Life doesn't count after someone is born?
Or is it the color that matters?
Seems like we should be hearing something from those who claim to respect life so much.

Pro life people don't seem to support pre-natal care nor any other services for poor mothers. The fetus is sacred and must be worshipped, that's all.

Has anyone noticed that a lot of white people objectify black children? I remember once hearing someone say "but their kids are so cute" in a way that stuck me like they viewed the kids almost as objects that exist for entertainment.
I know that it's a tradition and all children experience it at some point. It just seems to be a little different when it comes to white adults and black kids.

That's someone else's job -- despite all the rhetoric about loving one another, being your brother's keeper, doing unto the least of these...you know, all those inconvenient truths from the book they love to quote so damn much, as long as it only suits their ends.
So, like everyone else here has said, for most pro-lifers, their concern begins at conception and ends at the delivery room.
