GOSNELL: Yes, justice is served

The recent conviction of Kermit Gosnell on three counts of murder for killing three babies born alive in his clinic by snipping their spinal cords with a pair of scissors has given the public a peek into the ugly underbelly of the abortion industry in this country. The callous disregard this man has for the life of a baby, whether in utero or born, is indicative of the abortion mind-set that has permeated our culture. It is my hope that this case will serve as a starting point for the reexamination of this most horrific procedure.

The vast human potential that has been lost in the last 40 years while we have allowed this monstrous procedure to be perpetrated on the most innocent and helpless of our society is almost beyond comprehension. Lord have mercy on us.
