The Tears of Lady Justice

-
In America, the concept of “equal justice under the law” is foundational to our system. In the vast majority of cultures and countries from the beginning of time, different standards of right and wrong applied to different classes. And while America’s system is far from perfect, it is lightyears better than most any other culture or country in the world today.
That being said, news broke today that has brought tears to the eyes of Lady Justice. From Fox News,
“Two anti-abortion activists who made undercover videos of themselves trying to buy fetal tissue from Planned Parenthood were charged with 15 felonies, California prosecutors announced Tuesday.”
You may remember when these videos were first published. America was shocked to see the severed limbs and lifeless organs of innocent unborn children being casually examined as if they were nothing more than products at a farmer’s market. There was a spark of outrage. But alas, it was only a spark, and it quickly fizzled out and went away. The bill that was proposed at the time to remove Planned Parenthood’s funding didn’t even get enough votes to be brought up for debate.
And not only that, the tables have been completely turned. The two individuals who exposed this atrocity are now being charged with felonies while the abortion mill that is Planned Parenthood is still getting money from your tax dollars.
A casual examination of the facts prove that the California prosecutors do not have a leg to stand on. While the people currently murdering innocent children and selling those children’s severed body parts walk free and get paid from your tax dollars, the two courageous individuals who exposed these barbaric practices are facing prosecution. This travesty of justice should make every American’s blood boil.
But more than that, it should prompt you to action. Our legislators work for us. There position on this issue should be of major concern to any American who loves freedom. Because, as has been stated before, without life, no other right matters.
It is our responsibility to elect and support individuals who value life and are willing to fight for it. It is also our responsibility to pressure our elected officials to do the right thing. An email, phone call, or signing a petition can have a tremendous impact, especially if people take the time to share with their friends and family the need to get involved.
You and I are the guardians of liberty. It’s time to stand up and make your voice heard.

Peace Through Strength - North Korea & Iran vs. America

The world benefits from a strong America. 3 American prisoners were being held in North Korea. Take a minute and let that sink in. Americans were being held against their will in hard labor prison camps. Now those 3 men are free. North Korea and South Korea are seeing tensions relaxing. While just a few months ago, the world collectively worried that North Korea was about to try and obliterate something off the map with nuclear weapons, we are now seeing the very real possibility that they will sit down and consider relinquishing those nuclear weapons. America has pulled out of the ill-advised Iran Nuclear Deal . Instead of allowing them to continue developing nuclear capabilities with “supervision”, the US will now reimpose strict sanctions against a country that is a state sponsor of terrorism around the world. As much as Trump would probably like to take credit for all these advancements, many, many people have been involved and working hard to make these things ha

Equality: Missing the Key Word

  What The American People Need to Know Equality, Marriage and  the Supreme Court America was watching as the Supreme Court heard oral arguments regarding the Obergefell vs. Hodges case on Tuesday. A case that could determine the fate of marriage in America. This may seem like a complicated subject on the surface, but I’ve broken it down into what I believe are the main three distinct areas of argument and attempted to give a simple answer to each. The three areas are: equality, the definition of marriage, and the court’s role vs. the people’s. So let’s jump into this - equality. Twitter has been abuzz with#equalityforall. But there is an inherent flaw with people’s understanding of the whole concept of equality. They are missing the key word. All men are created equal. Given certain rights by their Creator. And government’s purpose is (supposed to be) to protect those rights (see the Declara

Climate Change: The Death Knell for the GOP in 2016?

-
This week, the Pope visited President Obama at the White House. He gave a speech and addressed some very pressing issues facing both America and the world as a whole. In his speech he lent his support to President Obama’s regulatory program aimed at climate change. He avoiding spending much time on social issues (e.g. abortion, marriage) instead offering an endorsement of Obama’s policies on the environment. Pope Francis said, “I find it encouraging that you are proposing an initiative for reducing air pollution. Accepting the urgency, it seems clear to me also that climate change is a problem which can no longer be left to a future generation. When it comes to the care of our common home, we are living at a critical moment of history.” Yes, climate change. An issue that many are saying could end the Republican party’s hope for the presidency in 2016. A few of the candidates have received criticism for remarks on this subject at the last presidential debate
