European Parliament Rejects Bill Declaring Abortion a Fundamental Human Right
The European Parliament today rejected a report that recommended that EU nations declare abortion to be a human right and to make abortion available within all public health systems of member countries. Adoption of the report would have placed more pressure on pro-life nations like Ireland, Poland and Malta to legalize abortion on demand.

“The report states that 20 member nations permit abortion on demand (generally with a gestational limit). Of the seven remaining nations, three have very liberal restrictions regarding abortion while three nations will perform abortions only under more limited circumstances,” says pro-life analyst Nora Sullivan. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/10/22/european-parliament-rejects-bill-declaring-abortion-a-fundamental-human-right/
Democratic Congressman Compares Tea Party Members to Klu Klux Klan
Rep. Alan Grayson, a pro-abortion Florida Democrat, is coming under heavy criticism today for comparing the Tea Party to the Ku Klux Klan in an email to supporters. The email attacking pro-life conservatives features a photo of a burning cross.

In the email, Grayson said “the Tea Party is no more popular than the Klan” and he claims the “ultimate Tea Party Republican desire” is to “bring about the End of Days.”

Kermit Gosnell-Like Abortion Biz Does 4-6 Abortions an Hour in Atlanta in Filthy Conditions
Ever since the Kermit Gosnell case exposed the grizzly truth behind the real abortion industry, many states have begun cracking down on abortion providers who put profits ahead of patient safety.

At least 58 unscrupulous abortion providers have been closed down after regulators started doing their jobs. Many have moved out of state rather than submit to the same regulatory environment that other non-ambulatory surgical facilities adhere to.

Komen Still Sends Big Bucks to Planned Parenthood Abortion Business
Komen for the Cure was the subject of national controversy when it decided to stop providing grants to the Planned Parenthood abortion business and, following pressure from abortion advocates and the media, reversed course days later.

The headlines were an alert to pro-life advocates to not trust the breast cancer charity and its donations and number of Race for the Cure event participants have suffered as a result. Since then, Komen has restablished itself as a reliable funder of the nation’s biggest abortion company — to the tune of $700,000, according to one pro-life leader. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/10/22/komen-still-sends-big-bucks-to-planned-parenthood-abortion-business/

No One Will Ever Kill Babies Again at the Planned Parenthood I Managed
September 7, 2013. It was like I was seeing my former Planned Parenthood clinic for the first time. The iron fence was still up. The automatic gate keeping unwelcome guests out of the parking lot was closed. It looked the same, yet things had drastically changed. My former abortion clinic was now closed. The sign had been taken down. The doors were locked. No one was in that building.

And now, no one will ever walk through those doors seeking an abortion again. No woman will ever be sold their lies again…not there, not in Bryan, Texas.http://www.lifenews.com/2013/10/22/no-one-will-ever-kill-babies-again-at-the-planned-parenthood-i-managed/

Three Abortionists Quit Struggling Wichita, Kansas Abortion Business
Operation Rescue has learned that Trust Women PAC, run by Wichita abortion clinic owner Julie Burkhart, has paid $3,000 in fines to the Federal Election Commission for violations of Federal Election Law. This comes at a time when at least three abortionists have quit employment at Burkhart’s South Wind Women’s Center LLC, which now struggles to remain open in the building once owned by George Tiller.
In July, Operation Rescue filed a complaint against Trust Women PAC after its investigation of public filings showed shoddy bookkeeping and improper disbursements to South Wind Women’s Center, a for-profit abortion clinic in Wichita, Kansas. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/10/22/three-abortionists-quit-struggling-wichita-kansas-abortion-business/

Mother Could Lose Custody of Her Kids to Her Ex-Husband Because She Had an Abortion
A nasty custody battle in New York City took a shocking turn when Acting Supreme Court Justice Lori Sattler allowed the ex-husband, Manuel John Mehos and his lawyer Eleanor Alter, to use his ex-wife Lisa Mehos’ recent abortion against her.
The judge’s decision outraged Mrs. Mehos’ lawyer Emily Jane Goodman, and abortion rights activists as well, even prompting some to show up in court sporting “I had an abortion” t-shirts in support of Mrs. Mehos. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/10/22/mother-could-lose-custody-of-her-kids-to-her-ex-husband-because-she-had-an-abortion/

Arguments Defending Abortion Contain Same Flaws as Arguments Defending Slavery
