Jon Speed, an New York bookstore owner who closed last month for a “day of mourning” following New York’s passage of the extreme pro-abortion Reproductive Health Act<\/a>, recently spoke to the city council of Batavia, New York, urging them to make their city “a sanctuary city for the unborn.”<\/p>\n

Speed, who owns The Book Scout<\/a>, received a mountain of orders after his decision to close his business for a day went viral on social media. Speed is a former pastor and co-producer of the anti-abortion documentary, “Babies are Murdered Here.”<\/a> Last month when he spoke with Live Action News, Speed said<\/a> his decision to close was “a statement of my disgust with NY\u2019s new law. My prayer for them all is their repentance and faith in Christ. Their hearts must change if their minds will change.” Speed took an even stronger message to the Batavia City Council, and didn’t mince words:<\/p>\n

As you consider drafting a letter to Governor Cuomo, my question to the entire council is this: ‘What is the best way to kill a baby? Is it using an abortifacient?… Is it a saline abortion where the baby is burned alive in the mother’s womb? Is it a surgical abortion in the second trimester where the baby is cut into pieces and then reassembled in the dish?… Perhaps it’s to deliver the baby in the third trimester and then stick a pair of scissors into the base of his or her neck. Because that’s what we’re talking about here. All of it….<\/em><\/p>\n
