Trash Bins Searched as Woman Tells Police Boyfriend Threw Away Baby

From FOX NEWS:
DETROIT — Detroit area authorities say they have been searching for a newborn whose mother told them was thrown away by her boyfriend. The Detroit News, Detroit Free Press and broadcast reports say police were looking for the baby Tuesday night and Wednesday morning following the 29-year-old woman's examination Tuesday at a hospital. They are also searching for her 35-year-old boyfriend, the baby's father. The Detroit woman, who was bloodied and caked with mud when she checked herself into the hospital, said she had suffered a miscarriage. But police say she later said her boyfriend had taken the baby from her and threw it into a trash bin. Officials don't know if the baby is alive.

I've seen three cases similar to this one in the past two weeks. As more situations like this occur, I believe an alarming number of people in our culture are unknowingly slipping into a mentality that life is only valuable if that particular life is wanted. I fear the outcry over horrible crimes like this one (if in fact, a crime did occur) is dwindling. America continues to embrace the Accepted Evil of abortion as more and more people become desensitized to reports that newborns are being thrown away like trash, left in a toilet, or taken to a laundry room to die.

If you consider yourself Pro-life, when is the last time you did something to promote the pro-life cause? When is the last time you showed compassion and care for a single mother or pregnant teenager? How often do you share your pro-life views with your co-workers, or attempt to keep them informed about situations like this one and the need to value every life.

Many good organizations and hard-working concerned citizens are presenting and arguing the pro-life case every day, and I commend them. I simply challenge you to recommit to this cause.
