No More Baby Parts

The psychopath that shot up the Colorado Springs Planned Parenthood is reported to have told police after his arrest, "No more baby parts." If this report is true, and that's a big if, his utterance is a Christmas miracle. It would be even more miraculous than the possiblility that the shooter didn't injure one person at this clinic.

Why miraculous? Because a deranged person using a gun at an abortion clinic is the best Black Friday value the activists could hope for. They all have their wish lists, and what they long for most is The Perfect Victim.

The Revelation of The Immaculate Victim allows the radical left to elevate and exalt the moral authority of the victim. This merely requires the victim belong to a protected class. But it also requires an assailant that checks off the boxes of patriarchy: White, male, Christian, hetero.

Someone shooting up an abortion clinic is my worst nightmare, and I anticipate each new revelation with dread. I'm still working out why. Perhaps a gunman loose in an abortion clinic represents the id that exists in my consciousness. Perhaps because a mass murder at a Planned Parenthood would allow abortion activists to portray people with the sincerest and most absolute pro-life ambitions, as deranged and unhinged.

Or, perhaps because this shooting rampage will lead to abortion activists and their allies attempting to reduce core freedoms like speech and self-defense. Indeed, Planned Parenthood Regional CEO Vicky Cowart said in a statement that "the continued attacks against abortion providers and patients... is creating a poisonous environment that breeds acts of violence."

Cowart is contending that pro-life rhetoric is causing violence. To which, I would contend that it is the abortion providers' business model itself which breeds acts of violence.

Nevertheless, when I heard the report that the shooter uttered the phrase, "no more baby parts," I shuddered. It reinforces Cowart's point, that it is the reporting of Planned Parenthood's sale of fetal tissue that caused someone to snap. Not the actual practice of selling fetal tissue. To the abortion activists, that question has been asked and answered, and the American people condone if not endorse the practice.

Perhaps, then, the dispositive statement of this madman will serve as a double-edged sword. If it cannot be dismissed as cartoonish lunacy, then it indicates a somewhat rational mind. The American public is once again going to hear about fetal tissue sales by the biggest abortion provider in the universe. Planned Parenthood wanted that issue to disappear, and it did. Now that practice, and the barbaric procedures we do for no medical reason are going to be up for debate, once again.

The abortion industrial complex should hope that this killer pleads insanity, or is found not competent to stand trial. What if, despite his horrific and unjustified acts, what if he gets a long, televised trial, and the defense is allowed to portray him as a person not without sensitivity and thoughtfulness? What then?

Then, the abortion industrial complex and their allies may regret their rush to label him a "domestic terrorist." The radical left loves to portray terrorists like Hamas and the Taliban as "just another man's freedom fighter." This is not a sentiment that I share, but judging from what I saw on Twitter, some do.

In the meantime, I would recommend Planned Parenthood make themselves a hard target. Security doors, ballistic glass, armed guards, panic rooms, and armed staff. Abortion should be safe, right?
