OperationRescue has filed a formal complaint against abortionist LeRoy Carhart.

“Operation Rescue has sent a formal letter to Maryland Attorney General’s office and Montgomery County State Attorney’s office requesting that Second Degree Murder charges be brought against late-term abortionist LeRoy Carhart for his part in the death of a patient on February 7, 2013.

Troy Newman, president of Operation Rescue, asked in his February 24 letter that the charges be brought under the state’s “depraved heart murder” doctrine that allows for second degree murder charges when a person engages in conduct that shows a reckless disregard for human life, even if resulting harm is unintentional.

Legal precedence for such a charge is abundant.”

This one is a very sad and troubling story about a man named Robert Saylor, a 26-year-old man who had Down Syndrome. It appears he was killed by 3 off-duty police deputies working security after staying in his seat when the movie ended. He wanted to stay for another showing.

From LifeNews

“Robert Saylor was a 26-year-old man who had Down syndrome. He went to see a movie in Frederick, Maryland with a health aide. After the movie was over, he wanted to see it again, so he remained in the movie theater. When employees were unable to get him to leave, three police deputies were called, who were working off-duty as security guards that night.

What happened next is horrifying. Saylor was asphyxiated during the arrest, after being placed face-down on the ground, and died.”

“This was a man who clearly had a disability. But no one in this case – not the theater employees or the police deputies – showed even an ounce of understanding, empathy, or compassion towards him. No one apparently thought of getting his health aide or his parents to help. They completely failed to recognize that this was someone who had special needs, and that this wasn’t their typical situation which might require an arrest or use of force.”

And this last one is encouraging, but they’ll get a fight from those taking the abortion dollars. But it’s way past time to expose the ties between these groups, how they get their money, and who the elected officials steering it to them are. Maybe digging into this will help do that.

From LifeSiteNews

“Dozens of legislators in the House and Senate have called on a federal government watchdog agency to investigate how much taxpayer money Planned Parenthood receives each year and how those funds are being used.

The letter asks for information on all affiliates of the Planned Parenthood Federation of America, International Planned Parenthood Federation, the Population Council, the Guttmacher Institute, Advocates for Youth, and the Sexuality Information and Education Council of the United States (SIECUS).”

“The effort is being led by Reps. Diane Black of Tennessee and Pete Olson of Texas, as well as U.S. Sen. David Vitter of Louisiana. But scores of Congressmen and five U.S. Senators signed the letter asking the Government Accountability Office (GAO) for a comprehensive list of grants being made to the abortion giant, the programs that authorize those monies, the kinds of programs offered, and the number of people served in each category.”
