Duggar Family Forms Pro-Life Coalition to Fight "Abortion Holocaust"

Jim Bob and Michelle Duggar of the popular TLC series 19 Kids and Counting are forming a coalition of pro-life groups to help fight against abortion. The idea stems from their recent trip to the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum in Washington, DC; to the Duggars, abortion is itself a holocaust. “A couple of weeks after we went to the Holocaust Museum it dawned on us that there is a holocaust taking place right here in America!” the Duggars wrote. “More than 56 million lives have been destroyed in our country! That is over 4,000 babies being killed and 4,000 women being wounded each day!” “We talked and prayed about what our family could do to make a difference in saving the lives of the unborn. We ended up contacting the national pro-life groups.” “We asked them to all work together and pool their incredible resources to motivate and activate many people to get involved in ending abortion in America.” The Duggars called Dan Pennell, CEO of WMtek, a Fort Pierce, Fla., based web development company, who immediately caught the vision, Jim Bob said. Working with Jim Bob and Mathew Staver of Liberty Counsel, Dan formed the coalition of pro-life groups that has become what is now Life United. Its partners: The Duggar family; LIFE International; L.E.A.R.N; Living Waters; Liberty Counsel; National Center for Life and Liberty; Family Research Council; The Justice Foundation. “Life United exists not only to educate people with the reality of abortion in our generation, but to do something about it,” the group said in a statement. “Our partners have come together with their resources to create the tools that will help motivate and enable others to value and support human life.” “Americans are being forced to fund a Hitler-kind of killing machine,” the group says, calling the last four decades “the 40 most bloody years in America.” “We are committed to end abortion in our lifetime. Abortion is the most senseless, inhumane form of child abuse one can imagine. It is time to restore a culture of life.” In less controversial news, check out the Duggar Family tater tot casserole recipe . Whatever you think of their politics, everyone can agree that’s awesome.

I still cannot believe that I am FINALLY able to post my very own MBE! It’s so surreal. The experience was great, but the memories are even better. I decided to make my MBE into a video because I didn’t think that anyone would want to read mine since it would seriously be a novel. Believe Tour Detroit on 11/21/2012. -@isaraursum  Originally posted here: I still cannot believe that I am FINALLY able to post my very…

