THE ABORTED STATES OF AMERICA
The map above has 17 states blacked out. The population of these states is equal to the 42,000,000+ reported "legal" surgical abortions since 1973. Perhaps this visual perspective helps one to grasp the number of people that are gone, deadrobbed of their God given, constitutional rights to life and liberty.
Each time a person is aborted and robbed of their rights; our rights and very lives become less secure. How many more innocent people will have to suffer horrible painful deaths before the nation accepts the truth that with abortion, we are destroying our country and our future.
Please go to our Pro-Life Education Page , to learn how you can help end this tragedy.
Would you enlarge on that?
Hint: You are going to have to define the moment at which a living human being acquires personhood. Please give your reasons and supporting evidence for your definition.
And, while you are at it, please define the exact moment when personhood ends. With reasons and evidence.
Please.
Shame on America.
I thought that 9/11 was going to be that day.
There was a brief time of emotional, maybe even spiritual catharsis. But, when nothing else got blown up.....well, back to business as usual.
"What's on TV tonight? How 'bout them Yankees? I really need that 57" TV."
etc., and so on.
Mighty empires all, always fall. Then historians rummage around trying to figure out why.
Unless, America's empire is the exception to the rule.
Thoughts from anyone?
"One death is a tragedy. A million deaths is a statistic." Stalin
I didn't know you were an admirer of Joseph Stalin.
Of course, he yawned over abortion, too.
We NEED a human-life amendment to the Constitution NOW and we NEED legislation to make clear that the Fifth and Fourteenth Amendments protections apply to all unborn children!! |
Proposing an amendment to the Constitution of the United States with respect to the right to life. (Introduced in House)
HJ 20 IH
107th CONGRESS
1st Session
H. J. RES. 20
Proposing an amendment to the Constitution of the United States with respect to the right to life.
IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
Mr. OBERSTAR (for himself, Mr. AKIN, Mr. ARMEY, Mr. BAKER, Mr. BARCIA, Mr. BARTLETT of Maryland, Mr. DEMINT, Mr. GREEN of Wisconsin, Ms. HART, Mr. HAYES, Mr. HULSHOF, Mr. LIPINSKI, Mr. LUCAS of Kentucky, Mr. PICKERING, Mr. SHIMKUS, Mr. SHOWS, Mr. TANCREDO, and Mr. TERRY) introduced the following joint resolution; which was referred to the Committee on the Judiciary
JOINT RESOLUTION
Proposing an amendment to the Constitution of the United States with respect to the right to life.
Resolved by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of America in Congress assembled (two-thirds of each House concurring therein),
That the following article is proposed as an amendment to the Constitution of the United States, to be valid only if ratified by the legislatures of three-fourths of the several States within seven years after the date of final passage of this joint resolution:`SECTION 1. With respect to the right to life, the word `person' as used in this article and in the fifth and fourteenth articles of amendment to the Constitution of the United States applies to all human beings irrespective of age, health, function, or condition of dependency, including their unborn offspring at every stage of their biological development.
`SECTION 2. No unborn person shall be deprived of life by any person: Provided, however, That nothing in this article shall prohibit a law permitting only those medical procedures required to prevent the death of the mother.
`SECTION 3. The Congress and the several States shall have power to enforce this article by appropriate legislation.'.
The article was by M.D. Harmon and was about the anniversary of Roe vs. Wade. The paragraph that has me so disturbed reads as follows-"The culture that accepts abortion also gives a man like Peter Singer an endowed chair at one of the most prestigious schools, Princeton University. There he writes essays for scholarly journals ON THE DESIRABILITY OF LETTING PARENTS KILL THEIR BORN CHILDREN up to six months after delivery!!"
Tell me this isn't so. I can't get this paragraph out of my mind.
We need to spread this around. Ignorance of the general populace is the enemy's greatest weapon.
And you Fetus People aren't Stalinists??
Y'all want to tell everyone what to do. No, not everyone, just every woman.
