ABC Continues Shameful Blackout of Kermit Gosnell Trial Coverage
Forty six days after the grisly trial of abortionist Kermit Gosnell began, ABC still has not uttered one word about the case.

Gosnell is charged with the murder of four infants and one patient, yet the network has conducted a total blackout. During the same period, ABC s Good Morning America has aired 53 segments and 148 minutes almost two and a half hours of coverage for other sensational criminal trials. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/05/05/abc-continues-shameful-blackout-of-kermit-gosnell-trial-coverage/

Abortionist Strangles 28-Week Baby Born Alive After Abortion
In 1977, abortion was legal throughout the country during all nine months of pregnancy. When an obstetrician gynecologist told teenager Mary W that she was 28 weeks pregnant, he suggested that she give the baby up for adoption, as few doctors in the area were willing to perform abortions that late.

But Mary was determined, and she managed to find an abortionist Dr. William Baxter Waddill. On March 2, 1977, Mary arrived at Westminster Community Hospital for a saline abortion. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/05/05/abortionist-strangles-28-week-baby-born-alive-after-abortion/

Like Kermit Gosnell, Josef Mengele Was an Abortionist on Trial
During the Nazi holocaust, Josef Mengele used concentration camp prisoners, including young children, as test subjects for a catalog of demented medical experiments. Documents uncovered by Allied forces revealed that, before they were killed, Mengele s victims were subjected to pain on a scale that can only be described as unimaginable.

After the war, Mengele became known as the The Angel of Death and international prosecutors wanted to put him on trial. But he had fled Germany and could not be found. Then, in 1985, a body was exhumed from a South American grave that DNA evidence confirmed to be his. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/05/04/like-kermit-gosnell-josef-mengele-was-an-abortionist-on-trial/

I Worked in an Abortion Clinic Like Gosnell s House of Horrors
I looked in the paper and saw a doctor s office in need of a bilingual receptionist, someone who could schedule appointments for patients it was perfect for me. I didn t realize it was an abortion clinic.

I was a Christian but abortion was not at the top of my list of concerns. I thought it was not a great option but really depended upon the woman s situation. In my desperation, I put my beliefs aside, only worrying about putting food on the table for my three children and one on the way. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/05/04/i-worked-in-an-abortion-clinic-like-gosnells-house-of-horrors/



Gosnell is Not New: I Witnessed Babies Born Alive After Abortions in 1983
Dr. David A. Grimes once stated that reporting an aborted baby born alive was like turning yourself in to the IRS. Grimes was chief of Abortion Surveillance at the Center for Disease Control (CDC) in Atlanta, GA., and two nights a week and on Saturdays he would perform late-term abortions, his specialty, at Atlanta Hospital for Women, also known as Midtown Hospital. Dr. Willard Cates, his colleague at the CDC, also performed abortions, and had privileges at several Atlanta hospitals.

The year was 1983, and we were beginning to learn the Language of Choice salting out, products of conception, parts, etc. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/05/05/gosnell-is-not-new-i-witnessed-babies-born-alive-after-abortions-in-1983/

Are Kermit Gosnell s Acts a Logical Result of Pro-Choice Philosophy?
Where did actions such as those taken by abortionist Kermit Gosnell begin? Is there a logical explanation for practices that reflect such a callous disregard for human life?

According to Bishop James Conley, of the diocese of Lincoln, Nebraska, the philosophy of choice is the culprit. His recent column has exposed a pivotal piece of the puzzle that clarifies the background for the brutality imposed on babies and their mothers by Gosnell and his ilk. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/05/05/are-kermit-gosnells-acts-a-logical-result-of-pro-choice-philosophy/

Publix Mother s Day Commercial Affirms Dignity of Unborn Babies
In anticipation of Mother s Day last year, Publix supermarkets released a commercial that acknowledges the role of a mother both before and after her child is born.
