With New York celebrating the “freedom” to kill babies even at birth, we must realize that it is not a political issue.

Have we become so barbaric or deranged that we can hold demonstrations protesting the euthanizing of stray cats and then support politicians who support the euthanizing of human babies? When did this insanity begin?

I remember my Japanese grandmother saying that I was a year older than my birth date because the Japanese, like other non-barbaric cultures, counted life from the moment of conception.

Voting for one who has no moral conscience or authority in his life, who believes in taking the life of an unborn human being, is being partner to their crime.

Any politician who will not protect a baby, cannot be trusted to look out for your best interest.
