The Black Hand Side!

I CAN GET NO APPRECIATION!
By Dena Leichnitz, March 10, 2008

On March 10, 2008 poor-choicers celebrate the National Day of Appreciation for Abortion Providers. If there is a more absurd day of appreciation I don't know what it is. Speaking as the Regional Coordinator for Silent No More for Los Angeles, I find the whole idea utterly ridiculous and repulsive. Silent No More has 7,000 members, that is 7,000 men and women who have been hurt by abortion and we are supposed to "appreciate the abortion provider?"

What exactly are these women and men supposed to appreciate? The lies that the abortion providers told them, like their child was only a blob of tissue? Or maybe they are supposed to appreciate the psychological damage they have incurred because of their abortion? I know they are supposed to appreciate the drinking, the nightmares, the promiscuity, the pain that only gets worse and grows with each passing year. What about the Holly Pattersons, the Tamiah Russells, the Laura Smiths, the Deanna Bells, are they supposed to be appreciative to their killers? George "The Killer" Tiller has continually circumvented the law and performed late term abortions, are we supposed to hold him up for regard for being a criminal?

These same people are trying to kick the Marines out of Berkeley. They have no appreciation for soldiers and the sacrifices they make to defend our country. But we are supposed to appreciate abortionists? When have we ever expressed appreciation for liars? As demonstrated in this quote by Kathy Sparks; "Sometimes we lied. A girl might ask what her baby was like at a certain point in the pregnancy: Was it a baby yet? Even as early as 12 weeks a baby is totally formed, he has fingerprints, turns his head, fans his toes, feels pain. But we would say 'It's not a baby yet. It's just tissue, like a clot.'" -- Kathy Sparks told in "The Conversion of Kathy Sparks" by Gloria Williamson, Christian Herald Jan 1986 p 28

And there is this quote as well: "We tried to avoid the women seeing them [the fetuses] They always wanted to know the sex, but we lied and said it was too early to tell. It's better for the women to think of the fetus as an 'it'. - Abortion clinic worker Norma Eidelman quoted in Rachel Weeping p 34

So much for abortionists telling women the truth! That is just the tip of the iceberg though, when do we honor murderers? This is not my description but their own. "The first time, I felt like a murderer, but I did it again and again and again, and now, 20 years later, I am facing what happened to me as a doctor and as a human being. Sure, I got hard. Sure, the money was important. And oh, it was an easy thing, once I had taken the step, to see the women as animals and the babies as just tissue." -- abortionist quoted from a radio talk show by John Rice in "Abortion" Litt D. Murfreesboro, TN. "I do think abortion is murder- of a very special and necessary sort. And no physician ever involved with the procedure ever kids himself about that." "You know there is something in there alive that you are killing" -- another abortionist interviewed by Magda Denes author of "In Necessity and Sorrow; Life and Death Inside an Abortion Clinic."

At least the people who leave the abortion industry seek to redeem their humanity. Honoring abortionists would be like honoring NAMBLA or honoring Mafia hitmen. The whole thing is beyond ludicrous and such people deserve to live their lives in the shadows. You are profiting off the pain of women and the slaughter of children. There are very people in med school who seek to be abortionists once they are out. Well besides these women below who probably have no idea what they will be "providing" in the future.

As the real providers say it is one thing to be for choice. It is quite another to have to reassemble a tiny human being and not have something inside you go dead. No one wins in abortion, not even the "providers" who have to give up their soul to continue to be cold enough, inhumane enough and evil enough to continue to do such a job. Everybody in the abortion needs our help. But to appreciate murder-well that will never happen.
