40 Days for Life Prayer Campaign Against Abortion Starts in 306 Cities Tomorrow
The next 40 Days for Life campaign starts tomorrow in 306 locations — with more than 20 brand-new cities on board for the first time to participate in the pro-life prayer campaign.

That number of cities is an astonishing growth from the early days of the campaign, when it began in Texas as a local event Shawn Carney and other pro-life activists headed.

Kermit Gosnell Writes Abortion Poem From Jail Defending His Grisly Abortions
As LifeNews reported yesterday, late-term abortion practitioner Kermit Gosnell defending his actions killing unborn children in abortions after viability and taking their lives moments after their purposeful delivery in gruesome infanticides.

But Gosnell did more than just defend himself from his jail cell. He also wrote a poem that explains his macabre actions in a way that defends his killings by saying he is saving the babies his is destroying from a supposed life of crime and poverty. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/09/24/kermit-gosnell-writes-abortion-poem-from-jail-defending-his-grisly-abortions/
Study: Planned Parenthood Health Services at Lowest Point Since 2006 While Tax $ Up 78%
The Planned Parenthood abortion business says it repeatedly: it’s about women’s health care not abortion. The abortion business will have much to explain following a new study released today by American Life League.
For years, conservatives and pro-life groups have fought public tax dollars going to Planned Parenthood because it is primarily an abortion business and the new study backs up that claim. The meta-study by American Life League shows that the total healthcare services delivered by Planned Parenthood have reached their lowest point since 2006, while taxpayer funding has increased 78 percent over the past six years. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/09/24/study-planned-parenthood-health-services-at-lowest-point-since-2006-while-tax-up-78/
Music Video Showing Daughter Surviving Abortion Gets 100,000 Views in 5 Days
The former leader singer of Kansas, whose amazing video for his new single tells the story of his adopted daughter’s birth and surviving an abortion, has gone viral.

Elefante released a music video for the song, “This Time,” which was inspired by his adopted daughter Sami’s birth. Posted to YouTube and announced on September 16th, the video quickly went viral, with more than 100,000 views in just the first five days. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/09/24/singers-music-video-shows-his-adopted-daughter-surviving-abortion-gets-10000-views-in-5-days/

Man Jailed for Tying Up His Girlfriend, Forcing Abortion Drugs Into Her Vagina
The pro-abortion group NARAL recently promoted #MenforChoice event to rally men behind its crusade for abortion on demand funded with taxpayer dollars.

Ahmed Raofi could become a spokesperson for the “Men for Abortion” event. He so desperately wanted his girlfriend to have an abortion that, when she said no, he tied her up with duct tape and shoved abortion pills inside her vagina.

Abortionist: Women are Always Going to “Need” Abortions Up to Birth
A recent interview with late-term abortionist Dr. Susan Robinson in The Hairpin casts some light on the controversial practice of third-trimester abortion. Even many pro-choice people have a hard time understanding why a woman would wait 30 weeks before having an abortion. You sometimes hear pro-choicers say that if there were fewer restrictions on earlier abortion, there would be no late-term abortions.
Not so, says Dr. Robinson: : http://www.lifenews.com/2013/09/23/abortionist-we-give-parents-of-aborted-babies-photos-to-remember-their-birth/

Abortion Advocate: People Only Get Rights When They Can Walk
Apparently you should have the right to live only if you also have the ability to walk.
In the fall of 2008, I debated a woman named Fofi on the “Colorado Decides” program. We were debating the pros and cons of the 2008 Colorado Personhood Amendment. As we were discussing when people receive legal protections, Fofi said: http://www.lifenews.com/2013/09/24/abortion-advocate-people-only-get-rights-when-they-can-walk/
Pro-Abortion Blogger: Make Hobby Lobby Obey HHS Mandate, It “Sells Cheap Crap to Glue Together”
Just when you think someone’s hit rock-bottom, she manages to dig a little deeper. Jezebel blogger Erin Gloria Ryan has really distinguished herself for making pro-aborts sound like churlish, ignorant juveniles, but in her latest outburst against those who don’t want compulsory contraception coverage, she’s somehow managed to sink the bar even lower. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/09/24/pro-abortion-blogger-make-hobby-lobby-obey-hhs-mandate-it-sells-cheap-crap-to-glue-together/

Dutch Euthanasia Deaths Double in 10 Years, Mentally Disabled and Psych Patients Targeted

St. Louis Officials Covering Up 22 Medical Emergencies at Planned Parenthood Abortion Clinics
The City of St. Louis, Missouri, has refused to release 911 records related to incidents at a Planned Parenthood abortion clinic in compliance with the state’s Sunshine Laws even though it has previously complied with similar open records requests. The St. Louis Planned Parenthood is the last remaining abortion clinic in Missouri. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/09/24/st-louis-officials-covering-up-22-medical-emergencies-at-planned-parenthood-abortion-clinics/

Tim’s Place: Serving Breakfast, Lunch and Hugs and Honoring People With Down Syndrome

After I Became Pro-Life, My Two Best Friends Ended Our Friendship
When I was 27, I became pro-life. I’ve written about it extensively, so I won’t rehash the story. A year later, I became Catholic. During that year, when I was blogging (via the ancient site known as MySpace) about my new pro-life stance and my faith, two of my best friends in the world – I’ll call them Dave and Nancy – decided not to be friends with me anymore. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/09/24/after-i-became-pro-life-my-two-best-friends-ended-our-friendship/
BBC Promoting Celebrity-Led Campaign to Push Legalizing Assisted Suicide
Euthanasia season has arrived and the pro-death lobby, aided by their cheerleader and press office, the BBC, are now gearing up for a campaign aimed at forcing the legalisation of assisted suicide through British Parliaments both north and south of Hadrian’s Wall. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/09/24/bbc-promoting-celebrity-led-campaign-to-push-legalizing-assisted-suicide/
Abortion: America’s Ultimate Crime Against Women
It’s a gruesome story that’s been in the news for almost a year now. Outrage was fanned the world over after four Indian men brutally raped and killed a woman during a bus ride in New Delhi. I was angry when I saw the reports, and you probably were, too. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/09/24/abortion-americas-ultimate-crime-against-women/
Does Terry McAuliffe Support Taxpayer Funding of Abortions Up to the Day of Birth?
Virginia gubernatorial candidate Terry McAuliffe was caught dodging a reporter’s question after inventing a false power he claimed he would have as governor to keep unlawful abortion clinics open. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/09/24/does-terry-mcauliffe-support-taxpayer-funding-of-abortions-up-to-the-day-of-birth/
Presumed Consent: Welsh Government Presumes You Want to Donate Your Organs
The small country of Wales found itself the center of attention this past July when it became the first country in the United Kingdom to adopt a “presumed consent” policy for organ donation. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/09/24/presumed-consent-welsh-government-presumes-you-want-to-donate-your-organs/
Adult Stem Cell Research Breakthrough Could Lead to Treatments for Parkinson’s, Diabetes
