Allen West’s Fiery Anti-Abortion Speech: ‘This Fight Shall Not End Until We Protect Our Unborn’

On Monday, Rep. Allen West (R-FL) delivered a fervent speech at the March for Life rally in Washington, D.C. West, who opened his impassioned address by reading from a devotional called “In God We Still Trust,” invigorated the audience with references to Ronald Reagan, Abraham Lincoln and Thomas Jefferson.

Rep. Allen West Delivers Anti Abortion March for Life Speech

Rep. Allen West (Florida)

In reading a selection from the devotional, West shared the Bible verse within it – 1 Timothy 6:13, which reads, “In the sight of God, who gives life to everything, and of Christ Jesus, who while testifying before Pontius Pilate made the good confession, I charge you” (NIV).

The brief text that West read also referenced Reagan’s past anti-abortion commentary. The former president once wrote:

…we cannot survive as a free nation when some men decide that others are not fit to live and should be abandoned to abortion or infanticide. My Administration is dedicated to the preservation of America as a free land, and there is no cause more important for preserving that freedom than affirming the transcendent right to life of all human beings, the right without which no other rights have any meaning.

Based on reaction from the audience, these powerful themes resonated. West concluded his speech with the following words of encouragement for the protesters:

“You are here today because Thomas Jefferson said you have an unalienable right that comes form your creator. First and foremost is life. And that’s what we stand here — that’s what I stand here for…and may God bless you today. This fight shall not end until we protect our unborn.”

    I don’t want children. If I should become pregnant, I’m going to have an abortion. You can throw morals and religion at me all you want. I don’t believe it. Under an Alan West presidency, would I be thrown in a prison and forced to carry a child in restraints that I didn’t want? Do anything to protect the unborn, and the fetus carrier’s rights go out the window? No thanks. Same with Santorum. Some minds (like mine) won’t be swayed on abortion. What are you going to do with people like me?

      It isn’t a matter of religion, it is a matter of common sense. The life is there. Who are you to rob life from another creature? If a child becomes inconvenient we can’t just terminate its existence. Casey Anthony did that and she is universally recognized as a monster. If she had killed Caylee in the womb she would be a feminist hero. Absurd!!! No human should be able to erase a life just because they find it inconvenient. The further we travel down this road we become more removed from decency and descend into hedonism. No one will be safe. You might be the one that is found to be inconvenient and subsequently erased from human memory.

      If you murder your child you should go to prison. What part of MURDER do you not understand?

      You have your “choice” The choice is not to have sex in the first place. If you get pregnant and kill that child you have taken a life and you should be in prison along with the people who performed the abortion…. PERIOD end of story.,

      But of course you have Roe Vs Wade that LEGALIZED MURDER….so you are ok as far as the Judicial System goes. You are not alright with God though…Too bad for your silly belief system.

If you tell me that I have cancer, but say I must not accept treatment because “its gods plan”, I will darn sure fight and break the law to get treatment. The same thing with abortion.

      It comes as no surprise that you admit you don’t believe in morals. It is that which allows you to reach a level of selfishness which allows you to say without a hint of shame that you don’t want children and plan to kill any that come along.

      Secondly, your premise is wrong from the start. Protecting the rights of the unborn does nothing, NOTHING to infringe upon the rights or choices of the mother. It isn’t a choice you want, you always have choices. What you want is choice without consequence. I don’t much like having noisy neighbors, and I could at any time choose to go next door and shoot them dead. But I will suffer the consequence of that choice, which in this case tends to be prison.

      So would you be forced to bring that baby to term? No, absolutely not. You can still choose to abort. But you will pay the consequences of that choice, which in this case should be prison. Just like any other murder.

      @Leperus –

      I’d like to give you a less moral and more logical answer, though it’s hard given your own statements and the responses. Both AndyNC and Ghandi have clear elements of truth that rebut your position.

      However, the bottom line is not one of the immorality of your desire to have any potential child cut up in tiny bits and sucked out of you through a hose. The bottom line is not the froth-mouthed claims of the militant feminists who scream about fascism from good men such as Colonel West while turning a blind eye to Islamist rape, female mutilation, and slavery practiced even in the U.S.

      The bottom line is that Roe v. Wade was bad law and a grotesque miscarriage of justice, confiscating rights which belong to the states and fabricating a privacy aspect to manslaughter as if part of sensible jurisprudence. The decision to allow abortion should never have been turned into a Federal issue, and is maintained through this tissue of lies by heavy-breathing leftists in order to keep Planned Parenthood bursting with taxpayer dollars.

