I’ve been thinking of the Delhi Sands Flower-loving Fly.
You know the one. The little guy in California that’s federally protected on the Endangered Species List?
The pomace fly made the list as well. Fines are steep for those who infringe on their habitats, or who harm a creature on the list. Up to $50,000 and/or jail time can be imposed for varying crimes against nature.
Yet pre-born…..
Veterans Day means much to many Americans as we honor our veterans, and the victims, of war. I’m always amazed that so many Americans like my big brother, Brad, volunteer to protect our nation and allies–in spite of the threat of death.
Thankfully, my brother lived to tell about his time serving in Desert Storm. And, an uncle of mine lived to tell of his experiences on the Navy ship that transported Marines to Vietnam. — My grandfather, however, would never talk…..

If you’ve ever blazed out in passionate anger– or “just vented” at someone, you may know the desperation that can follow–you’ll do anything to get back at the offender. “How could they do that to ME?” you think. The “After all I’ve done…” thoughts swarm your head and a litany of “I always” and “He never” arguments fall in a long…..
Many pro-lifers wrongly assume that the abortion-minded woman is only thinking of herself. In my case, as in many others I know of, choosing the death of the baby seemed the best option when considering the already-existing lives of others.
Out of consideration of others, I took the life of my child.
So how can the pro-life world help women in…..
Though I am a former Planned Parenthood client, after having an abortion, I changed my mind about the organization and what they offer.
Now I believe there are nearly 60 million reasons for Congress to defund PP. That’s one human reason for everyone who has been aborted between 1973 and 2016*.
While that count tallies abortions from other facilities as well as PP, I don’t believe taxpayers should fund any organizations that commit infanticide. If even one human killed by abortion is not reason enough to defund PP, consider these reasons:

Today was my last day working as a reporter. While I’m antsy to jump in to my new job, I’m in no way eager to leave my boss, Tess Nelson, The World’s Okayest Editor. From that morning in October 2012 when she head-hunted me, I suspected we’d be fast friends. Her dry, cheeky snark has kept me in stitches ever since.

While looking at 2017’s wide-open spaces, those of us in the pro-life world can expect greater unity and hearts opened to realize that unborn children are human indeed — and must be protected. If our nation’s laws protect sea turtle eggs, shouldn’t we also value human life to at least the same degree?
Unborn lives are precious and valuable —…..
