March for life 2012

This was the second march I have attended for the March for Life at our nation’s capital. This march has been going on for 39 years now.

That is sad.

39 years of marching to protect the rights of all life – from the unborn to the elderly and all in between – and yet year after year we still have to continue to hold this march.

The whole reason March for Life started was because of the Roe v. Wade trial in 1973. Ever since, there has been a March in Washington D.C. in peaceful protest to gain back the rights of those who can’t fight for themselves.

My experience at the march was very much like my first experience: it was cold, wet and muddy. My favorite part of the march is seeing all the people who are there in solidarity to fight for human rights. It is estimated that a half a million people were in attendance this year.

Everywhere you looked, you saw this mob of never ending people – majority of them being teens. It was so refreshing to see the teenagers there fighting to put an end to this undemocratic decision that was made in 1973.

The lack of media coverage though disturbs me. It grates me to my core. An event of this magnitude goes unreported year after year. It just goes to show how much our government controls. It’s sickening.

People deserve better.
People deserve to hear the truth.
People deserve to stop being deceived.
Babies deserve a chance to LIVE.
Elderly deserve their right to LIVE as well.

Often times when thinking about the pro-life movement, people think that it’s strictly about abortion. It is not. It is the right to ALL life. For ALL humans. Black, White, Asian, Middle Eastern – from the youngest to the oldest and all in between. When will we all wake up? When will we realize that we are killing each other?

NO ONE has the right to determine anothers worth in this world.
NO ONE has the right to kill a baby in utero.
NO ONE has the right to end a persons life in any circumstance.

Only GOD has the right to determine when someone is going to live, or someone is going to die. If this world wasn’t so full of humans trying to play God, then maybe we wouldn’t have half the problems we do today.
