Terrorists Who Shot up Kosher Market Intended to Attack Jewish School for Children

/0 Comments/in , /by

Jersey City Mayor Steven Fulop said Friday that he believes the two suspects behind the Tuesday attack at a Jewish kosher market intended to target children at a Jewish school attached to the market. . .

The attack reportedly carried out by David Anderson and Francine Graham — who were both allegedly affiliated with the Black Hebrew Israelite movement — took the lives of at least six people, including a police officer and both suspects. . .

“It is pretty apparent that he goes to the adjacent door first and then turns,” Fulop said. “Secondly, it is pretty apparent from the amount of firepower and weapons he brought to that location. Clearly he had intentions of doing more damage than just murdering three people in a deli.”

Fulop promised the public that he would be forthcoming to the public with regard to any information about the attack.

“We will never know with 100 percent certainty as they are deceased, but based on those facts, it is pretty easy to conclude,” Fulop said.

Jonah, 12, sat down with WFAA-TV in Dallas to be featured on the station’s “Wednesday’s Child” segment, regular reports that “offer a glimpse into a child’s life in foster care who wants more than anything to be adopted.” . . .

The honor roll student spoke passionately during the interview about how God has carried him through tribulations and helps him keep a smile on his face despite the challenges he’s faced during his young life.

“He’s brought me through many, many things,” Jonah said of the Lord. “As far as abuse, before I came to CPS, he brought me through a lot…just, a lot, overall.”

Atheist Group ‘Bullies’ Public School Into Cutting Live Nativity From Christmas Show

/0 Comments/in , /by

An Oklahoma public elementary school removed its third-grade live Nativity scene from its annual Christmas production after receiving a threatening letter from an atheist group.

Christopher Line, staff attorney at the Freedom From Religion Foundation (FFRF), wrote to F. Andrew Fugitt at the Center for Education Law that the school district was committing a “constitutional violation”:

A concerned Edmond Public Schools community member has reported that each year, third grade teachers at Chisholm Elementary have students rehearse a live nativity scene, which students then perform at the school’s holiday concert in December. We understand that Chisholm students who participate in the nativity play various roles, including Mary and Joseph, etc.

…

While a public school can hold holiday concerts, religious performances and instruction that emphasize the religious aspects of a holiday are prohibited … A live nativity performance celebrating the story of Jesus’s birth is precisely the sort of religious endorsement prohibited by the Establishment Clause.

Line pressed the school district to “ensure that future school-sponsored performances will not include nativity scenes and that District teachers will not promote religion through class assignments.” (Read more from “Atheist Group ‘Bullies’ Public School Into Cutting Live Nativity From Christmas Show” HERE)

Report: A Third of Independent Abortion Clinics in the United States Have Closed

/0 Comments/in , /by

Almost a third of the abortion clinics in the United States not affiliated with Planned Parenthood have closed over the course of the last seven years, according to a new report from the Abortion Care Network, which also says state-level abortion laws are partially behind the trend.

“Over the last decade, abortion clinics have been closing at an alarming rate,” the report claims. “Of those closures, the vast majority have been independent abortion care providers.”

The report breaks down abortion providers into four groups, with independent abortion clinics providing a 58% majority of abortion procedures, while Planned Parenthood is responsible for a 37% share. Doctor’s offices and hospitals together account for 4% of performed abortions. Furthermore, the report says, independent clinics represent only a quarter of the facilities offering abortion in the United States.

In 2012, the report says there were 510 non-Planned Parenthood abortion clinics operating in the United States. Since 2014, however, 136 clinics have closed down, while few others have opened, bringing the current total to 344, representing an overall decrease of over 32%. The report notes that a clinic is considered “closed” if it either closes entirely or stops providing abortions.

Also, the report finds that the trend of closures “threatens to make already-scarce abortion care beyond the first trimester increasingly difficult to access” and notes that 85% of the independent clinics that closed in 2018 and 2019 provided abortions after the first trimester.

The ACN finds one of the main reasons for the decreasing number of clinics is state-level pro-life laws, which make compliance expensive.

“Since 2010, anti-abortion politicians have passed more than 400 laws that attempt to make it too expensive or logistically impossible for abortion clinics to operate,” ACN executive director Nikki Madsen told CBS News in a story published on Wednesday. The report notes that independent abortion clinics “lack visibility, institutional support, and sustainable financial resources.”

The report also takes a jab at the wave of state-level abortion laws — such as fetal heartbeat legislation and bans on abortion based on sex, race, or disability — passed across the United States earlier this year. It notes that “several of the states that passed harmful restrictions this year are states where independent clinics play an integral role in providing abortion care.”

The report notes, for example, “Kentucky, North Dakota, and Mississippi only have one clinic remaining, and that clinic is independent,” while “in Louisiana and Alabama, the only remaining clinics are independent clinics and in Arkansas, Oklahoma, and Georgia, the only providers of in-clinic [abortions] are independent.” (For more from the author of “Report: A Third of Independent Abortion Clinics in the United States Have Closed” please click HERE)

Doctors Said Woman Would Be Blind and Deaf. Her Parents Rejected Abortion and She Is Healthy

/0 Comments/in , /by

. . .Earlier this year, an Irish couple aborted their unborn baby after being told the baby tested positive for a potentially fatal fetal anomaly. Too late, they found out that the tests were wrong, and their aborted baby had been healthy. One can only guess how many other tragic cases there are like it.

