“Baby Lives Matter” was painted in large letters overnight outside of a Salt Lake City Planned Parenthood. The art was no doubt inspired by the “Black Lives Matter” painted outside the White House last month. The artist, Tayler Hansen, dedicated his artistry to those abandoned without a voice. “My name is Tayler Hansen. I’m making this video to raise awareness of one of the most egregious human rights violations that has not been properly addressed. In 2019, abortion was the leading cause of death worldwide. “Almost 43 million children were denied the most basic right of all…life. Which is why...

446 school age children shot in Chicago so far this year with strongest gun laws in country – media silent The cesspool known as Chicago probably has the toughest gun laws in the country, yet despite all the shootings, murders, and bloodshed, you never hear a peep about this from the corrupt state run media. In Chicago, there have been 446 school age children shot in leftist utopia run by Rahm Emanuel and that produced Obama, Jesse Jackson, Louis Farrakhan, etc. 62 school aged children have actually been killed by crazed nuts in Chicago so far this year with almost...

COEUR d'ALENE -- When Joseph Edward Duncan III told the FBI he killed a Riverside, Calif., boy in 1997, he also admitted his involvement in the death of two Seattle-area sisters a year earlier, a source close to the investigation said. The source, who demanded anonymity, said Duncan admitted he killed Sammiejo White, 11, and Carmen Cubias, 9, when they disappeared after leaving their north Seattle motel room July 6, 1996. Law enforcement officials, who are under a gag order because of potential federal prosecution of Duncan, would not confirm what Duncan allegedly told the FBI, nor would they deny...

No crime is more inconceivable, more horrific, than a parent killing his own small, innocent child. So the story from Illinois of a very evil man reportedly punching, then stabbing his 8-year-old daughter and her 9-year-old friend to death for going out on a Mother's Day bike ride past curfew chills the bones. Can we officially cringe when both the TV news business and Hollywood see this story and silently think, "Ka-ching"? Lisa Marie Presley is trying to make it as a pop-rock singer again by doing a dull carbon copy of the old Don Henley news-satire song "Dirty Laundry,"...

Laura, Karen, Ann, Lynne, Condi, Katherine - they're successful professors, lawyers, librarians and novelists. They have minds of their own. Yet, they unquestioningly support President Bush even as he robs women of the right to make private decisions about their personal lives. Even worse, they’re masking Bush’s record of restricting women’s rights – convincing women across the country to vote for Bush in November. You're not the only one who finds this disturbing... and you can be part of the growing number of Americans who are ready to do something about it. Imagine what President Bush will be able...

Woody, 29, mother of four, lives in the South Memphis apartment complex where gang-related gunfire killed a 10-year-old boy, Damien Woodard, on April 14. "Gangs don't kill people, people kill people," Woody said last week, sitting outside an Oak Park apartment at twilight with friends. "People in gangs are nothing but individuals that are in selective groups," she said. With at least three Memphis children murdered this spring by stray gunfire linked to gangs or illegal drug deals...

TRUCKEE -- Police were digging in search of human remains Wednesday near the Truckee vacation home of a former Fremont priest accused of child molestation -- a man who lived a few blocks from Amber Swartz when that 7-year-old girl disappeared from outside her Pinole home in 1988. Investigators from several jurisdictions dug first by hand and then with heavy equipment at Stephen Miller Kiesle's property, focused on spots where cadaver-detecting dogs had picked up scents a day earlier, Pinole Police Commander John Miner said. "We couldn't help but think about the Amber case when we were doing this," he...