      Obamacare arguments were heard over tax funding of abortions – what stupidity! Taxpayers have been funding abortions for years now, and Planned Parenthood is quite interested in making certain that their snouts remain in that trough.

      Leperus – You have no problem killing an innocent child whose father decided to commit rape or incest on you? So you respond to rape by murdering an innocent? Why not carry the child to term and then place him/her up for adoption… there are many who are willing to adopt.

      2012OBAMA2012 who said “Only God can judge you. The problem is that so many conservatives like Santorum, feel that they are God. Don’t get that God gives everyone free will. We all know the laws of the bible and we all know right from wrong. These Extremists want to control you while in the same breath talking about wanting govt out of our lives”

      Tho God will judge all sin in his final court, He also gives us jurisdiction over obvious crimes done here on Earth…. one of them being murder. Since modern medical science has proven that the fetus (as you and Leperus would call it) is in fact a human being with its own set of DNA and with its ability to feel pain from 8 wks on, I would say that we can judge the killer of this unborn human being to be a murderer. Since God gave us jurisdiction over such crimes, we are morally obligated to do so. You may claim the right to free will. But that extends only to the line where someone else’s life is concerned… which in this case is the unborn child, from conception to birth.

      We “extremists” don’t want to control… only to protect the living… be it mother or child.

How does killing a baby bring emotional healing to anyone? Look at the stats and you will see that the vast majority of babies are killed out of CONVENIENCE, not for other reasons.

      Well, friend, if you murder your baby then it’s 1st Degree Murder, read the law. Prison, no, sterilization, yes. If you become pregnant with ALL of the birth control and medical procedures available to stop it, you must carry the baby to term doing the right thing for the HUMAN LIFE you have created. If you have no morality like you just wrote, then you should know the law. Taking a life unnaturally without having been threatened is murder, and the drive and decision to go to Planned Parenthood makes it 1st Degree, Premeditated Murder and that is the cold, hard fact.

      The best part of the whole abortion argument is that if you‘re a man who doesn’t pay for his children, you‘re called a deadbeat dad and you’re one of the lowest forms of life imaginable. But if you’re a woman who kills her children, hey that’s cool! She’s just exercising her right to choose. This from the same people who scream like banshees about equality.

      Here’s some more oddities. If I get drunk and hop in my car and run over a pregnant woman, I am likely to get charged with manslaughter if she miscarries as a result. But why? It’s just a clump of cells? There was a story on the news recently about a woman who attacked a pregnant woman, cut her open, and stole her unborn baby, which naturally died shortly thereafter. She was charged with two counts of murder. But why? It was just a clump of cells.

      Let’s be honest, everybody knows it’s not just a clump of cells. Everybody knows it’s a human being in there. And there’s countless examples out there proving that even pro-choice lefties really do know that it’s a baby in there. They just rationalize it all away because they‘re the most obnoxiously selfish people on God’s green earth, so much so that the life of their own child takes a back seat to, as Obama put it, living out THEIR dreams.

Believe me, it will change your mind. You see this is the misconception many women believe, that being able to have an abortion gives a woman power, but in fact, it does just the opposite. It leaves women feeling violated, lied to, and for the rest of their lives they will have to remember the life they did not protect. Women should not have a right to determine the outcome of a life created inside of them. Their moral responsibility is to protect and carry the life inside of them for nine months until that life is able to breathe on its own. The only life women have a right to determine whether or not it exists is their OWN life.

      Leperus. If you become pregnant,and you don’t want children, the moral thing to do is to bring the baby to term, and give it up for adoption. If you accept that life begins at conception, and science says that it does; that the fetus is a being with its own DNA, completely dependent on the woman for life support, struggling with all its being to survive, the right choice is clear. We as a society have been so brainwashed into believing that a fetus is not a life, we have become so desensitized and dehumanized, that many of us don’t see abortion as killing. But it is, and if you do have an abortion, you will be cursed with the knowledge that you killed your innocent baby, whether you acknowledge it or not. Your choice is between giving birth and adoption, or killing. Please consider this before you make such a decision.

