Media Ignores Abortion Doc Who Killed Babies With His Bare Hands
The name Kermit Gosnell has become familiar to most Americans because of the gruesome abortions and infanticides that resulted a jury finding him guilty on three counts of first-degree murder. The mainstream media either ignored Gosnells murder trial or barely reported on it.
This week, LifeNews exposed a second Kermit Gosnell Douglas Karpen who, like the Philadelphia-based abortion practitioner, is also killing babies born alive after botched abortions. Unlike Gosnell, who killed babies by jamming medical scissors into their necks at his Houston abortion clinic, former employees of Karpen testify he goes one shocking step further, he kills the babies wit his bare hands by twisting their necks execution style. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/ 05/16/media-ignores-abortion- doc-who-killed-babies-with- his-bare-hands/

Pro-Abortion Planned Parenthoods New Ad Campaign: Your Baby
Will Thank You
The other day, I was in the middle of doing research online when I stumbled across a Planned Parenthood ad.
The other day, I was in the middle of doing research online when I stumbled across a Planned Parenthood ad.
Planned Parenthood,
over the years, has run some pretty shocking ad campaigns. Without a doubt,
this one is the worst Ive ever seen:
New video footage of the interviews with the jurors in the murder trial of abortion practitioner Kermit Gosnell shows one juror talking about how difficult it was to view pictures of the babies Gosnell killed.
Jury Foreman David Misko says: It was definitely hard to see the photos. There was cases where the photos of the babies were blown up and they were right in front of your face and you had to stareit was definitely hard seeing that. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/
Eric Holder Unsure if Law Stopping After-Birth Abortions Has Been
Enforced
Attorney General Eric Holder told a Congressional committee yesterday he is unsure if a federal law stopping after-birth abortions has been enforced.
Congress approved and President George W. bush signed into law a measure known as the Born Alive Infant Protection Act, which requires that appropriate medical care and treatment be given to babies who survive failed abortions. That law should have been used to prosecute abortion practitioner Kermit Gosnell, who killed infants in a gruesome abortion method that involved birthing them and snipping their necks. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/ 05/16/eric-holder-unsure-if- law-stopping-after-birth- abortions-has-been-enforced/
