“We have a right to go out at night and
feel safe” said one young lady being interviewed. What about an infant in the womb and his/her
right to feel safe? What about the
marchers for the babies and their right to feel safe from being abused and
harassed by the rent a crowd? There is
that word “right” again but it’s a pity that this “right” is only for a select
crowd and not for everyone.
visible,
known, and media heightened whereas the infant in the womb is invisible and is
dependent on own mother and father to want or not want it. The infant is also beautiful. Is also being
killed. Is also vulnerable but the media and the rabble have no
respect
for the newly created life and so it is up for being killed because “womyn’s
rights” say that “womyn” can choose to take their child to die without being
disturbed. These “womyn” do not see the “violence and the hate” underpinning
abortion.
For the infants in the womb there is no
“five, six, seven eight, end the violence end the hate”
The March for the babies clearly showed
that violence and hate are alive and well in Melbourne, the “world’s most
liveable city” especially when it comes to violence and hatred of in utero
babies and those who would march to defend their right to be born and to enjoy their
own life.
A anti violence advocate, during the
march to reclaim the streets, said in interview that violence against women
occurred all the time at the hands of violent men. Indeed!
However, violence against in utero babies
happens 50,000,000 times a year globally and over 100,000 in Australia yearly
and unless we as a society understand the underlying violence which makes up
our society beginning with violence against the smallest and frailest, and this
violence demanded by its own parents, then the violence that occurs to other
women and men and youth in the streets, in homes, in schools, in playgrounds,
in cyberspace, should not come as a surprise.
Violence permeates all our modern
society because if it becomes permissible to kill the smallest of innocents
with impunity, the frail, the disabled, then the only differences are of size,
visibility and perhaps of physical appearance (beauty), then the streets will
not become safe no matter how many chants.
The streets will become safe when we as
a society begin to honour and respect all life.
Until then no amount of chanting “five, six, seven eight, end the
violence, end the hate” will not end the violence or the hate because to have
killed an in utero child is to commit violence and have hate for life as the
reason.
