The real injustice: Why aren't Americans outraged?

There has been an endless amount of commentary and protests on the recent cases involving the death of Michael Brown and Eric Garner. Motivation ranging from ‘they were killed because they were black’ and ‘police officers abuse their power’ to ‘black on black crime rate is the source of trouble’ and ‘it happened because they were thugs’.

Everyone seems to have an opinion. Everyone seems so willing to blame someone; whether they say it was Eric Garner’s fault or police brutality. There have been a series of extensive news reports covering the cases: Conservatives arguing with Liberals, blacks arguing with whites—riots tearing down businesses! There have even been professional athletes voicing their opinions on game night by wearing shirts with sayings such as ‘hands up—don’t shoot’ or ‘I can’t breathe.
Maybe you stand on the side that says it is all racism—that black people are singled out and victimized because of their skin color—that even if they do absolutely nothing wrong there is a chance that they will be called out.

OR maybe you say that it has nothing to do with race—it’s about obeying the law, always.

OR maybe you are the one sharing videos on Facebook of Police Officers abusing their power and you spend your time bashing the authorities as if they owe you anything. (sidenote: what are you going do when you need help or someone you care about needs protection? Ungrateful and Entitled, the theme of our American Society)

There is even a chance you are the one to busy pointing out the crime rates in black communities to think about anything else.

So you’re outraged? So you feel like you might somehow lose your rights? You wonder if you will be a victim even when in the moment you are defense-less?

Now let me tell you about the real injustice…
“The United States Supreme Court ruling of January 22, 1973, (Roe vs. Wade and Doe vs Bolton) struck down the laws in all 50 states, allowing abortion – for any reason – up to the moment of live birth. The father of the child, even if he is married to the mother, has no legal right to prevent the abortion.”
Over 1.3 million abortions occur yearly.
You want to be pissed about something? You want to protest for a good cause? You want to be concerned about the rights of human beings? Be pissed about the killing of millions of defenseless, innocent babies. Protest for the lives of children who have NO say and NO chance of survival. Be concerned for the fact that it is legal in all fifty states to abort a baby throughout all nine months of pregnancy.


Are you are concerned about your race? (White or Black or Hispanic or Indian or Purple or Green)

Do you feel like Minorities targeted?

Well guess what… they are targeted.
 By Planned Parenthood.
“Planned Parenthood, the largest seller of abortions in the United States, has located 80% of its abortion clinics in minority neighborhoods, disproportionally targeting minorities for abortion.”
Black lives do matter.
                        
Did You Know?:
-        18 days a Baby’s heart beats
-        8 weeks all organs function
-        9 weeks the baby has individual fingerprints
-        10 weeks a baby can feel pain
-        12 weeks a baby can smile

Why don’t the professional athletes make a stand for this violation? Why doesn't the President of the United States give his condolences for all the dead African American babies? Better yet, all the aborted babies? Don’t be misled, the media and the government are not really concerned for our rights.

It is sad that Eric Garner and Michael Brown lost their lives, especially if they did not know Christ as their Lord and Savior. But they had more of a voice, more rights, and more opportunities to do something with their lives than all the unborn babies EVER will.

  1. The healthy human heart cries our for justice for all. A country that continues to turn a blind eye to the egregious injustice of abortion towards the most vulnerable...our unborn children...yet while trying to define and correct every other evidence of societal injustice is destined for a dysfunctional psychotic suicidal end. A self inflicted gunshot to the head to attempt to cure a headache
