Each year, 70,000 women worldwide die from unsafe abortion. Sad. More than 40 million babies are killed annually by abortion. TRAGIC.
Federal marshals will protect abortion providers in the wake of the shooting death of an abortion doc Sunday. 8 abortion providers have been killed in the U.S. since 1977. 45 million babies have been killed in abortions in the U.S. since 1977.
I finally got around to changing my party affiliation with the Board of Elections. I am officially “unaffiliated.” When I registered to vote, I checked “Republican,” because that’s what evangelical Christians do, right? I’m pro-life, pro-gun, pro-military, pro-death penalty. But over the past few years, I’ve realized that I don’t really fit all that well into the standard-issue Republican box. I support universal health care, protecting the environment, paying a living wage, anti-poverty programs, fighting racism, and a path to citizenship for immigrants. Those are more in line with what Democrats support. So I’m not really a Republican or a Democrat. I’m a complicated independent. And now my voter registration card will reflect that.
I did Life Chain today with my mom and people from her church. Saw Joe. Heard that Joel was there, too. Lots of positive reactions from motorists. Honks, waves, shout-outs. A few negatives ones, as well. Thumbs down, yelling, one dude who yelled “F— you!” right when he passed my mom. Wow. God bless him. For real.

There’s more to being pro-life than just opposing abortion. There are 50 million* orphaned children in the world. But there are 2.1 billion Christians. And we have a responsibility to those children.
Sick.

“Although black women constitute only 6% of the population, they comprise 36% of the abortion industry’s clientele. The leading abortion providers have chosen to exploit blacks by locating 94% of their abortuaries in urban neighborhoods with high black populations.”

Roland Martin, “What Would Jesus Do,” on CNN.com:
“When did it come to the point that being a Christian meant caring about only two issues, abortion and homosexuality?…”
“…Poverty? Whatever. Homelessness? An afterthought. A widening gap between the have and have-nots? Immaterial. Divorce? The divorce rate of Christians mirrors the national average, so that’s no big deal….”
Riding down the street with Momma:
“I find that billboard to be ironic:
‘Premature birth kills. Give all babies nine months.’
Premature birth does kill. It’s called abortion.”
Tell it, Momma.
