It amazes me that this is about as clear of an issue as one could ever have when it comes to good versus evil and life versus death, but half the nation still chooses evil and death.
Here's yet another example from this weekend out of the DC/Baltimore area.
[Warning: Graphic Images Ahead]
Two pro-lifers in Baltimore, Maryland were viciously attacked outside an abortion facility on Friday, leaving one man in hospital with a fractured bone in his face, according to local activists.
According to an email by local pro-lifer John Roswell, on Saturday there was a violent, unprovoked attack outside of a Planned Parenthood on N. Howard Street in Baltimore, that left two pro-life men, Dick Schafer and Mark Crosby, assaulted and seriously injured.
Photographs of the aftermath of the event obtained by LifeSiteNews show Crosby with what appears to be severe facial injuries.
Here is another photo showing the scene of the attack, where Schafer was thrown into a planter and a window.
Both men were outside the Planned Parenthood to offer alternatives to women who were coming to kill their children. To counter this, Planned Parenthood employs staff and volunteers to "escort" the women past pro-lifers who want them to love and choose life for their babies.
According to Roswell, one man on scene couldn't stand the sight of men trying to help mothers and babies and decided to draw blood.
Outlining the attack, Roswell's email states that the assailant had initially asked one of the Planned Parenthood escorts (referred to by Roswell as "deathscorts") to hold his drink before lunging at Schafer "who believes his back was turned at that time to the assailant."
"Mark, who was in the street, tried to go to Dick's aid and was hit in the face, knocking him on the ground and the man then kicked him in the head," Roswell added in the email.
According to Roswell, it was then that a client from nearby pro-life pregnancy center Options @328 Baltimore "screamed," prompting a nurse from that facility to come to the aid of the men.
The pregnancy center opened right next door to the Planned Parenthood a few years ago. I wonder how long the Planned Parenthood staff would have let these two men bleed out before getting help.
Like I said, how can you doubt which side God Almighty is on when we as a country have literal visual metaphors like this abortion clinic and pregnancy center right next door to each other?
Schafer is recovering at home, but Crosby is currently being treated at the University of Maryland shock trauma facility. Crosby suffered a fracture plate bone in his right cheek and will have to have his eye orbit replaced with metal. There is no word if their assailant has been arrested.
These stories always remind me of Deuteronomy 30:15:
See, I set before you today life and prosperity, death and destruction.
And what is life and prosperity?
...to love the Lord your God, to walk in obedience to him, and to keep his commands, decrees and laws
