6th Circuit Blocks Louisville, Kentucky Buffer Zone Ordinance
“Sisters for Life, several individuals, and another pro-life organization wish to offer leaflets and compassionate, if sometimes unwelcome, speech to women entering abortion clinics in Louisville, Kentucky….But Louisville-Jefferson County limited their speaking and pamphleteering in buffer zones near the entrance of each clinic. Because these limits likely violate the First Amendment… we preliminarily enjoin them.”
Kentucky Right to Life Executive Director Addia Wuchner responded joyfully in a press release:
"Judge Jeffrey Sutton and the Court recognized the critical elements of the practice of ‘sidewalk counseling’— the quiet, compassionate, non-threatening, one-on-one conversations where dedicated sidewalk counselors reach out to convince EMW’s patients that there are life-saving alternatives to abortion. The practice of sidewalk counseling has always been to come alongside and accompany the woman in whatever way she may need."
The case now returns to the Western District of Kentucky, but the ordinance will be rendered unenforceable while the case proceeds.

Canadian Government Funds Assisted Suicide Activity Book for Children
"The word ‘medical’ means the science of medicine, and ‘assistance’ means help. So MAiD means that medicine is used to help someone with their death. A doctor or nurse practitioner (a nurse with special training) uses medicines to stop the person’s body from working. When their body stops working, the person dies. This is done in a way that does not hurt the person. The medicines help them feel comfortable and peaceful. A person has to ask for MAiD and then go through a bunch of steps before it can happen. The steps are described below in this book."
The activity book can be viewed here.
Disturbingly, the book even justifies assisted suicide in cases where the person is not diagnosed with a terminal illness. Page five of the book linked above reads, "Other people might ask for MAiD if their illness or disability will not cause their body to die, but it causes too much pain or suffering for them to keep living with it, and there is no way to make the illness or disability get better or go away."
The book goes on to tell children that MAiD is a "personal choice" and that friends and family should not try and stop. In reality, it is an act by a medical professional to intentionally end the life of a vulnerable and suffering individual. Two recent stories exemplify this:
A Canadian veteran was offered assisted suicide by Canada's veterans department when she requested financial assistance for a stairlift.
A disabled Canadian man was approved for assisted suicide after he was no longer able to afford housing. He reconsidered his decision after the story went viral and generous individuals raised money for him.

Massachusetts Supreme Judicial Court Rules State Constitution Does Not Protect Assisted Suicide
“Our decision today does not diminish the critical nature of [assisted suicide] interests, but rather recognizes the limits of our Constitution, and the proper role of the judiciary in a functioning democracy. The desirability and practicality of physician-assisted suicide raises not only weighty philosophical questions about the nature of life and death, but also difficult technical questions about the regulation of the medical field. These questions are best left to the democratic process, where their resolution can be informed by robust public debate and thoughtful research by experts in the field.”
Gaziano further wrote, “To this day, courts regard suicide as a serious social ill that the State has a strong interest in preventing. Perhaps, for this reason, assisting another to commit suicide largely has been, and continues to be, regarded as a serious crime.”

University of Washington Settles Public Records Lawsuit, Agrees to Release Fetal Body Part Experimentation Documents
Center for Medical Progress President David Daleiden |
“State actors’ transparency and accountability under freedom of information laws is even more important in the realm of government-sponsored experiments on aborted human fetuses, where laws against infanticide and organ trafficking, the systemic exploitation of the vulnerable, and the irreversible life-or-death abortion decisions of new families are at stake. The Center for Medical Progress will continue to monitor and report on these issues to educate the public and advocate for more just and humane abortion and research policies.”
It is worth noting that UW's "Birth Defects Research Laboratory" at which these experiments occurred is funded by the Department of Health and Human Services through the National Institutes of Health.

Abortion Pill Reversal has Saved 4,000 Lives and Counting!
"Women should never be forced to continue with an abortion they no longer desire, and immediate care is now available in some hospitals. Women who present in an emergency department of these hospitals can now rely on the APR protocol to be immediately available to them. We also have a number of other healthcare systems working to also add their hospitals to our growing list of providers who agree that APR is an appropriate and effective treatment for those having regret after taking the first abortion pill."