Other parents have the wisdom to choose life for their unborn babies, understanding that their baby is a valuable human being, no matter what health problems they may have. . .

Catholic Philly reports the young woman shared her story Nov. 24 during the Pro-Life Union of Greater Philadelphia’s Stand Up for Life dinner.

[Rachel] Guy said she was diagnosed with a chromosomal abnormality at 22 weeks of pregnancy, and several doctors urged her mother to abort her. Doctors told her parents that she probably would be blind and deaf and have intellectual disabilities, she said. . .

Her initial doctors’ predictions never came true. Today, Guy can both see and hear. Several years ago, she said she wrote to those doctors, telling them that she forgives them for recommending that she be aborted. (Read more from “Doctors Said Woman Would Be Blind and Deaf.

Revealed: The Secretive Strategy Behind the Transgender Assault on Parental Rights

/0 Comments/in , /by

Last week, a British journalist unearthed a document laying out the transgender movement’s secretive strategy to seize control of governments, undermine parental rights, and target children for dangerous experimental drugs that lead to sterilization and genital mutilation. The document lays out a three-pronged strategy to victimize children when they are far too young to understand the ramifications of any hormone “treatment” or surgery.

As the Spectator’s James Kirkup revealed, transgender activists attack parental rights by getting ahead of the government agenda, tying their issue to more popular movements to create a “veil of protection,” and working in secret to “keep press coverage to a minimum.” In this way, they use their status as a minority to manipulate the government into enacting policies that would be opposed by the majority.

Dentons, which claims to be the world’s biggest law firm, crafted the report, working with Thomson Reuters Foundation and the International Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, Queer and Intersex Youth & Student Organization (IGLYO). Both Dentons and the Thomson Reuters Foundation claim the document does not necessarily represent their views, but they helped draft it, nonetheless.

“Only Adults? Good Practices in Legal Gender Recognition for Youth” warns that parental rights can damage children’s self-expression. “It is recognised that the requirement for parental consent or the consent of a legal guardian can be restrictive and problematic for minors,” the document argues.

In this foundational assumption, IGLYO reveals its aim: to circumvent parental consent when it comes to transgender identity. “Restricting” a child’s capacity for self-harm is an essential part of good parenting, and parents should have the right to protect their children from decisions that will damage them for the rest of their lives. No good father will allow his anorexic daughter to get liposuction, and no good mother will allow her son to cut off his arm or leg because he has body integrity disorder or identifies as an amputee.

Mother Shamed for Mentioning ‘Father Christmas,’ Told Santa Is Now Gender-Neutral

/0 Comments/in , /by

A mother from Plymouth, England, says she was scolded online for daring to mention “Father Christmas,” and informed that Santa Claus “is now seen as gender-neutral.”

The Plymouth Herald reported on the alleged incident last week, and quoted the unnamed mother as telling them, “I’ve just been shamed [on a Facebook group] for using the name ‘Father Christmas’ and [told] that ‘Santa’ is now seen as gender neutral. I was only referring to the book below [‘Father Christmas’ by Raymond Briggs] but it’s left me a little confused/on edge about what we are aloud [sic] to say.”

The mother added, “I have a small child and don’t really want to raise him saying ‘Father Christmas’ if it’s hurtful to some.”

The original message stream on Facebook has not been disclosed, but as other media outlets have picked up the story, debate over the incident has gained momentum online.

Fox News reported that one user reacted by saying of Santa, “Seriously! He’s a guy, quite clearly a guy. I would have bitten back by calling him St. Nicholas to be honest. The clue’s in the name, Nicholas not Nicola.” (Read more from “Mother Shamed for Mentioning ‘Father Christmas,’ Told Santa Is Now Gender-Neutral” HERE)

Bank Employee Claims He Was Denied Promotion Because He’s Heterosexual

/0 Comments/in , /by

The Federal Court of Canada ruled in favor of a male employee for the Canadian Imperial Bank of Commerce who said his boss informed him he had “no hope” for promotion unless he joined a “group” of gay and bisexual men. The employee, Aaren Jagadeesh, who is heterosexual, filed a discrimination complaint in April 2017, but the Canadian Human Rights Commission dismissed the complaint in November 2018, writing, “Before rendering the decision, the Commission reviewed the report disclosed to you previously and any submission(s) filed in response to the report. After examining this information, the Commission decided … to dismiss the complaint because, having regard to all of the circumstances of the complaint, further inquiry is not warranted.”

But the Federal Court has ordered a new investigation and assessment.

The National Post reports, “An investigator with the human rights commission was assigned to look into the complaint. CIBC officials were interviewed — but not the manager who allegedly made the remarks about only gay and bisexual men being promoted. That manager, the investigator was told, was on ‘extended leave of absence.’”

Jagadeesh was employed by the Canadian Imperial Bank of Commerce in Toronto as a financial services representative. He claims he was repeatedly turned down for promotions. Jagadeesh said he met alone with his manager on Sept. 15, 2015, and the manager said every male manager in the office was was gay or bisexual, and followed by informing him of his zero chances for promotion unless he joined the group.

The National Post adds, “Jagadeesh claims the manager said this was why young male employees with little or no qualifications were promoted; told him to ‘be smart and learn’; and then allegedly asked Jagadeesh what he thought of him.” According to Jagadeesh, he told his boss that he simply viewed him as his manager, that he had no problem working with anyone, and that he was heterosexual.
