Last week there were multiple marches across the U.S. The
first was in support of the worth and rights of the unborn, held in Washington
D.C. The others, held in various major cities from coast to coast, were billed
as “women’s marches.” Ironically, the women’s
marches were really focused on two things: abortion rights and hatred for
President Donald Trump.
Several conservative news sources interviewed marchers
and the degree of oblivion was astounding. As I watched the procession, the signs
the marchers held were pro homosexual, abortion rights, or hatred for our
president. Are we to believe these are the three top priorities for women in
America today?
I’m sure some really felt some sense of threat over
what this administration might do
that would affect them but rather than based on facts, I suspect their fears were
and are fueled by community organizers, Planned Parenthood, and other activist’s
groups that want to push their agenda. Most are not willing to engage in
dialogue but prefer to scream over anyone who disagrees with them. When asked
what policies they disagreed with, not one could give an example. It sounded
like they were all instructed from the same playbook:
1) President Trump is misogynistic
2) President Trump wants to deny a woman’s right to do what she wants with “her” body
3) began to scream over those who disagree.
Does screaming in the street, dressed as a vagina, really win people over?
A firestorm has been raging of late over sexual
harassment against women. Actors, directors, politicians, and others, many well
respected, have been dealt a death blow to their careers; some may even find
themselves going to prison before it’s all said and done. Like most in this
nation, I agree; if they have committed a crime, they should pay. What I find
funny, not that there is anything humorous in all of this, is that this one issue
seems to be the only topic that both liberals and conservatives agree on,
barring the case of Roy Moore.
Moore, a conservative Republican from Alabama, lost
his senate run due to allegations of sexual misconduct. His accusers waited
forty years to come forward with their claims and most have been overwhelmingly
discredited, leading some to believe this was nothing more than a ruse to keep
him from being elected. His opponent, Doug Jones, won the seat. Jones is an
ardent supporter of abortion. Before the allegations, Moore was overwhelmingly
ahead of Jones in the polls.
My intent here is not to make a case for one or the other
but simply use this as an example. For many liberal women, and even some
conservatives, a “claim” of misconduct against a woman is worthy of a lynching without
a trial while abortion is championed as a woman’s right. For most
conservatives, a claim of sexual misconduct is worthy of investigation and a
proven crime against a woman is deserving of prosecution and punishment. At the
same time, most conservatives believe in the sanctity of life for the unborn; all
life is precious and worthy of protection.
Regarding the argument of sexual misconduct, my
problem with the liberals is how they choose to condemn a man who is simply
accused of a violation, if they disagree with his political views, while overlooking
a man who has been found guilty when his political views align with their own.
Case in point, Bill Clinton. Clinton was notorious for his sexual scandals,
while in the White House no less. Today he is cheered as a hero by the left.
How? Why?
Is
this not hypocrisy at its finest?
It seems that liberal women are dictating morality,
even law, in today’s America. Out with the Constitution, out with the rights of
the accused (man), and out with the rights of the unborn child. Feminism has
finally reached the pinnacle that it has fought so long and hard for. I do not
imply that all women subscribe to radical feminist beliefs, this is certainly
not the case. I also do not believe that women should be denied rights. I just
don’t understand how they can deny the rights they have fought so hard for to
their unborn children.
When I was a child, my mother refused to allow us to
have a pet hamster or gerbil. Her reason was simple: they eat their own young. As a child, I found this horrible and
unacceptable. How could a mother eat their own babies? As an adult, I ask a
similar question, how can a mother have her child cut in pieces and sucked out
of her womb? The safest place on the planet should be the mother’s womb.
