Is Gosnell America’s “Biggest Serial Killer”?

October 24, 2018/0 Comments/in Later Abortion /by Monica Snyder

This post contains quotes, summaries, and descriptions from the grand jury report regarding Kermit Gosnell. Much of this information is very disturbing, including graphic descriptions of violence. NBC published a review of the Gosnell movie by Robin Marty. She didn’t like the film. In particular she took exception to the moniker “America’s Biggest Serial Killer,” saying: […]

It’s been five years since Kermit Gosnell’s conviction

May 14, 2018/0 Comments/in Uncategorized /by Kelsey Hazzard

Yesterday, as pro-life advocates around the United States celebrated Mother’s Day, Kermit Gosnell marked the five years of life as a convicted felon. Gosnell, the notorious Philadelphia abortionist, was convicted on May 13, 2013 of three counts of murder, one count of manslaughter, and 211 counts of violating Pennsylvania’s abortion waiting period law. The murder counts […]

Gosnell, Four Years Later

May 15, 2017/0 Comments/in Uncategorized /by Kelsey Hazzard

This past Saturday marked the anniversary of Kermit Gosnell’s 2013 murder conviction. Although Gosnell had countless victims, only four were the subject of the conviction. Three were newborn infants who died when Gosnell “snipped” their necks. One was Karnamaya Mongar, a 41-year-old Bhutanese refugee who Gosnell killed in a botched abortion. The Susan B. Anthony […]

“Gosnell” book review

February 8, 2017/0 Comments/in Uncategorized /by Guest Blogger

[Today’s guest post is by Crystal Kupper.]   As a grad student/military wife/mom/freelance writer/runner who moved continents last year with four small children in tow, I rarely read anything these days unless it’s a textbook or test result. But when I saw that a husband-and-wife journalism team from Ireland had written a book about Kermit Gosnell, the law-breaking abortionist from Philadelphia, I knew […]

Apparently protecting embryos is more extreme than severing babies’ spines.

May 31, 2016/0 Comments/in Later Abortion /by Monica Snyder

Pro-choice activists mock the most socially unpalatable aspects of the pro-life position. Broadly speaking, pro-lifers believe human life is morally relevant when the human organism begins: as a zygote. This means we oppose killing not only fetuses, but also embryos and zygotes. And so, while we primarily object to surgical abortion, many of us also […]

Life after Gosnell

April 1, 2014/5 Comments/in Uncategorized /by Kelsey Hazzard

This time last year, notorious Philadelphia abortionist Kermit Gosnell was on trial. “For procrastination,” as one insightful commentator put it. Gosnell waited until his victims had passed through the birth canal before cutting their spinal cords. Let’s not forget that he also killed adult women (a fact that unfortunately got less attention than it should […]

Gosnell and Abortion, Part 3 of 3

April 19, 2013/3 Comments/in Uncategorized /by Monica Snyder

In the first post, I introduced the theme that pro-choice journalists are unconsciously avoiding directly covering the Gosnell case because it would cause cognitive dissonance and provided the first example: the Gosnell case would reveal just how liberal and out-of-touch the abortion status quo is in this country. In the second post I got to the […]

Gosnell and Abortion, Part 2 of 3

April 18, 2013/2 Comments/in Later Abortion /by Guest Blogger

[Today’s post by guest blogger Nathaniel is reprinted with permission from his blog, Difficult Run.] Yesterday I wrote the first in a series of 3 posts discussing why the mainstream media has been reluctant to cover the Kermit Gosnell case. Rather than suggest that there’s some kind of conspiracy or willful deception, my belief is […]

Gosnell and Abortion, Part 1 of 3

April 17, 2013/1 Comment/in Uncategorized /by Guest Blogger

[Today’s post is by guest blogger Nathaniel, re-posted with permission from his blog, Difficult Run.] Less than a week after Kirsten Powers’ USA Today piece, the concerted pro-life effort to get the Gosnell trial the media attention it tragically deserves has succeeded. Sort of. There are a lot of articles being written about Gosnell, but […]
