I read an
article today about a 6-month-old infant being thrown from a 6th floor
apartment window in New York City. She
is the third such death in New York City in as many months. I
can't say that I'm surprised. Well,
maybe I'm a little surprised that New York City is the only place where it is
happening.
The current trend is only an outgrowth of the recent disclosure
through videos of the Planned Parenthood practice of 'harvesting' not only
fetuses, but human babies who have traversed the birth canal and are
all-but-born. After all, if we can
decide to kill them at the moment of birth, why should we stop there? Some people might make the decision to
'terminate the pregnancy' a few months after birth, and what's to stop
them? We're told that there's no value
to the first nine months of human life - the pre-breathing period!
Oh, I forgot to mention that those videos were 'heavily
edited'. That is Liberal-speak for
'they were reduced from an hour in length to 5-to-10 minutes to capture the
germane facts', but let's not quibble over semantics, shall we. There is little doubt that the practice is a
daily one, and 'harvesting' is a good way of describing what Planned Parenthood
is doing - growing crops of humans in the womb and then plucking the fruit for
its ripe tissue.
I'm not sure with what crime the authorities should charge
the woman in the above cited article.
Is it really murder, or should the charge be 'failure to recycle', as in
failure to allow the harvesting of usable cells?
Why are we shocked that some people have taken our callous
opinion of what constitutes a human
being and applied it to their own miserable situation? And what's to stop us from applying the same
logic to those elderly people who have lost their value; especially those who
have dementia, Alzheimer's, or are otherwise unable to think for and care for
themselves. Look for articles about
people throwing their elderly parents out of
high windows or off bridges in the near future.
Where does it stop? Hmmm?
(Now that I've opened the wound, I do hope you will realize
that I am attempting to be facetious and satirical, and that I DO NOT condone
the practice of throwing anyone out of a sixth-floor window. Just so we're clear on that. And, since I'm now in serious mode, I got to
thinking that maybe my title for this column gave me insight into what the
modern term, 'Progressive', as applied to some politicians, really means.)
