Abortion Doc Who Twists Off Babies Heads Killed Woman in Failed Abortion
The similarities between convicted abortion practitioner Kermit Gosnell and Houston-based abortion practitioner Douglas Karpen are striking.

Not only does Karpen kill babies born alive following abortions in a similar procedure that more closely resembles infanticide than abortion, but Karpen also killed a patient in a botched abortion. Gosnell was convicted of murder for severing the necks of just-born babies but he also found guilty of involuntary manslaughter in the death of patient Karnamaya Mongar, who died after a botched abortion. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/05/20/abortion-doc-who-twists-off-babies-heads-killed-woman-in-failed-abortion/

Abortion Doc Who Kept Remains of 35 Aborted Babies Loses License
The Maryland Board of Physicians has permanently revoked the license of abortionist Nicola I. Riley in a scathing 24-page order issued May 6, 2013, that prohibits her from ever again applying for licensure or reinstatement of her license.

In view of the fraudulent and deceptive nature of Dr. Riley s criminal conduct, her demonstrated lack of candor and integrity on her application to the Board and to Utah and Wyoming, and her demonstrated propensity for dishonesty and misrepresentation, Dr. Riley s unprofessional conduct is not remediable, stated the Board. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/05/20/abortion-doc-who-kept-remains-of-35-aborted-babies-loses-license/

Webcast Will Expose Abortionist Who Broke Babies Necks With His Hands
Americans love their reality TV, but when it comes to the reality of what happens in the country s abortion clinics, they tune out. While the clinics may not all be as filthy as Kermit Gosnell s, the reality of what happens there is still the same: babies born alive die painful and violent deaths.

No one really knows how many children are killed by barbarians like Gosnell and Douglas Karpen, a Texas abortionist so sadistic that employees say he broke the necks of newborns with his bare hands. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/05/20/webcast-will-expose-abortionist-who-broke-babies-necks-with-his-hands/

Daily Show Creator Lizz Winstead: Oklahoma Tornado Meant for Conservatives
As families and schoolchildren hunkered down in storm shelters to avoid a massive tornado today near Oklahoma City, a liberal comedian found time to use the disaster to attack conservatives.

The subtext of a tweet from Daily Show co-creator Lizz Winstead was clearly meant to insult the pro-life and family values people who live in the state of Oklahoma, one of the most Republican-oriented states in the nation. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/05/20/daily-show-creator-lizz-winstead-oklahoma-tornado-meant-for-conservatives/

Senator: Investigate Doc Who Twists Off Babies Necks in Abortions
A U.S. senator from Texas says a recently-exposed abortion practitioner who is the second Kermit Gosnell and twists the heads off of babies he brutally kills in late-term abortions needs to become a subject of investigation.

Senator Ted Cruz recently spoke on the Senate floor in support of Sen. Mike Lee s (R-UT) resolution to investigate abortion practices in the U.S. and ensure that clinics like Kermit Gosnell s have no place in our society. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/05/20/senator-investigate-doc-who-twists-off-babies-necks-in-abortions/

Conservative Activists Plan National Protests at IRS Offices Tuesday
With the scandal concerning the IRS and its targeting of pro-life and conservative groups growing, national conservative activists are planning nationwide rallies Tuesday at IRS offices across the country.

On behalf of Tea Party, Patriot groups, 9/12, liberty activists, and the American people, we are calling for anyone and everyone to protest the IRS complete abuse of power on Tuesday, May 21, 2013 at noon local time, the Tea Party Patriots web site says. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/05/20/conservative-activists-plan-national-protests-at-irs-offices-tuesday/

Obama s Top Lawyers Knew About IRS Targeting Pro-Life Groups in April
New reports today indicate President Barack Obama s top attorney knew in April that the Internal Revenue Service was targeting pro-life and conservative groups. The reports show Obama s top lawyer was notified in April that the Treasury Department s inspector general had finished an audit of the IRS over the allegations.

