There are stories out there which , even for a hard news junky, are so disturbing that it is hard to read them let alone deal with the details. This is one such story.
Thanks to Pepperhawk for bringing up this one that has largely managed to be buried. The magnitude of this evil nature; had it been related to a conservative issue, would be front page, screamed from the mountaintops, and the topic of every talking point. Apparently this story just did not command that much attention from the Left. You know why.
And Dave, in his usual political savvy, pointed out the difference in the way Leftists like Peta treat their issues, with their lack of outrage on this matter.
This is from the current report from the NYT, though the Gosnell story broke in 2011. It has been serenaded by crickets by the left ever since. Maybe they were holding their breath, through two Abortion Anniversary celebrations, hoping it would die off.
Would they give this trial the same attention they give high-profile murder stories? I doubt that. It was on A17 in the hard copy.

Abortion Doctor’s Murder Trial Opens
By JON HURDLE – NYT
Published: March 18, 2013
(Excerpts from NYT)
PHILADELPHIA — In opening statements in court on Monday, prosecutors charged that a doctor who operated a women’s health clinic here killed seven viable fetuses by plunging scissors into their necks and “snipping” their spinal cords and was also responsible for the death of a pregnant woman in his care.
More than two years after he was arrested and the clinic was shut down, and 14 months after a grand jury report described the charges against him, Dr. Gosnell appeared in Common Pleas Court on Monday to face a trial that could result in the death penalty if he is found guilty.
His lawyer, Jack J. McMahon, described Dr. Gosnell as dedicated to treating the poor and accused prosecutors of racism — “a prosecutorial lynching” of his client, who is black.
“It’s an elitist, racist prosecution,” Mr. McMahon said. “This black man is being taken because of who he is and where he works.”
One of the prosecutors, Joanne Pescatore, an assistant district attorney, told the court that Dr. Gosnell routinely performed illegal late-term abortions, killing the seven fetuses in operations that would have caused the infants pain.
“If the baby is alive and you don’t want it to be, that doesn’t mean you have the right to take a pair of scissors and plunge it into the baby’s neck,” Ms. Pescatore told the jury during opening arguments of a trial that is expected to continue for four to six weeks.
/….
I wanted to call special attention to this paragraph
… Mr. McMahon said his client had passed up lucrative positions in obstetrics and gynaecology so that he could provide an essential service in West Philadelphia, where he performed more than 16,000 abortions over 31 years.

Those words are apropos: provided an ”essential service in West Philadelphia “. It doesn’t take a brain to read that correctly. And this guy is claiming racism is driving the charges and prosecution against him.
So I guess that justifies puncturing and snipping the spinal chords of babies with scissors, and keeping souvenirs like babies’ feet in jars. I can see where racism fits here. The details that are bound to come out in this trial — aside from frequent chants of “racism” — ought to send anyone running for the toilet. And these are only the ones he is charged with in a lucrative business spanning decades.
Incidentally, any Pa state inspections were set aside under Governor Tom Ridge, because they might potentially discourage some abortions. The question raised by many people is should the state of Pa also be held responsible?
So the libs scream against “torture” by waterboarding, yet are mum on snipping spinal chords of babies even in late-term. Where’s the outrage? Unfortunate for the babies that never had “due process” or a chance to plead in court.

Once I had a disagreement on TH long ago with a woman who said that “thing” in her womb was not a baby. I asked her, “then what is it that’s in your womb, a tadpole, a baby rabbit, etc. She never could answer me. That one really got her shut down.

I guess we should expect that. A whole lot of things will be blamed before he accepts an ounce, a milligram, an atom of blame.
Yea, sounds like she caught herself in a trap of her own making. That is the other problem, the severe denial about the whole issue. How on earth could they paint it into something they are so proud of, they need to protect more than life itself? It should frustrate them. Probably the first time that woman honestly thouught about it. I guess that is why they have to redefine words and terms all the time. 🙂

This is some real sick ass shit and the Traitor Party says mum is the word. It’s stories like this that make me long for the days of public lynching! This lowest form of life should be tortured until he passes out. Wake his ass back up and then torture some more. Continue until he has just enough life left in him so a public lynching would finish him off. And this has zero to do with racism. He’s scum, a child murderer and the color of his skin matters not to me. He doesn’t even deserve a court trial…no rights at all. Black, white, purple, green…etc…I could care less. When a supposed human is this despicable I will call for the exact same punishment without regard to the color of their skin. And I have no problem being the one carrying out the sentence….

