Abortion activists in the streets of Buenos Aires, Argentina jumped for joy Friday at the prospect of being able to legally kill their unborn babies in elective, unnecessary abortions.
The sickening display of “deep joy and emotion” occurred after an early morning vote by the Argentine lower house to legalize abortions up to 14 weeks of pregnancy, Euro News reports.
Abortion activist, backed by some of the richest men in the world, hope that if they convince Argentina to abandon its protections for unborn babies, other South American countries will follow its example. Most countries on the content protect unborn babies’ right to life.
The AP reports the legislation, introduced by President Alberto Fernandez, passed at 7 a.m. Friday after 20 hours of debate. It now move to the Argentine Senate where pro-lifers hope lawmakers will reject it as they did a similar pro-abortion bill in 2018.

The bill would allow unborn babies to be aborted for any reason up to 14 weeks of pregnancy and later in cases of rape or dangers to the mother’s life or health. It would allow girls over 13 to get secret abortions without their parents’ knowledge or consent and could force medical providers to either abort unborn babies or refer women to someone else who will.
Pro-abortion groups celebrated the vote Friday as a “historic moment,” according to the Morning Star, a British socialist news outlet.
“I’m so excited. It is a historic demand, and it has to do with solving a public health problem,” pro-abortion campaigner Laura Salome said, according to the report.
But abortions are not health care, and they are not necessary for women to be healthy or prosperous. The purpose of an abortion is to kill an unborn baby. Abortions can pose serious, sometimes deadly, risks to mothers as well.
Outside the Argentine congress, thousands of pro-life and pro-abortion protesters gathered to hear the results of the vote. A video from Euro News showed abortion activists jumping up and down and waving green scarves, a symbol of the pro-abortion movement, after the vote was announced. Many of them sang and hugged each other, while some cried tears of “joy,” according to the video footage.
Inside the house, pro-abortion lawmakers also waved green flags, shouted and hugged one another. An AP report noted that many of the abortion activists did not seem “to care about the social distancing imposed to combat the coronavirus pandemic.”
Agustina Felice, of the National Campaign for the Right to Abortion, said the vote brought her “deep joy and emotion” after their 15-year fight to legalize abortions, according to the report.
Meanwhile, news reports described how pro-lifers cried and hung their heads in sorrow in the streets of Buenos Aires after they learned of the vote to legalize the killing of unborn babies.
The people of Argentina strongly oppose abortions, and many hope that the Argentine Senate will reject the pro-abortion bill.
The pro-life coalition Unidad Provida encouraged people to protest against the radical pro-abortion bill.
“With a combination of anger at the president’s contempt for life and enthusiasm for the trust given in the overwhelming strength of #LaMayoríaCeleste [the pro-life movement], pro-lifers will go to the streets to demand the rejection of the abortion law,” the pro-life coalition said.
Unidad Provida also urged lawmakers to drop the bill and enact policies that support “the care of the two lives that are at stake in a vulnerable pregnancy” instead.
In 2019, approximately 2 million Argentines participated in the country’s March for Life. Thousands more protested in March after Fernandez first announced his plans to legalize abortion on demand.
A similar proposal to legalize the killing of unborn babies in Argentina failed in 2018 because of strong public opposition.

The right to kill — so liberating /s
When most of those women wind up with major health problems after they have one I’m sure they will be thrilled
These people are inhuman . . . .as in demonic.
This is an example of what I said before. The WHOLE world.......
Yup. Pure evil.
It seems like there is a struggle between the culture of life and the culture of death everywhere.
There certainly is. Evil has no borders.
I recall the New York State House and Senate erupting in joy when they passed their abortion laws a few years back.
I used to think that life on earth was actually purgatory but lately I’m convinced we’re in hell
Amazing. It does seem as if the world is losing it’s grip
The US was the only thing that stood against the demonic evil that wants to take over the world.
Since the whole world seems to be embracing this evil, I can see where God would have the US removed from that role so as to usher in the end times.
The end times is not jsut about judging the US for its sins, but since the whole world is, the whole world is also under God’s judgment.I can see that God is not going to withhold that judgment any longer.
The darkness is descending, every day it is greater.
It’s never going to be 2019 again.
You are right.
They are eager to murder babies.
Hell is an action that, unfortunately, a lot of people choose to take.
We married guys with a means of support. Then we had kids. It was a good system. I’m countercultural for 40 years for thinking this was a sops system.
“vote by the Argentine lower house to legalize abortions up to 14 weeks of pregnancy, Euro News reports.”
14 weeks seems almost civilized compared to the elective third trimester ghouls we have here.
This is sick. We are not talking of a tribal private behavior, but an institutionalized killing with the medical industry being god and recruiting for moneys for this.
Now you know how the elites are transfering their own guilt and corruption unto the poor being “oppressed by Christians” taking away their abortion.
This is the biggest coup of the exploiter in dividing the exploited. Because the exploiter feels its culture and way of life as elite is threatened by missionaries encouraging the poor to not abort.
The Malay elite tribes reacted the same when the lower caste poor where being taught by Missionaries to choose life.
It’s the mentality of the Left. They are savages.