As The Hill reports: http://www.lifenews.com/2013/05/20/obamas-top-lawyers-knew-about-irs-targeting-pro-life-groups-in-april/

NARAL Opposes Bill Banning Abortions After 20 Weeks Nationwide
Just how extreme is the pro-abortion group NARAL? The organization is now on record opposing a new bill in Congress that would ban abortions after 20 weeks of pregnancy because scientific evidence shows unborn babies feel pain by at least 20 weeks. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/05/20/naral-opposes-bill-banning-abortions-after-20-weeks-nationwide/

20-Year-Old Man Kills, Sets on Fire 14-Year-Old Who Refused Abortion

Designer of Beijing Olympics Opening Faces $27M in Fines, Broke One-Child Policy

Heroic News: “Another abortion butcher has medical license stripped” plus 3 more

• Another abortion butcher has medical license stripped
• Pro life in Hollywood
• Major IVF 'breakthrough' paves way for even earlier eugenics
• Mapping a route to stem cell therapies

Another abortion butcher has medical license stripped Posted: 20 May 2013 10:46 AM PDT The Maryland Board of Physicians has permanently revoked the license of abortionist Nicola I. Riley in a scathing 24-page order issued on May 6, which prohibits her from ever again applying for licensure or reinstatement of her license.

Pro life in Hollywood Posted: 20 May 2013 10:43 AM PDT Jim Caviezel, famed for his role as Christ in The Passion, and currently starring as the leading man in TV’s Person of Interest, is no stranger to being, well, different in Hollywood. From his publicly Catholic faith to his committed pro-life views, he stands in stark contrast to the typical movie star.

Major IVF 'breakthrough' paves way for even earlier eugenics Posted: 20 May 2013 04:52 AM PDT Only 24 percent of IVF embryos which are implanted in women are born alive and well, according to data from UK public health authorities - figures in the rest of the developed world are fairly similar. The research team believe that the birth rate could shoot up to around 74 percent with this new imaging technique once they 'perfect' it.

Mapping a route to stem cell therapies Posted: 20 May 2013 04:14 AM PDT Dr Jose Polo of the Australian Regenerative Medicine Institute (ARMI) and the Department of Anatomy and Developmental Biology and his team, with collaborators at Harvard, have comprehensively mapped, for the first time, the process by which mature adult cells are re-programmed to become an induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cell.

NRLC Supports New Nationwide Ban on Late Abortions to End Gosnell-style Atrocities

Americans were shocked at the murders of innocent babies and other crimes of Philadelphia abortionist Kermit Gosnell.  They’re glad he’s going to prison and won’t ever be able to kill another baby, inside or outside the womb. But if you think that ends the atrocities, think again. The tragic reality is that there may be other Gosnells in your own state or community.  History tells us wherever late abortions occur, there’s a heightened risk of the killing or neglect of babies born alive, and of medical dangers to their mothers.             For example, Texas Lt. Gov. David Dewhurst recently called for an investigation of multiple allegations that Houston abortionist Douglas Karpen delivered live babies during late abortions and killed them by twisting their heads off their little necks.  LeRoy Carhart, who sued in the U.S. Supreme Court for his “right” to commit partial-birth abortions (now illegal), moved his late abortion practice from Nebraska to Maryland, a state where he can perform late abortions with impunity.  A patient of his recently died after requiring emergency treatment at a nearby hospital, and according to a new undercover video tape by the group Live Action, Carhart describes how a baby he aborts softens like “meat in a Crock-Pot.” Gosnell didn’t just do abortions at his Philadelphia facility; he also worked at an abortion clinic in Delaware.  There, abortionists Albert Dworkin and Arturo Apolinario had their licenses temporarily suspended, and Apolinario is reportedly charged with a crime similar to what first brought Gosnell to the attention of federal authorities – illegally prescribing drugs. James Pendergraft is known to Floridians and Virginians for a long and sordid history, including a criminal conviction and having his medical license suspended in Florida four times.  But he reportedly has kept his abortion clinics operating by hiring other abortionists to continue performing late abortions.  He lost a court decision in 2011 in which a jury awarded $36.7 million for injuries in an abortion in which a baby girl was born alive, but has suffered life-long handicaps.  Lifesitenews reported that a witness to the trial said a clinic staffer “cavalierly stated that yes, babies were delivered into the toilet all the time and many times are still alive, wiggling around in the toilet.” This list goes on and on.  It’s time it stopped! (Click below to see expert medical testimony in Congress on how some of these late abortions are performed. Warning: the description is graphic in nature). National Right to Life has helped create and pass effective laws in nine states that stop the abuse of elective late abortions.  The laws are called the Pain-Capable Unborn Child Protection Act, and they ban elective abortions at the stage when compelling medical evidence shows an unborn baby can feel pain. When our law was passed in its first state, Nebraska, it stopped LeRoy Carhart from doing late abortions there.  But tragically, he simply packed up his deadly instruments and began performing abortions in another state. The lesson is these late abortions won’t end until we outlaw them everywhere! That’s why we are so excited to announce that U.S. Rep. Trent Franks (R-Ariz.) is authoring a bill that will ban these abortions nationwide when a baby is capable of feeling pain, generally said to be before 20 weeks in the womb.  The first hearing on what will become the nationwide Pain-Capable Unborn Child Protection Act (H.R. 1797) will be held Thursday, May 23rd at 10:00 a.m.in the U.S. House Judiciary Subcommittee on the Constitution and Civil Justice. You can help pass this life-saving law!  Please help us build the case in Congress and across the country to pass this legislation! We plan to run ads on the need for this legislation – please help us pay to air them! We need to increase our media outreach and grassroots contacts through all channels, such as mail, phone, and internet to get Americans everywhere to support the bill and tell their Members of Congress to support it – please help us pay for that outreach! America is not this barbaric.  Please help us prove that and save these vulnerable babies – babies developed enough to feel the excruciating pain that accompanies an abortion – by passing this humane law. But we will need your help to do it!  Please forward this important message about this ground-breaking bill.  Please talk about the need for Rep. Franks’ bill with your Members of Congress. There are easy-to-use tools to do this available on the NRLC Legislative Action Center.  And please share a generous donation of $50, or $100 or perhaps $500 so we can get the word out to every corner of this great land. Help is coming for these helpless babies!  Please join me in doing everything we can to save their lives and end the nation-wide atrocity of late abortions! Carol Tobias National Right to Life President      National Right to Life 512 10th St. NW, Washington, DC 20004 202.626.8800 - www.nrlc.org

