Conjoined Twins Safely Separated, Almost Became Abortion Victims
Emmett and Owen Ezell were born last month in Dallas, Texas but they were very much unlike most sets of twins. They were are identical twins[1] joined in utero — a rare phenomenon that happens in as many as 1 in 200,000 births.
About half of such twins are stillborn, but Owen and Emmett survived not only the birthing process — their mother rejected abortion. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/08/30/conjoined-twins-safely-separated-almost-became-abortion-victims/
Chicago Public Schools Mandate Sex Ed Classes for Kindergarten Students
They are much, much too young to even be thinking about sex and sexual acts at their age are the worst form of pedophilia, but Chicago public schools think little boys and girls in kindergarten are ready for sex ed classes.
From a local report: Some people may think a five-year old is too young for sex education. Administrators with Chicago Public schools do not. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/08/30/chicago-public-schools-mandate-sex-ed-classes-for-kindergarten-students/
Iowa Medical Board Adopts Rules Banning Dangerous Webcam Abortions
The Iowa Board of Medicine voted 8-2 today to adopt a rule effectively ending webcam abortion in Iowa.
The webcam abortion practice started with the Planned Parenthood of the Heartland affiliate using it in Iowa, a rural state where the abortion business has a difficult time getting an abortion practitioner to each of its clinics. As a result, it set up a process by which the abortion practitioner only visits with the woman considering using the mifepristone abortion pill via a videoconference, as opposed to an in-person visit the FDA suggests. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/08/30/iowa-medical-board-adopts-rules-banning-dangerous-webcam-abortions/

Abortion Activist: You Don’t Need to be a Doctor to Rip Apart a Baby With a Vacuum
“Things are looking pretty bleak in the world of abortion care” with “[a] wave of states” having been “disturbingly successful at shutting down abortion providers by passing medically unnecessary restrictions on clinics,” abortion rights absolutist and Daily Beast contributor Amanda Marcotte lamented at the open of her August 29 Women in the World blog post.
But alas, there’s a bright ray of hope in the womb-like darkness, Marcotte found in her post tagged as a “call to arms” piece (see screen capture below page break): deep blue states like California working to liberalize abortion laws . http://www.lifenews.com/2013/08/30/abortion-activist-you-dont-need-to-be-a-doctor-to-rip-apart-a-baby-with-a-vacuum/

China: Wife Missing Who Lobbied Govt After Husband’s Forced Sterilization
ChinaAid learned on Aug. 26, 2013 that Chinese Christian Wang Xuebai had been out of contact for several days. It is believed that Wang was detained in connection with her appeals to the government on behalf of her husband.
Wang’s troubles began in 2009 when her husband, Li Defu was forced to undergo a vasectomy in the city of Shangqiu, Minquan, Henan Province.

Bro-Choice Men Prove Abortion is the Ultimate Exploitation of Women
Abortion advocates like to phrase the ongoing legal battles over abortion as a “war on women,” but is it really?
Most women don’t identify as pro-abortion. At least half of all American women, if not slightly more than half, are pro-life. Abortion is in no way an issue where all women walk in lockstep. And really, is it women who benefit most from abortion being free and legal on demand? Hardly. The people who have the most to gain from keeping abortion legal at all times are slimeball men. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/08/30/bro-choice-men-prove-abortion-is-the-ultimate-exploitation-of-women/

Under Obama Billions in Foreign Aid Has Gone to Groups that Support Abortion
Lawmakers in Washington are attempting to rebalance U.S. spending on foreign aid which has for years limited funding for maternal and child health and increased spending for groups promoting population reduction and abortion.
The U.S. budget for family planning and reproductive health has increased some 57% since 2006 when Democrats took control in Congress, yet funding for maternal and child health has increased just 16% overall and its funding has dropped 4% within U.S. Agency for Development (USAID). http://www.lifenews.com/2013/08/30/under-obama-billions-in-foreign-aid-has-gone-to-groups-that-support-abortion/
