One of the positive things about people like Ilhan Omar and her unfiltered opinions is that it is so revealing of the left's mindset. Like Omar, State Representative John Rogers (D-AL) expressed an unfiltered opinion on abortion, which I assume is not a rare view on the pro-abortion left.
During a debate this week on Alabama's Human Life Protection Act, Rogers said this:
"Some kids are unwanted, so you kill them now or you kill them later. You bring them in the world unwanted, unloved, you send them to the electric chair. So, you kill them now or you kill them later."
What a disgusting comment about babies and their mothers. Is he really suggesting that unplanned babies will grow up to be murderers?
The facts clearly do not support Rep. Rogers' radical opinion. Last year, there were only 25 executions in the United States. Planned Parenthood performed more than 300,000 abortions last year.
At least convicted murderers get the benefit of a trial before they are put to death. Unborn babies in the womb aren't read their rights, much less get a hearing, before they are put to death. And that's what is wrong with abortion.
Roe v. Wade, like the infamous Dred Scott decision that legalized slavery, is based on the idea that some humans have no rights we are bound to respect.
At today's National Day of Prayer service, President Trump vowed to defend the sanctity of life, saying, "Every child -- born and unborn -- is a sacred gift from God." The president also announced that his administration was expanding conscience rights protections for healthcare professionals and institutions.