Man Takes 14-Year-Old to Planned Parenthood for Abortion to Hide Rape
A man in Washington state took a 14-year-old girl to a Planned Parenthood clinic for an abortion to cover up his sexual assault on the teenage girl. The abortion business apparently did the abortion without hesitation.
According to the Bellingham Herald: A Washington State man who impregnated a preteen girl and forced her to have an abortion must serve a six-year prison sentence, then leave the country. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/05/19/man-takes-14-year-old-to-planned-parenthood-for-abortion-to-hide-rape/

Abortion Doc After Baby Born Alive: “What could I do? I killed the baby.”
By now, most people have heard about the allegations that came out about Dr. Douglas Karpen. Four former clinic workers are alleging that he killed babies that were born alive as often as several times a day. What you may not know is that this is not the first time former clinic workers have come forth with accusations of infanticide.
In taped testimony for the Pro-Life Action League, which can be read in its entirety here, former clinic worker Joy Davis tells a harrowing story of working with former abortionist Dr. Tommy Tucker. Tommy Tucker lost his license after an investigation into the death of a woman at his clinic. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/05/19/abortion-doc-after-baby-born-alive-what-could-i-do-i-killed-the-baby/

Scandal of IRS Targeting Pro-Lifers May be Biggest Since Watergate
If the Watergate scandal went down as one of the worst in history, the recently revealed series of government abuses nicknamed “IRSGate” is on its way to becoming just as infamous, as details of rampant targeting and harassment of American entities (run, of course, by American citizens), based purely on the organizations’ or citizens’ political views, continues to emerge.

It began when Lois Lerner, Director of the IRS’s Exempt Organizations, admitted in a press conference that IRS agents had targeted conservative groups for intensive and inappropriate screening, as well as unmerited delays of their application, and harassment. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/05/19/scandal-of-irs-targeting-pro-lifers-may-be-biggest-since-watergate/

Gosnell Case Exposes Planned Parenthood and the Abortion Industry
As the trial of Kermit Gosnell exposed to the world the evil, ugly, and indefensible truth of Big Abortion, Planned Parenthood and NARAL Pro-Choice America (formerly National Abortion Rights Action League) were quick to throw him under the bus, applauding his conviction and implausibly blaming the pro-life community for Gosnell’s house of horrors.
But that moment of sanity by America’s biggest proponents of abortion won’t stop them from defending the gruesome practice of abortion. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/05/19/gosnell-case-exposes-planned-parenthood-and-the-abortion-industry/

