“2 men arrested in Albuquerque abortion clinic arson,” reported The Albuquerque, Tribune (December 28, 2007). \u201cA small gasoline can was thrown through the clinic window and the fumes ignited, said Jake Gonzales, the Albuquerque ATF resident agent in charge. The clinic was ruined and shut down.\u201d Let us rejoice. <\/p>\n
Maggie Shepard reports that \u201cthe Dec. 6 firebombing of an Albuquerque abortion clinic was not orchestrated\u201d by citizen rescuers trying to save innocent children from the hands of bloody abortionists. Rather, \u201ca man whose ex-girlfriend planned to have an abortion at the clinic set the place on fire before her appointment, according to court documents.\u201d No report was given on the well being of the child or the mother who had planned to kill him or even whether the reality check has led to a change of mind concerning her premeditated murder plans. <\/p>\n
\tIndeed, lamentation follows hard on jubilation. \u201cSergio T. Baca, 22, along with friend Chad D. Altman, 25, have been arrested on federal charges of arson and could face additional charges of violations against the federal Freedom to Access Clinic Entrances act,\u201d reported the Tribune. Sadly, \u201cInvestigators with the Albuquerque Fire Department and the federal Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives\u201d had been pursuing those who performed this good deed for the citizens of Albuquerque! “Tips came in, and they’ve been pounding the pavement for the last two weeks,” Fire Department spokesman Capt. Mike Paiz said.<\/p>\n
\tAltman was released into the custody of his parents after both men appeared in court on Friday (28 December) and pleaded not guilty. Indeed, there is no guilt in the action taken to rescue one\u2019s child from death. Court papers indicated that father Baca was described by his girl friend as \u201cextremely upset” in reaction to her decision to abort their child. Investigators believe that Baca recruited Altman to help burn the clinic and thus save his child. <\/p>\n
\tThe good news following the sad news of the arrest of these men is the fact that \u201cAuthorities have said the clinic was considered a total loss[!] [emphasis ours] after gasoline was thrown into the building through a broken window and lit on fire\u201d <\/p>\n
\tBut let us review some bad citizenship, even treacherous behavior. Shepherd reported that \u201cwitnesses in a hotel overlooking the clinic, Abortion Acceptance of Albuquerque, told investigators they saw two hooded figures near the clinic who then drove away in a van.\u201d Even less patriotic behavior was to be found in the actions of another. \u201cA co-worker of Baca’s roommate called detectives\u201d according to the Tribune, \u201cwith information about a possible suspect, according to a federal criminal complaint.\u201d Little confidence ought to be placed in any federal investigative report that \u201ca hair was found on a broken window, and DNA was found in a glove left in the parking lot, according to the complaint.\u201d But that is beside the point. These fellows had good reason to burn the abortuary. Sergio Baca\u2019s child was to be taken there to be sliced to death and suctioned out of his mother. To their everlasting shame, friends and fellow citizens have failed to see the truth, the holocaust in their very neighborhood. They have protected the wicked and harmed the innocent.<\/p>\n
\tBut hope springs. To the greater glory of God two Planned Barrenhood sites in Albuquerque were damaged 20 days after the conflagration of the Abortion Acceptance of Albuquerque abortuary! Yes, it was a real Christmas Day at \u201ctwo separate Albuquerque Planned Parenthood locations,\u201d according to AP reports on 25 and 26 December. <\/p>\n
\tNo connection has been drawn to the Messrs. Baca and Altman, leaving open the possibility the deed being performed by general baby rescuers, relatives of the threatened womb child, angelic beings, vengeful dads, et al.<\/p>\n
\tDan Frosch, writing for the New York Times, lightens our hearts leading off his report as follows: \u201cA rash of attacks on abortion and family planning clinics has struck Albuquerque this month, the first such violence there in nearly a decade.\u201d (\u201cAlbuquerque Has Renewal of Attacks on Abortion,\u201d Dec. 28, 2007)<\/p>\n
\tIt is has been a long time coming. The last such action was wrought by Ricky Lee McDonald when he burned the same abortuary about a decade ago. Mr. McDonald was due to be released from prison on 20 December, 2007. (Ed. note: Hopefully someone else took up the privilege this time. It surely may be taken as a kind gesture in honor of this merciful ex-con.)<\/p>\n
\t(Back to the Times) Frosch reports on how the nest of Albuquerque abortionists are handling the situation: \u201cThe small, tightknit group of abortion providers here reacted with a mix of shock and fear over the attacks.\u201d <\/p>\n
\tIndeed, when a person \u201cprovides\u201d dead babies for their mothers one would expect some \u201cshock and fear\u201d to factor into the situation at some point. <\/p>\n
\t\u201cIt makes me really angry,\u201d Martha Edmands of Planned Parenthood said. \u201cIt\u2019s really upsetting.\u201d <\/p>\n
\t(Ed. note: Indeed. It makes us angry, too, Martha. Why does our government allow murderers to live and continue to practice their trade?)<\/p>\n
\tThe abortuary administrator, Aborionist Curtis Boyd, is a National Abortion Federation founder and an abortionist in se. He mourned his loss accordingly:<\/p>\n
\t \u201cAfter working on the abortion reform movement for 40 years, I wake up and I still can\u2019t believe we\u2019re still where we are. When will it stop?\u201d . . .<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019m going to have to accept the fact that I\u2019m going to die before the rights of women are secured, and the violence against providers and staff comes to an end,\u201d Dr. Boyd said (New York Times).<\/p>\n
Boyd is the husband of Glenna Halvorson-Boyd, who served on NAF’s Board of directors and twenty years ago was the president for two years. He \u201cperforms\u201d surgical abortions and distributes the dangerous abortion drug RU 486 (mifepristone) which has killed numerous women and injured more than 1,100 in the United States alone (LifeNews.com, Dec. 26, 2007). He shares the facility with fellow veteran abortionist Bruce Ferguson. The Boyds vowed to rebuild their operation. But they said it had been difficult to find a new location because landlords were \u201cwary of renting to an abortion provider.\u201d<\/p>\n
\tThe Feminist Majority Foundation reports that \u201c18 percent of clinics experienced severe violence in 2005, compared with 52 percent in 1994.\u201d The wind has been weak for a long time. Perhaps new gusts will blow.<\/p>\n
\tThankfully, we have concluded anno domini 2007 with a pleasant breeze. Let us pray that the New Year brings more of the same: life to children and the closing of many death camps.<\/p>\n
\tFinally, with Tiny Tim, let us say: \u201cGod bless us all, every one.\u201d <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
