County Launches Probe Into Why Aborted Babies Were Burned for Electricity, “We’re Horrified”
The
government is famous for moving slowly and throwing up red tape as it
moves along. That was not at all the case these past 24 hours.
News broke that British Columbia was sending their aborted and miscarried babies, along with the rest of their medical waste, to a plant in Brooks, Oregon where they would be burned to generate electricity for the area’s residents. http://www.lifenews.com/2014/
Officials Outraged Plant Burning Aborted Babies for Electricity: “Ultimate Disrespect to Innocence”
Local officials in central Oregon are upset that an energy plant is
reportedly burning aborted babies from Canada to generate electricity.
Following a LifeNews report that received national attention, the Marion County Board of Commissioners issued a statement indicating it will temporarily halt all burning of “medical waste” while it investigates. Today the Marion County Board of Commissioners is holding an emergency meeting to determine how the Covanta Waste-to-Energy Facility was authorized to burn medicate “waste” that includes the remains of aborted babies. http://www.lifenews.com/2014/

Families Battle Back After Doctors Say Their Disabled Babies “Not Compatible With Life”
Once
again, a bereaved family is drawing attention to the failures of the
Irish government to provide proper health care and medical attention to
families
who discover that their unborn babies are suffering from life-limiting
conditions.
Once

families
who discover that their unborn babies are suffering from life-limiting
conditions.
This
diagnosis is devastating enough but for Derry woman Gemma Bradley, the
fact that there was so little assistance from medical professionals made
a bad situation much worse. Babies like Gemma’s daughter Lily Rose (who
was diagnosed with Trisomy 18, also known as Edwards’ Syndrome) need
specialised care and attention from the medical profession. http://www.lifenews.com/2014/
Shocking Gosnell Movie Preview Shows How He Kept Jars of Aborted Babies’ Feet
Abortion
is a gruesome act in and of itself but Kermit Gosnell’s abortion
techniques and shoddy abortion clinic conditions took disgusting to a
new level. One way in which this late-term abortionist horrified anyone
who learned of his actions was his proclivity for keeping “souvenirs” of
his abortions.

As
LifeNews reported extensively last year during the Gosnell trial, when
live babies were delivered, he stuck scissors in the back of the babies’
necks and severed the spinal cords, killing them. http://www.lifenews.com/2014/
Dad Films His Son Every Single Week for 11 Years, The Result is Astonishing
I just discovered the wonder of time-lapse videos. I recently saw my
first one on YouTube. It’s a popular video by Dutch filmmaker Frans
Hofmeester called “Portrait of Lotte.”
Hofmeester filmed his daughter Lotte every week from birth to 14 years old. The video shows Lotte going from a smiling toothless baby to a young girl with braces. http://www.lifenews.com/2014/

Obama Sends Pro-Abortion Delegation to Vatican to Canonize Popes
President
Barack Obama has had a history of problems with the Vatican – which one
time had to reject a potential ambassador over supporting abortion.
Now, the president is sending a pro-abortion delegation to the Vatican
for the canonization ceremonies for Pope John Paul XXIII and Pope John
Paul II this Sunday.
Obama has a lengthy pro-abortion record — going as far as saying he wanted God to “bless” the Planned Parenthood abortion business — while Pope Francis, the current leader of the Catholic Church, is staunchly pro-life, calling abortion an “unspeakable crime.” Now there’s this. http://www.lifenews.com/2014/

Abortion Activists Defend “Model” Who Would Have Abortion to Appear on Reality TV
As
you would expect from a woman so desperately in search of fame she
would threaten to abort her own baby to increase her opportunities for
celebrity, each day there is another twist in the utterly sad saga of
Josie Cunningham.
For readers who may
have missed our story Monday, here’s where the 23-year-old Cunningham
stood two days ago. She had told The Sunday Mirror newspaper that prior
to becoming pregnant (she is now 18-19 weeks along). http://www.lifenews.com/2014/As

Appleton traveled the country speaking out against abortion. http://www.lifenews.com/2014/
Mom Says Expect “Beauty in Imperfections” of Down Syndrome What I have learned in the last 3 years is what to really expect when having a child with Down Syndrome. http://www.lifenews.com/2014/
Shocking Video Shows Mom Pushing Baby’s Stroller Into Oncoming Rail Tracks
We in the pro-life movement often say abortion strollerproduces an
overall disregard for human life, and LifeNews has often chronicled
cases of infanticide where mothers or fathers have shown a callous lack
of care or concern for their infants. http://www.lifenews.com/2014/
Euthanasia for Laughs? Comedian Directs Film About Son Taking His Father to be Killed
So, now euthanasia is becoming a source for comedy. Joel David Moore is
about to direct a film about a son taking his father to be killed. http://www.lifenews.com/2014/
