With ‘Abortion Provider Appreciation Day,’ Democrats Openly Celebrate Executioners

Hangmen were once shunned. It was believed that executions could sometimes be right, just and necessary for maintaining law and order. But those who committed death in cold blood were nevertheless a part of human history. considered unsavory. We are still shocked that Texas Governor. Greg Abbott declared Executioner Appreciation Days.

Wait, my mistake. That was Illinois Gov. J. B. Pritzker declaring An Abortion Provider Appreciation Day. Pritzker was enthusiastic in his praises of abortionists’ “courage, compassion, and dedication to their work.” He spoke out about how important abortion is and how great it is that Illinois has become a destination for abortion tourism.

This is safe, legal, rare.

Although the famous Clinton formulation was not truthful (Bill Clinton supported late-term abortions that were most horrendous), it was politically powerful. It appealed to voters who regarded elective abortion with the sort of attitude their ancestors held toward the man in the black hood and his work — as an undesirable but sometimes necessary evil. Although they might have wanted to allow abortion, they believed it was a bad thing and wanted it to be rare and out of sight. Although they were not very consistent or principled, they were really discomfited at abortion and recoiled at being suggested to be pro-abortion.

However, abortionists who celebrate them are indefatigably pro-abortion. The leaders of both the Democrat Party and its activist base are now unabashed supporters of abortion. Bill Clinton’s (rhetorical?) moderation regarding the subject is long gone. His successors hail abortionists as heroes and promote abortion as an important good.

Naturally, there are many other things. Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization Decision overturned Roe v. Wade Democrat politicians are now urging abortion support, but they have not changed their stance on the topic. “safe, legal, and rare” Rejoicing over the achievements of abortionists is something to be proud about.

The years that have passed since then are a clear reason for this shift. Roe It was decided that the major political parties would become more ideologically unified internally. The majority of pro-life Democratic politicians, Joe Biden being one of them, are now almost extinct. Moderate Democratic voters might find celebrating abortion gross, but they don’t feel disgusted enough yet to take action.

Establishing Equality

This increased political polarization demonstrates how elective abortion can affect a whole worldview and way to live. As Erika Bachiochi This explainsAbortion is often seen as a way to correct the imbalance of human sexual reproduction. The technological solution to the injustice of nature is offered by abortion. Women will be exposed to far greater risks in sex without abortion. This can have a variety of economic, social, and physical consequences. This is why abortion advocates believe that without abortion, women cannot be sexually and economically — and therefore socially and politically — equal to men.

This perceived solution to nature’s injustice and inequalities is unjustified and unfair. The age of ultrasound means that we cannot lie to ourselves about the life-ending abortions. We all have seen tiny fingers and the pulse of the heartbeats. It is wrong to end these human beings in their development.

Equal rights are not achieved by killing the unborn. Instead, it reinforces the assumption that women are inferior men who must conform to a male model for sexuality and reproduction. Women are given the gift of abortion “equality” Through the violent suppression of their natural and healthy fertility. It demands that they do this in order to fit in market and public spaces that consider maleness normative. Abortion is a violent solution to the problems that abortion seems to solve.

No Repentance

The challenges to abortion call into question everything, from our sexual culture and economic order. And it will often feel personal — because it is personal. Individuals and societies find it difficult to admit that their way is not right. Recognizing that abortion is wrong can be a sign of deep personal guilt for many.

Reconciliation is not easy. However, refusing to repent leads to further evil and we attempt to justify our wrongdoing. This is why so many people look for excuses to justify the bad things they have done or to accuse others. With the enormity and guilt of abortion complicity, many people are tempted to double-down rather than admit their mistakes. They would rather celebrate abortion than admit any wrongdoing.

These are the reasons abortion activists want abortions to be the only option available for women experiencing unexpected pregnancies. Democrats have not done anything to stop the escalating violence against pro-lifers helping mothers and their families. Pro-lifers donate diapers to babies in need, while abortion activists donate funds for abortion. They harass and firebomb pregnancy resource centers that provide those diapers.

Pritzker celebrated his abortion celebration one day later. declared It “an honor to attend mass at Old St. Pat’s this morning for this time-honored tradition.” To him, the church was just another photo op to serve his ambitions. The governor is an extremely wealthy and powerful man. However, he would be wise not to forget that neither his political machine nor his wealth will serve him. He will be as powerless before God as the tiny innocents whose deaths and cheers he encouraged.
