I just wrote in the Life Section of my blog about my friends in the pro-life movement who were taken with drawn guns by the FBI for a peaceful sit-in (aka "rescue") at an abortion center in Washington DC in 2020 where they were arrested.  But as these events of late March 2022 have now exploded into mainstream media, I'm putting an updated story on my front page here. https://youtu.be/erIQTJ0dZWI The above footage on YouTube is from an FBI raid against pro-lifers just a couple days ago (March 2022.)  But if the pro-life rescue (sit-in) took place in 2020, why did the FBI wait until 2022 to raid their homes?

This is a guest post written by a firemedic and father of a young man I met this year in Arizona who reads this blog. I am a retired captain for the Tucson Fire Department but before this I was a paramedic. It was during this time that I worked one of the most memorable and life changing moments of my career. The incident was on Friday, Sept. 21, 1990. Being my 29th birthday, I'll never forget the most unusual gift I have ever received from The Lord who truly works in mysterious ways. That Friday I arrived to work at Station 10 in the late afternoon. Our shift are [...]

The new Code of Canon Law in Can. 1398 explains that anyone who "procures" an abortion is automatically (latæ sententiæ) excommunicated.  That is, anyone who participates in an abortion (mother, father, driver, doctor, nurse, etc.) is excommunicated by the very act of abortion (without a need of a penal declaration from a bishop.)  Hence, it was automatic.  Now, there is some debate if a pro-abortion politician who publicly promotes abortion is also ex-communicated automatically, for Canon 1329 speaks of circumstances "where a number of persons conspire together to commit an offense." Either way, the local bishop is required to publicly state the excommunication of a pro-abortion politician for the sake [...]

I asked my friend Will Goodman (seen above) why we joined a group called Red Rose Rescue (RRR).  RRR is a rescue arm of the pro-life movement today.  Will Goodman (with whom I have been arrested for peaceful prayer inside of abortion centers) wrote the following about why we do RRR:Red Rose Rescue is a national coalition of pro-lifers committed to rescuing Moms and babies from the murderous violence of prenatal homicide. This is why we rescue. Obedience. Almighty God gives us a Commandment in the Book of Proverbs: “Rescue those being taken to death, and spare those drawn towards slaughter.” (PRV 23:11) This is not a suggestion. It is [...]
