Arizona vs. New York

My heart is saddened greatly by the news this past weekend regarding the killing of six individuals and the wounding of several others while Democratic Representative Gabrielle Giffords was holding a "Congress on the corner" event.  Among those dead is nine year old girl.  I can' even start to imagine the pain. Everyone, I mean everyone, is weighing in on the subject. And rightly so.  This act is senseless, ridiculous, and stupid.

But there was another story this past weekend that caught my attention.  It involves murders.  But these murders are done to unimportant, nameless, faceless humans that obviously dont matter nearly as much as a politician.  Yes, I am speaking about the taboo subject of abortion.  41% of all pregnancies in NY end in abortion. Nearly 60% of all black women abort their pregnancies in NY.  That is roughy about 130,000 abortions a year.  That is staggering.  That number is so, so sad.  But very few will say anything regarding this news story, We turn our heads and proclaim that women's rights are more important.

In my opinion, the leftist agenda of providing condoms and education has failed.  So has the church.
