I am a Canadian and I’ve been praying for this ballot effort for many months because this could really be the beginning of fetal rights in the United States.
What does the proposal actually say? The AP had a really biased headline saying that it could pave the way for “Egg rights”. But the snippets of the amendment don’t lead me to believe that.
I want to bring to your attention the plight of Dr. Oscar Elias Biscet, an activist who is fighting the good fight in Cuba.
He is a Cuban dissident who, in 2003, was sentenced to 25 years in jail in Cuba for, among other things, insulting the fatherland and unpatriotic acts.
Biscet is a major figure in the fight against Castro in Cuba. He is well-known, but the MSM in the Western world seems to have completely ignored this story.
In jail, he is suffering from recurring infections, high blood pressure, poor dental health (he's lost molars) and is slowly losing his eyesight. He is dependent on his family's providing medicine to stay healthy and alive.
I think this seems to me to be a worthwhile story to follow. He is fighting the good fight, fighting for the things many of us fight for, but he has gone to jail for it.
