Obama Admin Admits China’s One-Child Policy Ups Sex Trafficking, Won’t Condemn ItThe US State Department this past week released its yearly, “Trafficking in Persons Report.” China received an automatic downgrade to the lowest ranking, Tier 3, for being a destination country for sex-trafficking.
The State Department acknowledged the one-child policy as the “key source of demand” for sex-trafficking and forced prostitution within the country, but remained silent regarding the abolition of the harmful policy in its list of policy recommendations for China.http://www.lifenews.com/2013/06/23/obama-admin-admits-chinas-one-child-policy-ups-sex-trafficking-wont-condemn-it/
Despite New Baby, Kanye West Promotes Abortion in New Album YeezusWell, it finally happened: rapper Kanye West and professional famehound Kim Kardashian had their baby, a girl, this weekend. Unfortunately for the “happy” couple, though, the birth was marred by an ill-timed leaking of a single off Kanye West’s newest album, Yeezus. (The title is a mix of Kanye’s nickname, Ye, and Jesus. Get it?)
Just before Kim gave birth to his child, the song “Blood on the Leaves” hit the internet, and considering that this song is basically an ode to abortion, the leak was ill-timed indeed. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/06/22/despite-new-baby-kanye-west-promotes-abortion-in-new-album-yeezus/


Who’s War on Women? Gosnell and China Hurt Woman Via AbortionGosnell never happened. There never was a trial inPhiladelphia. Testimony was never received in a public courtroom that “this one is big enough to walk me to the bus.” We never heard that it was “raining blood” in that human abattoir, that late-term abortion facility.
There were never babies born alive, screaming as they were thrown into a toilet. There were never children who survived and who were stabbed in the neck and whose spinal cords were snip-snipped by Kermit Gosnell. None of this ever occurred. Those rows of “reserved” seats—so denoted for the national media—remained empty for weeks. Don’t look. Don’t report. If you ignore it, it all goes away.http://www.lifenews.com/2013/06/22/whos-war-on-women-gosnell-and-china-hurt-woman-via-abortion/
Scientists May Grow Human Organs in Animals Within One Year A story in the Telegraph claims that Japanese scientists may soon grow human organs in animals–made from human stem cells–for later use in transplant surgery. I am dubious.
From the story: A panel of scientists and legal experts appointed by the government has drawn up a recommendation that will form the basis of new guidelines for Japan’s world-leading embryonic research. There is widespread support in Japan for research that has raised red flags in other countries. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/06/22/scientists-may-grow-human-organs-in-animals-within-one-year/


Poll: Irish Want Free Vote, Referendum on Abortion Not Government BillAn opinion poll carried out by Amárach Research on behalf of the Life Institute and Family and Life shows that the vast majority of Irish voters believe Taoiseach Enda Kenny is wrong to try to force pro-life TDs and Senators to vote for his abortion legislation.
It also shows that 86 per cent of voters would prefer to see the abortion issue resolved by popular referendum than by the politicians in Leinster House. A similar proportion believe that if legislators are to decide the issue they should be allowed a free vote.http://www.lifenews.com/2013/06/22/poll-irish-want-free-vote-referendum-on-abortion-not-government-bill/
Canadian Abortion Activist: “Naïve Reporters” Should Shut Out Pro-LifersJoyce Arthur, executive director of the Abortion Rights Coalition of Canada, recently blasted media outlets for being too “balanced” in their coverage of Dr. Henry Morgentaler’s death by interviewing pro-life Canadians.
The pro-life perspective “is an extremist view,” not deserving of “legitimacy” and “does not deserve equal time or respect in Canada” railed Arthur in a recent Rabble.ca piece. According to Arthur, “naïve reporters” should not be interested in the pro-life expression of “concern for women’s well-being,” or the perspective that all human beings, including those at earlier stages of development, deserve human rights.http://www.lifenews.com/2013/06/22/canadian-abortion-activist-naive-reporters-should-shut-out-pro-lifers/

Michigan Cmte OKs Bill to Help Stop Secret Abortions on Teen GirlsOn June 18, the Michigan Senate Judiciary Committee approved, by a 3-1 vote, legislation designed to prevent minors seeking abortion without parental consent from “judge shopping.”
Minor girls who have been denied a judicial bypass at one court would not be permitted to seek a bypass at another county court. S.B. 254 also creates guidelines for judges in making a determination regarding the maturity of the girl seeking an abortion, and her best interests. These guidelines are consistent with the line of questioning recommended by the Michigan Benchbook, and include taking into consideration whether the minor girl’s parents have neglected or abused her. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/06/22/michigan-cmte-oks-bill-to-help-stop-secret-abortions-on-teen-girls/

Web Site Behind Ads With Pregnant Teen Boys Promotes AbortionIf you live in Chicago, or anywhere else with a news channel, it’s likely you’ve seen one of these ads depicting pregnant teenage boys. The Chicago Department of Health followed Milwaukee’s lead by plastering them on billboards and buses across the city in an attempt to lower their teen pregnancy rate, which is reportedly 1.5 times higher than the national average. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/06/22/web-site-behind-ads-with-pregnant-teen-boys-promotes-abortion/
Louisiana Gov.

Kansas Planned Parenthood Sues to Deny Women Informed Consent on AbortionIn a desperate move to appease its base–in the wake of increased pro-life laws that reflect the will of the people but jeopardize the bottom line of abortion businesses–Planned Parenthood has sued section 14 of the Kansas 2013 Pro-Life Protections Act, claiming it violates first and fourteenth amendment rights to free speech and abortion access. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/06/21/kansas-planned-parenthood-sues-to-deny-women-informed-consent-on-abortion/
