Jerusalem; who said, Rase it, rase it, even to the foundation thereof.

8 O daughter of Babylon, who art to be destroyed; happy shall he be, that rewardeth thee as thou hast served us.

9 Happy shall he be, that taketh and dasheth thy little ones against the stones.


Now, I’m not saying the U.S.A. is Babylon, so no one take that away. However, I WILL say some part of the U.S.A. acts kinda like it. Hollywood on one coast and NE liberals on the other coast.

The rainbow White House was an open declaration of war on God. Liberals will laugh but it was no joke at all.

If you can legally murder a child post-partum, then NO ONE should ever be charged for the crime of murder.
It just becomes a delayed post-partum abortion!

Bad as this is, no woman is forced to slaughter her child inside or partially outside the womb. That is her own premeditated murder.


For now.

Just wait til the state determines who is worthy of a life.

Got an impairment? The State will see to it that you don’t see the light of day.

You don’t think that is not what’s next?
