Justice for the almost 60,000,00 babies butchered since Roe v Wade in 1973 will never happen on this earth. The carnage will continue until the day abortion either stops or Our Savior Jesus Christ returns in glory. How anyone can wave the banner of abortion and cheer for obvious evil and ignorance of justice is something I cannot fathom.

Calling this justice is an abomination.

The quote of mine you quoted was addressing the justice system. If you feel it is an abomination, you may be correct. But I would again say that it is the best one I can see from here.

If it wasn't for these folks doing this investigative reporting, the state would not be looking into Planned Murderhood.

I find it interesting people whine and cry that there is no investigative reporting done nowadays and then when it is done, people turn on the people that do it. Is that not a double standard and hypocritical?

This whole turn of events has me :headscratch .

In Texas, there was no scrutiny before these videos? I find that hard to believe. We are better than that, IMO. And we have been all over PP for years and years. Both in Texas and nationally.

If a person is complaining about not enough investigative reporting and then ripping it apart, there is a percentage of the complainers that are being hypocritical. But in and of itself, wanting something and wanting something done well doesn't make a person a hypocrite.

It has not hurt the anti-abortion movement. The pro-life cause is strengthening. The arguments for killing the innocents in the womb is growing weaker each day as the TRUTH is exposed for what abortion really is. Look at the fight that took place in congress in the effort to defund PP. It once again brought to light the true colors of the legislators who are only conservative when they want our votes. The fight also once again put the spotlight on the babykillers who support PP at all costs.

The Great State of Texas pulled PP funding.

Pray to God that this abomination in Harris County is squashed and that the LARGEST abortion mill in Texas - in Houston, closes and that thousands of babies are saved from certain death.

Heard Andrew Wilkow make a good point on the radio while I was on my way to lunch. They used the same tactics the animal rights advocates use. The only time the animal rights advocates get prosecuted is on trespassing charges...which don't apply in this case.

He also pointed out the apoplectic fits into which the left would fly at the sight of videos depicting a needle puncturing the brain of a baby animal and killing it in the womb.

Furthermore, both he and the Tennessee Congresswoman he had on as guest pointed out that PP is not being prosecuted and there is plenty of evidence that they violated the law by performing procedures that were medically unnecessary and were used only to preserve body parts....which is illegal.

But then it's been pretty clear this past decade or two that the law doesn't apply to those on the left.

:confused5

Your state, or at least one not insignificant agent of it, just gave the pro-abortion side several months worth of propaganda headlines that will be thrown in your face for years to come, regardless of how the legal proceedings ultimately play out. I'm not sure how this constitutes "putting up a fight".

Also, what exactly was a farce about the videos? I am not aware of any other similar investigative endeavor that has been as open and transparent as this one. Every minute of every video was released. NBC/CBS/ABC does not do that.

Am I misreading your post?

I'm not going to play this game with you. Nothing you've said or will say is going to change my mind and I am sure that goes for you as well.

One Houston talk show had someone on who seemed to know about the charges. Near as I can tell one of the charges is for attempting to purchase organs, the other is for having fake California Drivers licenses, which I guess were used to create the false identity.

I guess the district attorney in Houston is next going to go after everyone in Houston's 19 and 20 year old children.

I suspect the law is written that you cannot purchase human organs. Thus they are saying an organ of a fetus is human. If a fetus is human, then killing a fetus would then be murder, if I am following their logic.

So it's illegal to try to buy baby parts but it's not illegal to turn a baby into parts? What an absolute shame.

The Harris Count District Attorney is, like every other distrct attorney in the State of Texas, an elected official. They are elected by the voters in the county in which they serve.