Woman With First Womb Transplant Ends Pregnancy, Baby Had No Heartbeat
This is so incredibly sad for so many reasons. There is really nothing else to say. (I have already expressed my concerns about uterine transplants here.)
From the UK’s Daily Mail: A woman who was the first to have a successful womb transplant from a dead donor has had her pregnancy terminated after the embryo showed no heartbeat, doctors in Turkey have said. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/05/19/woman-with-first-womb-transplant-end-pregnancy-baby-had-no-heartbeat/
Group That Failed to Report Kermit Gosnell Blames Pro-Lifers
According to Vicki Saporta, president of the National Abortion Federation, the “abortion stigma” is to blame for Kermit Gosnell’s now-notorious house of horrors.
In a rather weak column for USA Today, Saporta tries to claim that abortion is totally safe and that Kermit Gosnell is just an aberration, an anomaly. If only those icky pro-lifers would stop trying to save those ridiculous babies, Kermit Gosnell wouldn’t have existed! http://www.lifenews.com/2013/05/19/group-that-failed-to-report-kermit-gosnell-blames-pro-lifers/

Celebration: An Abortion Clinic Closes for Good in Michigan
As I reached out to take a bright yellow balloon with the bold word “LIFE” stamped across it, I was struck by the monumental significance of the event we were celebrating. A crowd of about 120 people, adults and children alike, was gathered on the grassy lawn behind a gray, dismal, not too imposing-looking building – the kind of building that usually wouldn’t merit a second glance. But we were there on that beautiful spring day, May 11, for good reason – a blessed kind of reason. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/05/19/celebration-an-abortion-clinic-closes-for-good-in-michigan/

Adoption: A Beautiful Choice That’s Better Than Abortion
I will be participating in the Step Forward for Orphans March to bring awareness to the more than 10 million children around the world who live outside a family setting, in an institution, or even on the street. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/05/19/adoption-a-beautiful-choice-thats-better-than-abortion/

Group Tells Women to Lie to Family Members to Get Money for Abortion
If you don’t work in policy or the pro-life movement, or if you’re not particularly passionate about the issue of abortion, you may never have heard of the Hyde Amendment, which prohibits the use of federal funds for abortions (with the usual exceptions of cases of rape or incest or where a mother’s life is at risk). http://www.lifenews.com/2013/05/19/group-tells-women-to-lie-to-family-members-to-get-money-for-abortion/
Man Indicted Under Unborn Victims Law for Killing His Unborn Child
History may have been made last week when federal prosecutors used the Unborn Victims of Violence Act (UVVA) to indict a man who is alleged to have killed his own unborn child. It is quite likely that this is the first use of the UVVA. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/05/19/man-indicted-under-unborn-victims-law-for-killing-his-unborn-child/

• DOJ on gays: 'silence will be interpreted as disapproval'
• The Texas newborn massacre
• Workers in late-term abortuaries are starting to panic
• French president signs gay 'marriage' into law

DOJ on gays: 'silence will be interpreted as disapproval' Posted: 18 May 2013 06:01 AM PDT This lawless administration is now ordering federal employees – against their will – to affirm sexual behaviors that every major world religion, thousands of years of history and uncompromising human biology reject.

The Texas newborn massacre Posted: 18 May 2013 05:47 AM PDT Houston doctor Douglas Karpen is accused by four former employees of delivering live fetuses during third-trimester abortions and killing them by either snipping their spinal cord, stabbing a surgical instrument into their heads or 'twisting their heads off their necks with his own bare hands'.

Workers in late-term abortuaries are starting to panic Posted: 18 May 2013 05:40 AM PDT More revelations like those made about Kermit Gosnell and Douglas Karpen will soon come to light, because abortion workers are beginning to “panic” that participating in infanticide could land them in jail, according to a veteran pro-life activist.

French president signs gay 'marriage' into law Posted: 18 May 2013 01:50 AM PDT French President Francois Hollande has signed a law authorizing gay 'marriage' and adoption by same-sex couples, after months of nationwide protests and wrenching debate.

Judie Brown: "A Gosnell lesson"

 

Judie Brown

A Gosnell lesson

Judie Brown
May 18, 2013

While we were all horrified by the actions of Kermit Gosnell, we should likewise be horrified by the millions of babies killed since abortion was decriminalized, and by the number of lives lost because of contraception. A baby is a baby from the moment he is created, but most people either choose to ignore that fact or remain uneducated. We must learn from the horrors we have seen and vow to do whatever we can to ensure that life, in all stages, is respected and protected.