      For the love of GOD, this “my tax dollars are funding abortions, grr, grr, grr” line is getting REALLY OLD–excuse me, but there’s a little thing called “the Hyde amendment,” it‘s happened since the 70’s, and since it’s been a thing, your taxes (on the federal level at least, I don’t know what your state does) DON’T pay for abortions. Why don’t you look into it and educate yourself rather than take my word for it…or don’t, I don’t care either way.

      I personally think tax dollars SHOULD support abortions–if we can collectively force taxpaying pacifists to pay, despite that fact they we spend far and away (by leaps and bounds, and orders of magnitude) more on defense and improving our ability to kill people further, faster, and more efficiently, (and don’t get me wrong, there’s some utility in that, but it is only helpful as a deterrent and correctional, and not constructively in and of itself) than we do anything else, then we are perfectly legitimate in compelling taxpayers to pay for abortions regardless of their stance on it, presuming their is a democratic consensus in the government to create such funding.

Think of the cost nature paid to establish each of the two of them–how can ANY intelligent person say that that which is BROUGHT ABOUT AND DEPENDENT UPON the mother, which cannot survive and independent existence, is of GREATER VALUE AND SIGNIFICANCE? It is utter nonsense–is ridiculous as it would be to assert that we are somehow of GREATER VALUE AND SIGNIFICANCE than God, because we were/are dependent upon God for existence (presuming God is real, that doesn’t many any sense to say either–OBVIOUSLY, the dependent is the inferior in power and perfection, and the independent the superior).

      The problem with ALL of these arguments (God will Judge, You have no morals, *fun fact, I’ve managed to NEVER murder ANYONE*) is that if you have your way, you good people are forcing me to do something against my will. I will avoid pregnancy as long as I can, BUT, if something should happen, you actually think I should be imprisoned to save a non-viable fetus (and yes, up until 24 weeks, the fetus is not viable). You all must remember, there are people that don’t want to live, believe, or think like you do. Yet, we all live in this country. Don’t make decisions for me and I will give you the same courtesy.

      God gives all of us a free will, so you have to do what you must do, and suffer the consequences in this life or the next. An innocent baby also has the inalienable, God given right to life. Considering that you have not asked a “doctor”, or anyone else to help you commit murder yet, per your post, please think about what you are saying. You have a free will. If you put yourself in a position to become a mother, it is your decision. Please think carfully about it, because once done, and murder is committed, it cannot be retracted, and you will sit in judgement someday before God.

      I don’t want children. If I should become pregnant, I’m going to have an abortion. You can throw morals and religion at me all you want. I don’t believe it. Under an Alan West presidency, would I be thrown in a prison and forced to carry a child in restraints that I didn’t want? Do anything to protect the unborn, and the fetus carrier’s rights go out the window? No thanks. Same with Santorum. Some minds (like mine) won’t be swayed on abortion. What are you going to do with people like me?

      Hmmmmm.

      Well, believe it or not, this same “logic” was used post “Dred Scott” and slaves were “property” to be handled as determined by the slave master.

      Roe v Wade is crumbling under the weight of its own ignore, perpetually frozen to 1973 – that’s 1973 medical knowledge and facts. Would you trust a doctor who’s knowledge ended at 1973? Medical facts and 3-D ultrasounds are met with RHETORIC…spewed by hard-core pro-aborts like this individual. An individual who experienced every phase of life before birth, following his/her conception.

      So any level of logic, facts or argumentation beyond the cliches and slogans of the 1970′s will not change “Sparky’s” mind…what little there is.

What I object to is the denial of some pro-choice people that abortion is the killing of life. Life starts at conception, when the gametes meet. You should see some time lapse films showing development. If you should ever become pregnant, you should also at least be honest enough to acknowledge that you will actually stop a beating heart, the heart of your own child. I can’t imagine the pathology required to make a woman comfortable with that.

      Since you don’t want a child then maybe you could practice not getting pregnant in the 1st place. If someone needs to explain to you how that is accomplished, then you obviously need more advice than I could possibly give you. Maybe you could start by asking your parents instead of some liberal professor or online expert.
      As far as getting thrown into prison. Let me ask you. Is an unborn child alive in the womb?A beating heart should give you a clear answer to that great mystery.
      Do people go to prison for murdering children that are alive? I guess it would be kind of hard to murder someone who isn’t alive huh?
      Lets see…. abortion = murder. Murder = prison.