The day before the concert (Friday) was the day that they…

The day before the concert (Friday) was the day that they emailed the BieberFever contest winners, and to say I was nervous and scared was an understatement. That day we were also driving to San Antonio. I heard that around 7 p.m. they email the winners. We were driving at that time and there wasn’t any wifi so there wasn’t a way that I could check my email. We stopped at Burger King around 8 and I proceeded to check my email. My heart sunk when I didn’t see anything from BieberFever. I just got back in the car and started crying . I was so upset because I had gotten my hopes up and I actually thought I would win. I remember thinking to myself, “I probably don’t deserve this. I don’t deserve to meet him.” I cried the whole way to San Antonio. Then I got to my aunt’s house and my Ipod started BLOWING UP. I was so confused. I went onto Twitter and saw Laura’s (@BieberParadise) message. “LESLIE I WON OMFG” “WE’RE MEETING JUSTIN WE’RE MEETING JUSTIN TOMORROW” I read that and instantly burst into sobs. My mom read Laura’s message and laughed, hugging me. I went into the restroom and sobbed my eyes out. I couldn’t believe it. I was freaking out. “LESLIE YOURE MEETING JUSTIN BIEBER AFTER 4 YEARS” was all that was running through my mind at the moment. That night I cried myself to sleep because I was just so happy and excited. I curled my hair and wore peach colored pants, a white tank top and a sleeveless denim jacket. As soon as I arrived to the arena, I started looking for Laura. We met at the box office and we stood in line to get our wristbands. We showed the girl the confirmation email and Laura’s ID but she said that there wasn’t any wristbands under Laura’s name. We were close to crying. We spotted the lady in charge of M&G’s and I told her our situation. “Just keep checking the box office girls, they’re sending up more wristbands. And if you two don’t get your wristbands just find me and I’ll try to do something about it.” After that we checked the box office 3 more times. The fourth try we FINALLY got our wristbands. We started crying and hugging each other. We got inside the little room and I saw DAN KANTER. He was with this group of girls. I shyly asked him for a picture and he said, “One sec let me just visit.” I frowned a bit and then an elevator opened and KENNITH HAMILTON WAS THERE. A group of girls got into the elevator and they left, when the elevator came to get us we were in an elevator with DAN KANTER. I was so shocked. I then had a YOLO moment and asked him if we could sing him the Dan Kanter Song. “No I hear that a million times.” We all laughed.  Then we went into another room, walking to the very end of the line. It was huge. We were in the line for about an hour before it started moving quickly. We saw Kenny again and asked for a picture. I smiled really big when he said yes. When we finally got to the beginning of the line they asked us to get in groups of 6. The people in front of us and Laura and I got in a group. It hit us really hard that in a matter of seconds, we were meeting our idol. The curtains opened for our group and Laura and I ran in. I went in first and looked up at Justin. He was right there. Right in front of me. The first thing I noticed was his jawline. It’s so perfect. His hair looked like heaven and oh my God.. he was wearing a plaid shirt and a white tank with blue jeans. He’s petite but tall. I stood next to him and I wrapped my arm around his waist immediately. I said “Hi Justin oh my god” and he smiled, saying “Hey guys!” His arm slipped around my waist and I was in shock. JUSTIN WAS TOUCHING ME. I kept staring at him, he’s so perfect in real life. I heard the camera man counting and I smiled widely. After that I turned to Justin and said, “I love you so much.” He laughed and said, “Aw I love you guys to.” We kinda group hugged but his arm was still around me. The security pushed us out and I heard him say, “Thanks girls!” As soon as we walked out we just burst into tears. Laura and I were shaking, crying and just screaming things like “HE’S REAL” “HE WAS TOUCHING ME” When we got out we found my mom and I was sobbing into her shoulder.  Laura and I just kept on crying for about 30 minutes straight. Then we got to our seats and Cody Simpson started first, he wasn’t as bad as i thought he would be. Then Carly came out, she was just perfect. At 8:40 p.m., a countdown started. It started at 10 minutes and as soon as it got to 50 seconds, I jumped up and started screaming my heart out. It hit 00:00:00 and the arena went WILD. The concert began with AATW and ended with Baby. The concert was perfect and amazing. I cant even explain how amazing it was. After the concert I was crying so much. My dad asked “Why are you crying” and I started sobbing “Dad I met him, he’s real dad.” I then called my friend Samantha and my cousin Kristy. I was crying to them over the phone ranting about how perfect justin is and how i met him. The whole night was just a dream come true. I had finally met my idol after 4 years. It was the best day of my entire life . If you ever think about giving up on meeting him, please don’t. I thought it was impossible to ever meet him now look. I just met him yesterday. Anything is possible. Never give up. Dreams really do come true. I know its hard not to give up, but in the end everything truly does pay off. January 12,2013 is a day I will never forget. – @BiebersAlcohol Excerpt from: The day before the concert (Friday) was the day that they…

Jesus Take The Wheel: 22-Year-Old Man Dead After His 19-Year-Old Sister Accidentally Shoots Him!!!

