Since I just got my eye sight back from being blinded by the images of the Women's March (es) around the world last week, I'd like to post a few images of my Women's Rights campaign: The Right to Life.
I say, "respectfully march for what you believe in". I'm all for women's rights. Who isn't for "Equal pay for equal work" and "paid maternity leave", to name a couple? The biggest women's right issue SHOULD be the freaking right to life. How do feminists miss this? They skip to an adult woman when fighting for rights. At the Women's March I saw little girls holding up signs that read, " The next future president". And that's awesome...they certainly may be! But, during that one day of marching for women's rights, 2 babies were aborted in the United States, and one of those could of been the first woman president. Feminists say they want control over their bodies and the decisions pertaining to it, but what about the little baby girl or baby boy that didn't get a chance "to choose". WTF, man.
UNBORN BABIES ARE AN OPPRESSED GROUP THAT THE HUMAN RIGHTS MOVEMENT COMPLETELY IGNORES. They pick and choose which groups to defend, while ignoring the absolute most defenseless group of all.
If those same people that marched last week for "women's rights" could also fight for the baby girls (and boys) rights in the womb, then we could be more united. We could move forward with reproductive healthcare and education, prenatal care, and allocate more resources towards family planning and adoption on a united front. I would have been more inclined to march with those women last week if they didn't disregard an entire population of people that never got a choice in any matter. Their futures were decided for them. Did anyone as a kid want their parents to choose their future for them? Go to this school, marry this person, choose this job. No. But the mothers of these unborn babies did just that. Except they said, "Your life will be cut short. You won't even get the chance to march in a Women's Rights parade". Or gay rights parade. Or a "black lives matter" march. Nobody wants their future chosen for them.
PALM TO FOREHEAD. It's not a Christianity thing. It's shouldn't be a right-wing thing. It should be a humanity issue; The right to live and then to make your own decisions, thereafter.
In 2014, Alveda King, the niece of Martin Luther King Jr., addressed abortion and racism. King said, “Right now in America almost half of our babies are being killed in the womb, and in certain parts of America more of our babies are being aborted than being born. While we were marching in the sixties, a place was being prepared for us at Planned Parenthood. We were trying to get off the back of the bus, and they were going to have a space for us in the front of the abortion mill.”
WE SHOULD PROTECT ALL HUMAN LIFE:
the UNBORN
the IMPRISONED
the IMMIGRANT
the REFUGEE
the DISABLED
It's way too simple. Choose life.
(there are so many more arguments, facts, and statistics that I don't have time to get into on a blog)
