Abortion Activist: “Yes Babies in the Womb are Human Being, But So What”
Life News ^ | 1/23/15 | Sarah Zagorski

She says, “Here’s the complicated reality in which we live: All life is not equal. That’s a difficult thing for liberals like me to talk about, lest we wind up looking like death-panel-loving, kill-your-grandma-and-your-precious-baby storm troopers.”

And yet they become enraged when we talk about death panels.

I see this article in a different light. The abortionists have to change their language because they see the tide is changing because their arguments are being rebuffed left and right. I see this as a very hopeful sign.

I appreciate Mary Elizabeth Williams’s candor. At least she's being honest about what's at stake with abortion: a human life versus the personal autonomy of the person upon which the first life is dependent. Her assertion that the woman is “the boss” because it's her body is logical.

Do I come to the same conclusion as MEW? No. In fact, I come to the exact opposite conclusion. However, MEW does us a favor by spelling out what “pro-choice” really means.

We should circulate pieces like MEW’s because they tell the TRUTH about abortion. Another piece every freeper should google is “We Do Abortions Here: a Nurse's Story” by Sallie Tisdale. Read the truth; tell the truth; spread the truth.

(I emphasize that I do NOT support MEW or Sallie Tisdale’s conclusions about the morality or legality of abortion! I simply am pleased they don't dodge the reality of the fetus/baby's existence and the “termination” of such.)

Using that logic, anyone is expendable if they are an inconvenience to someone who is able to kill them.

babies, old people, inconvenient spouses, bosses, neighbors, or anyone that is annoying you at the time.

“I would put the life of a mother over the life of a fetus every single time — "

She is still holding onto the LIE that it's always about saving the life of the Mother.

"She says, “Fetus’ can be a human life without having the same rights as the woman in whose body it resides. She’s the boss. Her life and what is right for her circumstances and her health should automatically trump the rights of the non-autonomous entity inside of her. Always.”"

Might want to check out the 13th amendment on that one.....I don't think anyone gets to trump the rights of another any more.

There are exceedingly few cases where the life of the mother is at risk AND the baby is actually viable. Most cases where the mother is at risk are ectopic pregnancies where there is no chance of the baby living.

When abortionists speak of "the life of the mother" they actually are referring to a woman's DESIRE to not be pregnant. They think that having a baby can negatively impact "the life of the mother" in much the same way as they believe having the wrong hairstyle or wearing the wrong clothes will.

When I was in college 20 years ago this argument was already lost by the left (as to whether or not babies in the womb were human beings); they knew science clearly sided with the pro-life movement on that point. That didn’t change the argument, though; a female “professor” used an example where you wake up with a somebody connected to you with tubes, etc. keeping them alive - she then asked if you had any responsibility towards them. The idea of babies resulting from sexual intercourse played no part in the discussion.

Any time my school calls for donations I direct them to ask Professor xxx for the money instead. These are evil people who have no misconceptions about what they are doing. Race plays a major factor in the opinion of any white person I know who supports the legal infanticide of abortion.
