Alex Schadenberg of the Euthanasia Prevention Coalition has excerpts from and thoughts on the nationwide examination of the euthanasia law in the Netherlands which was just published in the Lancet on July 11, 2012. Must-read study and a must-read blog post. This phrase from the Lancet article should be frightening to all: "The decreased frequency of ending of life without explicit patient request..." Euthanasia and physician-assisted suicide without the [...]

Jim Goad at Taki Magazine: I started to notice that it was nearly impossible to endorse abortion without in some way supporting basic eugenic precepts. It’s difficult to argue that all living humans are equal if you also support snuffing the unborn in the womb because they’re “unwanted.” Goad says plenty of other politically incorrect things about the South, cousin-marriage, and race, [...]

From Live Action: @LiveActionFilms: Scratch a U.N. women's conference, and you'll find a whole lot of people agitating for #abortion worldwide http://ow.ly/cbS0j It's notable that the Commission on the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination against Women doesn't care about gendercide in South and East Asia and that the Women's Commissar is insulting to pro-life women.

The United Nations has declared July 11 World Population Day. But according to the UN Population Fund, it is not a day to celebrate. Rather, it is a time to plan for fewer people. Or as the UNFPA euphemistically puts it, their campaigns seek to convince the world of the "essential part that reproductive health plays in creating a just and equitable world." Over at ProWomanProLife, [...]

Fantastic video of Kathy Shaidle (AKA Five Feet of Fury) and David Menzies talking about a preacher who was harassed by police at the Pride Parade in Toronto while actual laws are broken literally behind the backs of cops. Shaidle says police will have to change their motto from "Our cops are tops" to "Our cops are bottoms."

The New Abortion Caravan completed its cross country trip (Vancouver to Ottawa). Here's The Interim's coverage from the July issue of the paper. We will have more in a forthcoming edition of the paper.

Abortion proponents deny that abortion is used as a form of birth control, but Andrea Mrozek has found proof -- from the horse's mouth, so to speak. Erin Gloria Ryan writes at the feminist Jezebel website: "Until mass abstinence is feasible or permanent pregnancy is desired, sustainable, or safe, though, the best options women have to control their reproductive health are contraception and abortion."

The argument of the Independent Women's Forum against Washington's involvement in distributing contraception has been summarized by Reason. Three key points: contraception is widely available, with various price-points so it is affordable to all, and the only job the federal government has is ensure safety and protect patents. It could be argued that the Food and Drug Administration does not do enough to warn [...]

The American Spectator's Daniel Allott notes that Georgetown Magazine, Georgetown University's alumni magazine, reports former NFL Commissioner Paul Tagliabue, a Georgetown grad chair of the university's borad of directors, has given $5 million for a variety of programs. Georgetown Magazine reports: The Tagliabues’ $5 million gift will be divided equally among five areas: need-based undergraduate scholarships, scholarships for student-athletes in both men’s and women’s [...]
