Bystanders Lift Bus Off Pregnant Mom
There is hope for humanity yet.
Link (CBS/ AP) A group of onlookers lifted a 5-ton school bus off a pregnant woman pinned underneath the vehicle. Their quick action saved the woman's baby, but she was killed. Thirty-three-year-old Donnette Sanz was seven months pregnant when she was hit by a van and a small yellow school bus Thursday in the Bronx. Police say the van pushed Sanz in front of the bus, which ran her over. Sanz was crossing the street when the accident occurred. Bystanders on the street, a nearby park and a construction site rushed to the aid of the woman, and managed to lift the bus off her. "I ran out of my house to join 10 people trying to lift up the bus," Cheryl Brown, 47, told the New York Daily News. "At first, we couldn't get it up, so then another 10 people ran over to help, and we got the bus up and the lady out," Brown said. "It was a beautiful thing to watch all those people lift up that bus," she said. Doctors at a nearby hospital saved Sanz' 3-pound son by emergency Caesarean section. He is in critical condition. |

What a way to go, ran over by a short-bus driver. Sad.

I do, too. For sure.
What do pro-abortion people say in this instance? "I hope the kid makes it, unless of course we think his quality of life won't be good, or unless the mom wants him to die, then I hope he dies. I hope he dies real good. Wait a minute, he isn't even a kid, technically. I hope that blob of potential human makes it." I shouldn't speak for them, but I'm curious how they process all these 'unborn kids' dying in accidents sort of thing. What if an unborn kid dies in an accident when the mother is on the way to have an abortion? I am glad they got the bus off her. Wished she could have lived, too. |

Did it ever occur to you that this may be the first case of a child aborting a parent?

It was a can of worms, it's true. I had no idea you were so adamant about threads not taking turns and twists. Again, my mistake. I think a lot about kids like this. I do more than think about them. I like helping them. I don't know any planeteer who would wish this kids harm. Couldn't find one if you tried, probably. That's not a bad thing. It's the right thing to wish this kid well, and we all do. How then, in any sort of sense can this kid who was born prematurely be thought of so differently mere moments before. It was a question that is pretty simple to understand. I probably came off quite heated and agenda driven as you put it, but I'm really quite calm. I think we can all agree that this gal and her kid are the ones who got thrown under the bus. |
