At ArgusLeader.com, January 4, there is a story about a Planned Parenthood abortuary that is moving to a location near a high school (in Sioux Falls). Understandably, this has gotten a lot of people stirred up. On January 5 the Argus Leader had a front page poll with the question, "Is Planned Parenthood's new location (across from Roosevelt High) cause for concern?" Possible answers are Yes and No.

But that's a hard question to answer either Yes or No, unless one is content to give an answer so superficial as to be meaningless. The real problem is not where Planned Parenthood wants to move its child killing operation, but the fact that it's even possible for an organization or individual to make a business killing children in Sioux Falls.

Murder can't be administered like that. You can't set up zones in a city where murder is permitted and others where it is excluded. You can't say it's ok to murder children by certain methods but not by others. You can't allow the murder of children up to a certain age but not beyond. Murder is not a pet lion you can keep safely as long as it's fed enough and kept in a cage. Treated as a pet, it will ultimately defy and destroy all hindrances. Its claws will rake its keeper; it's jaws will crush the bones of the one who thought it could be tamed. Murder can't be managed. It must be stopped.

Now if a city or nation has given up, or almost given up, trying to stop it, then peripheral issues related to its presence will come up -- like whether or not Planned Parenthood will be allowed to murder, in the shadow of the high school they might have attended, children who would otherwise graduate in the Class 2018.

I'll tell you what I think: I think my vote in the Argus Leader poll would be interpreted wrongly, so I won't vote in that poll. I think Planned Parenthood should be allowed to move next to the high school. If this abortuary is nearby, the students -- every last one of them a survivor of the American abortion holocaust -- will be able to get there quickly if they are ever roused to righteous anger and to action by the wickedness and stupidity of the generations before them, and by the audacious attempt of the abortionists to treat them as just another market, just another bunch of dumb customers who can be duped into killing their own children.

Visualize this: A thousand high school students standing before the steel doors of the killing place, praying, singing, holding hands and holding signs, grieving for their peers who were murdered in their most dependent and vulnerable time of life, grieving for the children who are put to death still.