The two had been out drinking for New Year’s and decided to play around with a gun …posing for pics and posting them up on Facebook when the weapon accidentally went off. According to The Daily Mail : A 19-year-old woman accidentally shot dead her brother while posing with a gun for Facebook photos on New Year’s Eve. Manuel Ortiz died instantly after being shot in the head at about 6am on Monday morning. Family and friends wept as his body was carried from his apartment in Phoenix, Arizona, where the shooting took place. Police said 22-year-old Ortiz and his sister Savannah Ramirez arrived back at the home they shared on New Year’s Eve after spending the night drinking. They were with two other people when someone in the group pulled out the handgun to take photos with it. As the 19-year-old posed and played around with the weapon it went off striking Ortiz in the head, according to ABC15. He was pronounced dead at the scene. It is not known if the group knew the handgun was loaded. Police say she has been questioned and released pending further investigation in the case. Phoenix Police Sgt Steve Martos said the victim’s sister would likely be charged with manslaughter if tests conclude she had alcohol in her system. ‘Every New Year’s Eve, this particular sister is going to be thinking about this for the rest of her life on how…drinking overnight, playing with a gun and now shoots and kills her brother,’ said Phoenix Police Sgt Steve Martos. Friends said the shooting was a terrible accident. One friend who wanted to remain anonymous said she wanted to remember Ortiz as a ‘kind, funny guy he was’. ‘He was a very close friend to everybody. He was just always there and it’s sad because one second he’s here and the other he’s not.’ ‘Every time he saw somebody sad or down he would be right there making jokes so you could be happy. Even if he was just having a hard time he was always there for someone,’ said the friend. Authorities are looking into who owns the gun. On both Manuel and his sister’s Facebook pages there are numerous shots of them posing with guns and making gang symbols. SMH. This mans sister will have to live with this for the rest of her life. Stop tryin’ to impress people with your thugged out pics you post up on social media folks! Images via facebook

My Bieber experience was on October 23rd, 2012. My dream came…

My Bieber experience was on October 23rd, 2012. My dream came true that day when I met and saw Justin in concert for the first time in my life. I’m a member of Bieber Fever and I had entered the contest to win meet & greet passes since I had been trying for four years to meet and see him , but I didn’t think I had any chance of winning since there were so many people entered in it. But to my surprise, I got an email the night before the concert saying that I was one of the ten winners and that I was meeting Justin before the concert. I cried for three hours that night because I couldn’t believe what had just happened to me, I was in pure shock. The next day, my friend and I went to the venue early to pick up our meet and greet passes from will call and while we were just waiting there in line, Kenny came through and accidentally ran into my shoulder really hard. He turned around really quick and rubbed my arm and told me he was really sorry about what had happened and then continued walking away. I couldn’t believe that I had actually just talked to Kenny and I was practically already in tears, and that was before I even saw Justin. After we picked up our meet and greet passes, we waited in line for about an hour before we went inside to meet Justin. When my group was at the front of the line waiting to go in, I gave one of the crew members the scrapbook I made for Justin. He told me that Justin reads all of the stuff his fans give him, and that he would definitely be reading it. Kenny’s head popped out of the curtain for a few seconds later before we went in, and I was like “Kenny do you remember me? You ran into me at will call.” And he responded literally a second later saying “Yeah I remember, I’m so sorry about that. I was running cause I’m trying to lose a few pounds.” I just laughed and told him it was okay and that he was perfect how he is. Finally, we went inside to meet Justin. The girls in my group knew how much Justin meant to me and how long I had been waiting for this moment and agreed to let me stand by Justin , which I was more than thankful for. I got on Justin’s left side (right next to him in the pink shirt!) while he was hugging one of the other girls and we all lined up for the picture. I’ll never forget the first thing Justin said before we took the picture; “Hey guys, I just ripped my pants.” All the other girls and I just laughed and I said “Again?” Justin just looked at me, smiled and laughed before wrapping his arm around my waist for the picture. Once we took the picture, Justin gave me the best hug I’ve ever gotten. The only words I could say were “I love you so much, Justin,” and he responded with “I love you, too.” I couldn’t say anything else before we were basically pushed out of the room, but I was happy I at least got to tell him that. As soon as we walked out of the room, I was crying harder than I ever have in my life. I had finally met Justin after four years of waiting, and I felt so blessed that it had happened to me. It was truly the most amazing day of my life, and there’s no way I’m ever going to forget it. I never thought I’d meet Justin in a million years, but I guess that just goes to show that dreams do come true. Never say never!  -Amanda (@stratfordtrust) Read more here: My Bieber experience was on October 23rd, 2012. My dream came…
