Law in the Service of Life

Did You Know…?

Did you know that reversing Roe means the abortion issue will return to the States?

Fetal homicide is still a crime. Negligent homicide of an unborn child is still a crime. It's time that the principles of federalism and the democratic process apply to the violence of abortion as well. BDF's Dorinda Bordlee stated that "Abortion facilitates the sexual exploitation of women, coerced abortion, and the dismembering of human beings. Based on prior state laws, only the abortion provider would be subject to criminal penalties for profiting from the bodies of women and children."

As explained by BDF president and general counsel Nikolas T. Nikas, "If you want to see what a decision reversing will look like, then read the U.S. Supreme Court's 1997 decision in Washington v. Glucksberg, finding that physician assisted suicide is a matter for each state based on its 'unqualified interest in the preservation of human life.'"

Canada Has Euthanized Almost 100,000 People

Canada made a dark choice in 2016. Instead of investing in more care, support, and hope for people who are suffering, the Canadian government legalized assisted suicide through a program called Medical Assistance in Dying (MAID).

Now They Want You to Starve Yourself to Death

In a newly released paper in the prestigious journal Bioethics, three prominent bioethicists argue that when someone decides to commit suicide via self-starvation and dehydration — known in euthanasia movement parlance as “voluntary stop eating and drinking” (VSED) — doctors should be allowed to “terminally sedate” the person trying to die when necessary to prevent intractable suffering. Patients […] The post Now They Want You to Starve Yourself to Death appeared first on LifeNews.com. [...]

They Should Me “You Should Have Been Aborted” Because I Was Conceived in Rape

“You should have been aborted!” The Harvard student yelled this in my face while I was visiting the campus for a forum on abortion in the black community. It wasn’t the first time someone had said this to me, and it wouldn’t be the last.   I’ve been told this so many times throughout my life, I’ve lost […] The post They Should Me “You Should Have Been Aborted” Because I Was Conceived in Rape appeared first on LifeNews.com.

We are Fighting for The People of the Womb

We Can’t Stop Fighting for 67 Million Babies Killed in Abortions

My wife and I watched Sunday night’s National Memorial Day Concert on PBS. While this is a yearly tradition for us, this tribute to 250 years of military service struck home in an especially powerful way. All the tribute enactments were mesmerizing, but Jonathan Banks’s portrayal of the experience of service members during the 1941 attack on […] The post We Can’t Stop Fighting for 67 Million Babies Killed in Abortions appeared first on LifeNews.com.
