We are repulsed by the video of a white police officer kneeling on the neck of a defenseless black man. The senseless killing has sparked outrage throughout the country.
We live in fear as over 100,000 Americans die of COVID19, debating the merits of face masks and blaming the government for failing to respond to the threat sooner.
Two stories dominate the news.
Meanwhile, 50 million babies torn from the womb since 1973 in the U.S.. Fifty million defenseless infants, with brains and hearts and limbs, ripped apart by vacuums and partial birth abortion. A hundred million eyes denied the chance to see the world. A hundred million little feet denied the opportunity to walk on the earth.
The senseless choking death of a man is outrageous. The tragic loss of life to a pandemic is sad. Yet nothing in the news about the daily slaughter of innocent babies.
If the “right to choose” supersedes the value of human life, why don’t we look the other way when a defenseless man is murdered by police or nursing home residents are killed by a virus?
Hate, anger and division. We’d be aghast if a mother chose to kill her six month old baby, yet we turn the other way when she chooses to kill that baby before it is born.
Black lives matter. Elderly lives matter. Infant life matters. One, One Hundred Thousand, Fifty Million. Wake up America.
