Hialeah, FL - Dec 03, 2006 An autopsy report released last week obtained by Operation Rescue now indicates that a baby that was reportedly born alive then intentionally killed at a Hialeah abortion mill in July was indeed born alive.
However, it is unclear how this determination will affect any criminal prosecutions. The Hialeah Police are asking for murder charges to be filed against those responsible for the baby’s death.
On July 20, an 18-year old woman reported to the A Gyn Diagnostics abortion mill to complete an abortion in her 22nd week of pregnancy. The doctor was not on hand and she was placed in a recovery room to await his arrival. After several hours, the woman gave birth to a live baby girl who, according to the mother and another witness, “was moving and gasping for air.” The baby was put into a plastic bag by clinic owner Belkis Gonzalez, then tossed up on the roof of the abortion mill.
An anonymous caller tipped the police, and the baby’s body was discovered a week later and sent to the Miami-Dade County Medical Examiner for autopsy.
The report indicates that the baby, a 22-week baby girl with black hair and brown eyes, was apparently healthy at the time of her birth. Her cause of death is listed as “extreme prematurity,” and the manner of her death was “natural.”
The natural death determination was made because the coroner did not believe the baby, now named Shanice Denise Osbourne, had any chance of survival.
“It doesn’t matter if Shanice had a 100 percent or a zero percent chance of survival. Once she was born, she was deserving of the same protections under the law as the rest of us,” said Operation Rescue President Troy Newman. “At the minimum, she should have been given comfort care. Shoving her into a plastic bag and tossing her onto a roof to die is just unconscionable.”
It has also been learned that Gonzalez has placed her house up for sale.
“If Gonzalez and her cohorts are to be charged, they better do it quickly,” said Newman. “We have seen abortionists flee in the face of prosecution over less than this. Gonzalez and her associates should be considered flight risks.”
I can think of a few reasons. The most charitable rationale I can think of for failing to prosecute these cases is the unlikelihood of conviction.
The less charitable explanations are fear of re-election (for elected prosecutors) and just plain cowardice in the face of the hostile MSM and pro-abortion crowd.
There was a civil war over the institution of slavery. Mass murder is a greater evil.
How sad for this little baby.
You fight against it in every prudent way. Violent means are imprudent because, in the long run, violence will prolong the slaughter. It's bad PR.
But, they wait until the person is dead.
So when do you see this starting, now, or when/if the decision goes back to the states? Because you know some will keep it legal.
Why don't you think about this for a while and get back to me.

"Heck, I'd do either of the things above if he was about to kill a KITTEN, but we are talking about a human baby!"
Spare cats, spare kids, what's the difference?
Wait, animals have rights. My bad on that, I forgot that little detail.
Spare kids, then. Disposable, clearly.
The fact that they used a plastic bag and threw the child on the roof is no worse than what was originally planned. At least the child felt free air before it died.
Prosecute those involved. The more ruthless the prosecution, the better.
Previous articles have referred to her as a nurse.
This link has info that there were unlicensed personnel performing abortions.

These people need to go to jail for a long time.
This alone would probably not provoke a civil war. However, given all of the many vast differences socially, morally, etc. (i.e., Red/Blue States)...I think the frustration level is heading rapidly toward a peak. I know I am frustrated.
I am frustrated with empty-headed voters and the MSM and all of the liberals and ACLU and the omnipotent Supreme Court and on and on it goes. I think conservatives are becoming increasingly more angry with the inability to get the message out and to have it articulated accurately.
I can feel the frustration and the anger as I read the various threads and posts. If I am feeling as frustrated and as angry as I am with this wretched evil where a baby can be thrown up on a roof to die and bake in the sun like a raisin; where John Bolton would rather resign than tolerate the abuse he and his family would have been bound to suffer; where the ACLU has an inordinate amount of influence in our civil, private, and public forums; where fools are discussing only talking with Iran and Ahmadinejad, etc. ad nauesum, then I assume others are equally frustrated. I think we are headed fast toward critical mass. People can only only stand so much injustice and wrong.
Please do not assume that I want a civil war. It just seems inevitable to me. I believe we must continue to pray as never before and to work harder than ever. I also can not help but think of the Declaration of Independence, where a group of Americans, who did not want to, but eventually had to throw off the government because of the innumerable abuses suffered at the hands of King George; all delineated in the Declarartion.

The readers need to be upset. We all need to be upset. If more people were upset, maybe we'd actually do something about the genocide in this country.
I can understand the frustration, particularly following the most recent election, but I don't see any possibility of it culminating in the kind of civil war you envision.
to post 53.
do you believe everything you are told?
I don't.
my first thought when I read 'anonomous tip' was...

I think frustration is openly voiced here, for example, where people are safe behind their anonymous keyboards. I don't see a militia marching on clinics OR statehouses.
I don't propose to know how such a civil war would start and/or continue, but I do think it's a real possibility. It's sad that we live in a country that has gone so far downhill. Another significant factor is the obvious lack of good, conservative leadership. We simply don't have anyone we can believe in or trust. I certainly can't see John McCain or even Rudy Giuliani speaking for the majority of us. There's a big void at the top. Among other thing, we need a standard bearer!

This would be an excellent plan!
