Federal officials indicted fifteen people for illegally trafficking body parts. The entire body fetched as much as twelve-hundred dollars; heads went for two-fifty and set of wings nine-hundred. Yes, wings. They were selling body parts of eagles. And they’re experiencing the full wrath of the American legal system — unlike Planned Parenthood for selling aborted baby body parts. The irony of the eagle situation compared with the aborted babies is astounding. Undercover informants posed as buyers to purchase eagle feathers from the alleged criminals, and officials are using this evidence to prosecute. But the pro-life informants were turned on by the authorities who sided with the profiteers. Join me in praying officials at least do for innocent unborn babies what’s being done for eagles.