      The marketplace has a mechanism where expectant moms, who would prefer not to engage in the post birth parts of parenting, bid their child out to adoptive parents.

      Choice is then on all three sides:
      1. the expectant mom,
      2. the adoptive parents
      3. the baby.

Only our Maker has the Power to judge if we are right or wrong, and deal with us accordingly. I’m not and never will be, affiliated with any man made religion. I am a spiritual being, knowing from where I came and where I shall return. Those who oppose abortion are surely not spiritual, only religious. For if they were spiritual, they would understand that two souls cannot abide in the same body. Each of us are seperate souls housed in this earthly body for our time here. Does it not make sense to everyone that if the soul leaves the body upon death and that last breath, the it quite possible does not enter the body until birth and that first breath? I was pregnant four times and gave birth to four children, abortion wasn’t an option to me as my children were wanted. But I thank the law (roe v wade) that gives every female that option. Who am I to tell another human being what they can or cannot do, espicially with their own body, their on life?? I am also a science/biology earth based individual as well. Pregnancy is a biological event in human existance. So, you, Balthazor, prison? Really? Shall we imprison The Powers that be for all those miscarriages? Act of God or biological?

      Our founders did not include in the definition of inalienable Right the right to kill another human being. Since medical sci has proven the unborn child to be human, and since abortion is therefore an act of killing another human being and since the gov’t has jurisdiction in protecting human life and punishing those who take it unjustifiably, then it IS NOT fascism to tell someone not to kill a human being. The problem is that our national law and the Sup Ct that interprets it, has not caught up with medical science, and there are many in high and influential places who are trying their hardest to keep it that way. Rest assured though that unless our leaders in Wash.

      “especially when the POTUS publically calls for MORE baby-killing in America” Really exactly when and how does that. Overstating your perceptions through inflammatory statements merely communicates that lack of conviction you have regarding your own position.

      @ ashestoashes:

      I’m not aquainted with every opinion or policy that Mr. West subscribes to. My post said nothing about “nation-building” or any of the crap you launched into. You are off topic. This article is about his stance on baby-killing. He’s against it. So am I. Apparently, so are you. It’s not enough for you to agree with that? No, you have to make sure that every little thing that Mr. West says and does is in complete harmony with you. Only then will you acknowledge that he is right for speaking out against abortion.

      That attitude is one of the big reasons why the message of the Church in America is so splintered and divided. Get over yourself.

    Conservatives are really something. They’re all in favor of the unborn. They will do anything for the unborn. But once you’re born, you’re on your own. Pro-life conservatives are obsessed with the fetus from conception to nine months. After that, they don’t want to know about you. They don’t want to hear from you. No nothing. No neonatal care, no day care, no head start, no school lunch, no food stamps, no welfare, no nothing. If you’re preborn, you’re fine; if you’re preschool, you’re screwed. Conservatives don’t give a crap about you until you reach military age. Then they think you are just fine. Just what they’ve been looking for. Conservatives want live babies so they can raise them to be dead soldiers. These people aren’t pro-life, they’re anti-woman. It’s as simple as it that. They believe a woman’s primary role is to function as a brood mare for the state.

What about the capacity of the child to love another? The unborn child has already got the love from God… and the ability to pass this on to others… I mourn for all the unborn who were not allowed to love, because their life was ended in abortion!

      Well, sadly, you’re greatly misinformed (and/or haven’t been around prolife, Conservatives) and obviously are among those that have been willingly brainwashed by the arrogant, anti-God liberal/Progressive types. No excuse since the truth is out there on the internet, etc.

      I was a volunteer pregnancy crisis center counselor. Everyone I’ve met that are prolife are very caring people – both for the unborn AND the mother – volunteering their time & money to counsel, help the moms and then arranging for adoption if they choose to keep the baby & are not “judgemental”. Many churches have ministries to care for them as well. There are these free clinics all over the country and enough people who want to adopt these “unwanted” ones.
      Our ideology, which agrees with the Founders, Constitution, etc. believe in the wisdom and truths regarding human nature and God – and believe this is the way to best handle these things. Do more research on that with an open mind. It’s mostly common sense & knowledge of human nature & history. Re wars, that is debatable – many agree we have gone into too many unnecessary wars – we hope to correct. However, it’s a truism that “peace comes through strength” & need a strong military in order to insure no one attacks us. Another necessity is a “moral” nation in order to keep a free republic, as the Founders declared. http://www.wallbuilders.com

      Take a breath GER…

      It sounds a LOT like you are saying that once a baby is born, conservatives are not interested in filling the new child’s life with entitlements. Welfare? Food Stamps? Day Care? School Lunch? I mean, c’mon… Don’t the parents have a role in your world? Are you saying that if they can’t get entitlements they are better off dead?

