The details of the trial of abortionist and infanticidist Kermit Gosnell have been haunting me, and I’m sure many of you, for some days now. What this man did, and how he got away with it are so difficult to process on so many levels. I’ve felt anger, sadness, desperation, horror, and more reading the testimony and editorials. And then there are all the issues with the trial itself. The deafening silence of the major news media outlets. The empty reserved press seating at the courtroom. The silence of our political officials. The negligence of “oversight” agencies and the failure of individuals and institutions who knew what was taking place in Gosnell’s “house of horrors” to speak up. But none of that is what I want to talk about here. That’s all been discussed at length, and no doubt will continue to be. I link to some of the better examples of those discussions at the bottom of this post.