And blood shoots from my eyeballs too about this and how this abortion is defined by the Alinsky party. Babies mean nothing to them. They have no sense of morality and no compassion for the most innocent and vulnerable.
I really have a hard time figuring out how they live with themselves and come to the conclusion they are sociopaths who need to be put down.

Bull, here is an excerpt from a filmmaker, Jason Jones is president of Movie to Movement, which was created to promote a culture of “life, love and beauty” through production of its own films as well as sharing others. : An Open Letter to Bishop Howard J. Hubbard of Albany
“Today, we face a similar scandal of a Catholic political leader who rejects the human dignity of a politically powerless minority: unborn children of every race. Governor Andrew Cuomo, as the New York Times reports, proposes to repeal any protection granted third-trimester fetuses in New York. His “reform” is supported by a wide array of public figures and powerful institutions, including the organizations that perform many of the abortions in your own diocese. The New York Times article notes that Cuomo is “bucking a trend in which states have been seeking to restrict abortion,” balancing the fight with “legislation that would guarantee women in New York the right to late-term abortions….” Through his bully pulpit, Governor Cuomo is spreading a falsehood every bit as toxic as the racism once shouted through bullhorns in 1962 New Orleans.”
And in doing so, Cuomo is positioning himself to promote these ideas across the nation. The Washington Post calls Cuomo’s legislation a move with “big implications for Cuomo’s political future” when considered “in the context of his potential presidential ambitions.” In other words, a self-proclaimed Catholic in your diocese stands on the verge of becoming a national champion of policies utterly incompatible with Christian values. And you, Bishop Hubbard, are in the happy position of being able to do something about it.
As Cardinal Bergoglio, now Pope Francis, stated in 2007, “we should be conscious that people cannot receive holy communion and at the same time act or speak against the commandments,” particularly “when abortions, euthanasia, and other serious crimes against life and family are facilitated.” He said that “this responsibility applies particularly to legislators, governors, and health professionals.”

The sad part of this is that these so called Catholics like Cuomo, Pelosi, and others take Communion at the Catholic church while at the same time, approving of the worst abortion methods.
The Church should have the bravery to excommunicate these people under the Church’s doctrine of “abortion is murder”. The new Pope Francis stated that abortion is still murder in the Catholic doctrine. But some of these bishops and cardinals will do nothing about these self proclaimed Catholic politicians who act as if they are real Catholics while supporting abortion on demand, even in the 3rd trimester.

And that’s the other thing, they aren’t the slightest bit ashamed of their politics.
But we know it is worse yet. Its not like they just ignore life and go along with abortion kicking. They also use it in politics to get votes, to raise money, rally support, and to further their political career. I can’t count all the ways they extort the bloody issue. A comparison could be made between their professional extortion and this “Dr’s” on abortion.

And I wonder how any doctor who takes the oath to do everything to provide help to live can live with themselves. That is why I think they are some of the worst sociopaths we have.

That is so beautiful it takes one’s breath away.
Whenever I think about someone aborting a baby, I recall holding my granddaughter, Anastasia, minutes after she was born. I looked into her eyes and felt as though I were looking into the eyes of God, his gift of life. I started to cry because it was a beautiful feeling. She and I are to this day very bonded.
And at that moment looking into those beautiful eyes, I had the passing thought, “how could someone murder such a wondrous birth of a child?”
To this day whenever there is something written about abortion, that experience with my granddaughter and the feeling of God’s presence comes right back to me.

Their ugly arguments about “that thing” being in the womb is becoming a harder one to fool people with the new technology 4D sonograms that can now show “that thing” in the womb is actually a baby and I think this can be determined at 6 wks now.
But, of course none of these people with any moral compass or compassion will even look at these sonograms as they wish to remain in denial of what that “thing” really is. In fact, they know very well what that “thing” is but choose to murder it anyway.
You’re so right that the libs are so against the death penalty for the worst criminals among us, but completely no compassion for the most vulnerable. I wish someone would have the balls to ask them outright why they value a murder’s life more than a child’s. I’d like to hear those answers if any were given.