      When my wife and I were in high school, she became pregnant at age 15. We were supposed to abort our child, but do not believe in infanticide. Today our child is 37 years old, has a masters degree in project management and is currently working on his doctorate in counseling. He volunteers every day working with local youth who are in trouble. He is changing the world we live in. He lives because we gave him every opportunity our young hearts and hands could provide. That’s better than killing him,,,hmmm??

      Isn’t it enough to say that one in four African American babies dies the unnatural death of abortion? That’s 25%!! Planned Parenthood should be held accountable, but as long as they pave the way with previously mentioned entitlements, GER is willing to look the other way (and pay for abortions too!)

      @ g.e.r.

      God made families (including extended families) and faith families to support all humans, unborn, born and through life to natural death. We humans messed that up with the industrial revolution, feminist pursuits and too much “rugged individualism”! We move far from family and friends, we take mothers away from their children letting others (who we barely know!) raise our children. We have allowed feminists to “neuter” our boys and men, and have asked men whose responsibility it is to lead the family (with love for their wife and family) and asked them to help with “motherly tasks” just because they can. We isolate our seniors and elderly in their own empty homes and/or insitutions instead of giving them the honor they deserve and receiving their wisdom and help in the raising of future generations while pooling resources so that the need for high or double salaries is reduced.

      With few exceptions, this was NOT SO for over 1800 years since the birth of Christ and for at least 5000 years before that!

      We are our own worst enemy, and we won’t even self-reflect to see what we have done and are still doing, killing the “next generation.”

      We’re so worried about “mother earth,” that we don’t even consider FATHER GOD and his wishes for us. The Amish model, far from perfect (no perfection on this earth), is a model to review, generations helping generations for the good of all.

      We need a movement to convince women of the dignity, value and beauty of motherhood. There is no other job more important in a woman’s life than raising excellent children. If you value life in any way, how can you possibly say working as a dental assistant or teacher etc. is more valuable than raising a productive, sane, well-adjusted, functioning human being? There are countless women who have raised non-functioning children who deep inside know trying to have it all at once wasn’t worth it. No matter how many church or school programs you make, nothing in world can take the place of a hands-on, concerned mother. Government, school and religion were never meant to be and should never have been suggested as substitutes for a loving mother.

      First, people aren’t “worried” about his tax returns; they’re curious. Nothing has shown he’s unfit to be president; but they have shown that he’s a hypocrite (bashing Gingrich for Freddie and Fannie while he himself had invested in them; showing that he pays an incredibly low income tax rate of 13.9%, etc). And it’s not the left-wing media demanding it; it’s his opponents in the GOP. The media, of course, is happy to quote our candidates as they shred the party’s chances for the presidential election.

      @Gonzo
      And I think any of our present choices are better than the current President. I don’t know why everyone is attacking everyone else, between Romney, Santorum, and Gingrich, and the Paulbots are attacking all of them. IMO, it’s childish to say, “if my guy doesn’t win, I am taking my toys, going home, and will not vote.”
      We need to get behind whoever wins the Republican nomination and defeat the usurper, who is going to finish destroying our country with another 4 years. Hopefully, there won’t be a third-party spoiler.

      I’m with you Anon. I agree with Paul on 85% of what he says, maybe more and I would be happy to supporrt him in the general. I think he would lose but, I would send him money and vote for him. Everyone should do the same for every candidate or it’s four more for Obama.

    As long as we are willing to kill our children and not bat an eye, nothing matters. We need to go back to defending the unborn. We lost our moral compass with Roe vs Wade.

      Sure if he didn’t vote to increase the debt ceiling, indefinite detention and the extension of the patriot act. How do those things fit into the Tea Party agenda again?

      West did indeed vote for NDAA which is an affront to the constitution,I can’t believe he he did that because he took the oath to defend the constitution.

      For someone who thinks Obama is so terrible for the nation,he sure helped give the Dictator a lot of power. Obama and his cronies think the Tea Party are terrorist.Alan gave him the right to kill them and detain them without 4th amendment rights.
