Genocide in our backyard

WE talk about genocide in other countries, (but) we’d better look in our own backyard, regarding the terrible, cruel and disgusting abortion laws.

What a shame we bring on ourselves to let this happen in such an affluent and “lucky” country – lucky for whom?

Have we become mass murderers with no conscience?

The Government wants to attract migrants, yet on Medicare’s expense unborn babies get killed by the thousands.

No, not my money should be used for this cause, surely it is not a disease to be pregnant!

It’s a pity women don’t have a see-through womb, so they could see what they are dealing with. They may then have second thoughts.

If a woman is happy she is pregnant, it is called a “baby” from day one, and if not wanted it is a blob of tissue or another degrading name.

People talk about the death penalty. There are 100,000 babies a year on death row, and they are totally innocent.

We shouldn’t meddle in other countries where there are death penalties for drug smugglers or any other crimes until we clean up our own game.

Let us remember the unborn who should be safe in their mother’s womb, but it seems to be the most unsafe and dangerous place.

If this many babies drowned or died of SIDS or any other accidents, the whole country would be in uproar but with unborn babies it is like the three monkeys, “see nothing”, “hear nothing”, and “say nothing”.
