California Assisted Suicide Bill Dies, Democrats Can’t Find Enough Votes in Assembly
In a huge victory for pro-life advocates in California, the bill the state Senate passed to make the state the next to legalize assisted suicide has died. SB 128 is reportedly off the table for the rest of the year after Democrats had trouble finding enough votes in a state Assembly committee to move the bill ahead.

Clinic Worker Thought Nothing of Aborting Babies Until She Saw This. “My God What are You Doing?”

Woman Sees Her Late Grandmother’s Face in Her Baby’s Ultrasound
In June, Debbie King went in for her 20-week ultrasound of her unborn daughter and noticed that she looks exactly like her late grandmother. She explained, “The scan was on the side of my fridge and I didn’t pay much attention because I just thought all of the scans looked the same. It wasn’t until my friend said she could see a face that I looked at it properly."

Woman’s Demand of $1 Million or She Would Abort Her 7-Week-Old Unborn Baby Exposed as a Hoax
A supposed demand by a woman on an anonymous web site who wanted pro-life people to give her $1 million to stop her from aborting her 7-week-old unborn baby turned out to be a hoax. As LifeNews originally reported last week, the web site in question is registered to a person living in Japan who cybersquats domains in an effort to build traffic and sell them at a higher price.

Suicide and Assisted Suicide: Why Did We Mourn Robin Williams But Celebrate Brittany Maynard?
I don’t remember what I wished for as I was turning 12, though if I had to guess I would wager power ranger action figures were on the top of the list. It’s quite possible I even received them, and if life went on as normal for a 12 year old girl, that would be the end of the memory.

“Choice” Isn’t the Reason Pregnant Women Consider an Abortion, This Is
The U.K.’s Alliance of Pro-Life Students (APS) released an eye-opening perspective piece written by a pregnancy center volunteer who has interacted with hundreds of women seeking abortions. Her experience shatters common perceptions painted by the abortion movement, which suggest that virtually all women who undergo abortions do so as an exercise of their own free will and rights.
