Obama Admin Admits Chinas One-Child Policy Ups Sex Trafficking,
Wont Condemn It
The US State Department this past week released its yearly, Trafficking in Persons Report. China received an automatic downgrade to the lowest ranking, Tier 3, for being a destination country for sex-trafficking.
The State Department acknowledged the one-child policy as the key source of demand for sex-trafficking and forced prostitution within the country, but remained silent regarding the abolition of the harmful policy in its list of policy recommendations for China. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/ 06/23/obama-admin-admits- chinas-one-child-policy-ups- sex-trafficking-wont-condemn- it/

Despite New Baby, Kanye West Promotes Abortion in New Album Yeezus
Well, it finally happened: rapper Kanye West and professional famehound Kim Kardashian had their baby, a girl, this weekend. Unfortunately for the happy couple, though, the birth was marred by an ill-timed leaking of a single off Kanye Wests newest album, Yeezus. (The title is a mix of Kanyes nickname, Ye, and Jesus. Get it?)
Just before Kim gave birth to his child, the song Blood on the Leaves hit the internet, and considering that this song is basically an ode to abortion, the leak was ill-timed indeed. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/ 06/22/despite-new-baby-kanye- west-promotes-abortion-in-new- album-yeezus/
Scientists

Whos War on Women? Gosnell and China Hurt Woman Via Abortion
Gosnell never happened. There never was a trial inPhiladelphia. Testimony was never received in a public courtroom that this one is big enough to walk me to the bus. We never heard that it was raining blood in that human abattoir, that late-term abortion facility.
Gosnell never happened. There never was a trial inPhiladelphia. Testimony was never received in a public courtroom that this one is big enough to walk me to the bus. We never heard that it was raining blood in that human abattoir, that late-term abortion facility.
There were never
babies born alive, screaming as they were thrown into a toilet. There were
never children who survived and who were stabbed in the neck and whose spinal
cords were snip-snipped by Kermit Gosnell. None of this ever occurred. Those
rows of reserved seatsso denoted for the national mediaremained
empty for weeks. Dont look. Dont report. If you ignore it, it
all goes away. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/ 06/22/whos-war-on-women- gosnell-and-china-hurt-woman- via-abortion/
A story in the Telegraph claims that Japanese scientists may soon grow human organs in animalsmade from human stem cellsfor later use in transplant surgery. I am dubious.
From the story: A panel of scientists and legal experts appointed by the government has drawn up a recommendation that will form the basis of new guidelines for Japans world-leading embryonic research. There is widespread support in Japan for research that has raised red flags in other countries. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/
Poll: Irish Want Free Vote, Referendum on Abortion Not Government
Bill
An opinion poll carried out by Amárach Research on behalf of the Life Institute and Family and Life shows that the vast majority of Irish voters believe Taoiseach Enda Kenny is wrong to try to force pro-life TDs and Senators to vote for his abortion legislation.
It also shows that 86 per cent of voters would prefer to see the abortion issue resolved by popular referendum than by the politicians in Leinster House. A similar proportion believe that if legislators are to decide the issue they should be allowed a free vote. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/ 06/22/poll-irish-want-free- vote-referendum-on-abortion- not-government-bill/

Canadian Abortion Activist: Naïve Reporters Should
Shut Out Pro-Lifers
Joyce Arthur, executive director of the Abortion Rights Coalition of Canada, recently blasted media outlets for being too balanced in their coverage of Dr. Henry Morgentalers death by interviewing pro-life Canadians.
The pro-life perspective is
an extremist view, not deserving of legitimacy and does
not deserve equal time or respect in Canada railed Arthur in a recent
Rabble.ca piece. According to Arthur, naïve reporters should
not be interested in the pro-life expression of concern for womens
well-being, or the perspective that all human beings, including those
at earlier stages of development, deserve human rights. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/Joyce Arthur, executive director of the Abortion Rights Coalition of Canada, recently blasted media outlets for being too balanced in their coverage of Dr. Henry Morgentalers death by interviewing pro-life Canadians.
Michigan Cmte OKs Bill to Help Stop Secret Abortions on Teen Girls
On June 18, the Michigan Senate Judiciary Committee approved, by a 3-1 vote, legislation designed to prevent minors seeking abortion without parental consent from judge shopping.
On June 18, the Michigan Senate Judiciary Committee approved, by a 3-1 vote, legislation designed to prevent minors seeking abortion without parental consent from judge shopping.
Minor girls who have
been denied a judicial bypass at one court would not be permitted to seek
a bypass at another county court. S.B. 254 also creates guidelines for judges
in making a determination regarding the maturity of the girl seeking an abortion,
and her best interests. These guidelines are consistent with the line of questioning
recommended by the Michigan Benchbook, and include taking into consideration
whether the minor girls parents have neglected or abused her. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/ 06/22/michigan-cmte-oks-bill- to-help-stop-secret-abortions- on-teen-girls/
Will
England Follow the U.S. in Voting for a Late-Term Abortion Ban?
The Republican-controlled US House of Representatives has passed a bill that would reduce late abortions. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/ 06/23/will-england-follow-the- u-s-in-voting-for-a-late-term- abortion-ban/

Web Site Behind Ads With Pregnant Teen Boys Promotes Abortion
If you live in Chicago, or anywhere else with a news channel, its likely youve seen one of these ads depicting pregnant teenage boys. The Chicago Department of Health followed Milwaukees lead by plastering them on billboards and buses across the city in an attempt to lower their teen pregnancy rate, which is reportedly 1.5 times higher than the national average. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/
Louisiana
Gov. Bobby Jindal Vetoes Womb-for-Hire Surrogacy Bill
The Louisiana Legislature recently passed a bill that threatened to transform the state into our version of Indiaa country in which destitute and desperate women are exploited for their gestational capacities by a surrogacy industry and its foreign customers. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/ 06/22/louisiana-gov-bobby- jindal-vetoes-womb-for-hire- surrogacy-bill/
British General Medical Council Must Support Conscience Rights on Abortion
When two Glasgow midwives won the right to opt out of supervising abortions last April I suggested that the General Medical Council (GMC) needed to revise its professional guidance on the matter which now seemed to be at odds with the law. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/ 06/23/british-general-medical- council-must-support- conscience-rights-on-abortion/
