Texas abortion group claims “Abortions are magical”

Anti-Life radicals at the abortion group Texas Equal Access (TEA) Fund are handing out candles with the perverse message: “Abortions are magical.”  In a Facebook post earlier this month, the group described the candles featuring the abortion message and a picture of a unicorn as “a token of appreciation” for the group’s volunteers, and said the candles would to be handed out at a holiday party.

A look at TEA’s mission quickly removes any confusion as to the extreme and radical messaging chosen for “holiday party favors.”  TEA is one of several abortion groups in Texas that raises money for mothers seeking elective abortion.  The nonprofit will pay money toward abortion costs, averaging around $300.  Similar groups will also pay for travel expenses, including for mothers traveling out-of-state for elective late-term abortion.

On the group’s website, TEA brags, “We have helped girls as young as 11 and women as old as 44.”  There is no indication that the group does anything beyond fundraise for elective abortion, so there is no assurance that the group did anything to actually help the 11-year-old victims who were further victimized by abortion.  A pregnant child does not simply need money to kill her preborn child; she needs access to counseling and law enforcement, and she needs protection from the criminal who put her in this position.

"Magical",  I guess, in the sense that - poof! - the "problem" disappears.   I'm reminded of the lyrics of Graham Parker's classic song You Can't Be Too Strong,  which speaks of "washing it away, as if it wasn't real".   

Did they tear it out, with talons of steel
And give you a shot, so that you wouldn't feel
And wash it away, as if it wasn't real

It's just a mistake, I won't have to face
Don't give it a name, don't give it a place
Don't give it a chance, it's lucky in a way

It must have felt strange, to find me inside you
I hadn't intended to stay
If you want to keep it right, put it to sleep at night
Squeeze it until it could say

You can't be too strong you can't be too strong
You can't be too strong
You can't be too strong you decide what's wrong

Well I ain't gonna cry, I'm gonna rejoice
And shout myself dry, and go see the boys
They'll laugh when I say, I left it overseas

Yeah babe I know that it gets dark, down by luna park
But everybody else, is squeezing out a spark
That happened in the heat, somewhere in the dark, in the dark

The doctor gets nervous, completing the service
He's all rubber gloves and no head
He fumbles the light switch, it's just another minor hitch
Wishes to God he was dead

But you can't be too strong you can't be too strong
You can't be too strong
You can't be too strong
Can't be too strong you decide what's wrong

Can't be too hard, too tough, too rough, too right, too wrong
And you, can't be too strong
Baby you can't be too strong

This is the kind of prideful ghoulishness Paul called it a "seared conscience" - that just needs to be made very public. Let ordinary people see what Pro-Abortion people are really like.
