March For Life - Media Bias Blatant
With mainstream media already blatant in their choice of phrasing - "anti-abortion protesters" rather than calling it what it was - the March For Life - the mainstream media showed it's true colors again. From the Washington Post to the NY Times the mainstream media either ignored or under-reported the events of yesterday's March For Life - which for the past several years has been the largest peaceful yearly demonstration to take place in our nation's capitol, bar none. Now in it's 35th year, this year the March For Life had tens of thousands of peaceful demonstrators - many of them young people who are survivors of this dreadful holocaust of their generation, many of them who've come to this march over and over again. Every year it grows. And every year the numbers of abortions in the US dwindles just a little bit more. We're winning - and the abortion industry can't stand losing their profits - so they denigrate and twist things. But the life of the unborn child is NOT a religious issue - it's a fact - there is no denying the science of it now, like they could back in 1973 - and abortion isn't health care - it's a violation of every right that an unborn child has, up to and including the very right to life. The Right to Life is the 21st century's biggest civil right's issue - and we need to recognize that - or we will suffer for it. when are we, as a society, going to stop playing with the words. Plain and simple - abortion is the murder of an unborn person. Period. If we don't figure this out soon, we aren't going to have a future. We'll have slaughtered him before he takes his first breath.
