The descriptions of the procedure were horrific. Having been targeted by Chinese Family Planning Officials, Feng was brutally beaten and forcibly taken to a hospital, where she was made to sign an abortion consent form. While retraining her on the operating table, and covering her face with a pillow, the doctors injected a fatal toxin into the child\u2019s brain, causing the baby to writhe and die in agony.<\/p>\n<p>When Feng gave birth to the stillborn, a picture was taken of her lying next to her child. Graphic, stark, and sadistic. When the photo went viral online, this crime was broadcasted to the world. This is a crime against humanity. It is a violation of women\u2019s rights and human rights, and it is one of the more vicious murders I have heard reported to date.<\/p>\n<p>Naturally, this story did \u201cspark an outrage.\u201d It should have. This crime was profoundly wicked, and people across the world are infuriated at the appalling way the abortion was conducted. Most people would agree that the One-Child Policy that China continues to actively enforce is revolting.<\/p>\n<p>But the striking reality is, while we recognize that the murdered child of 7 months <em>was<\/em> a human, not a fetus, no stance against abortion as a practice is ever engaged.<\/p>\n<p>It is shocking, that the world can hear stories of these kinds of reports, and be disgusted, yet still believe that abortion is permissible. How is the story of a beaten mother with her bloodied and murdered child any different from the realities that happen in the West, with clean scalpels behind closed doors?<\/p>\n<p>The result is the same. Vicious murder of a living human. Whether in China or New York.<\/p>\n<p>If only Feng&#8217;s testimony would shed light on the cruelty of abortion. Every abortion.<\/p>\n<p><em>News Sources:<\/em><em><\/em><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.huffingtonpost.co.uk\/2012\/06\/14\/feng-jiamei-chinese-woman-forced-abortion-photo_n_1595763.html\" target=\"_blank\"><em>http:\/\/www.huffingtonpost.co.uk\/2012\/06\/14\/feng-jiamei-chinese-woman-forced-abortion-photo_n_1595763.html<\/em><\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/chinadailymail.com\/2012\/06\/15\/three-officials-suspended-for-forced-abortion-in-china\/\" target=\"_blank\"><em>http:\/\/chinadailymail.com\/2012\/06\/15\/three-officials-suspended-for-forced-abortion-in-china\/<\/em><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>If only Feng&#8217;s testimony would shed light on the cruelty of <em>every<\/em> abortion.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":73,"featured_media":13477,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"om_disable_all_campaigns":false},"categories":[3],"tags":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v20.7 -
