Abby Johnson Quotes

Never trust a decision you don’t want your mother to know about.

If I have this child? Why wasn’t it obvious to me that I already had a child, who was growing inside of me? Once you are pregnant, there is no if. That child, though tiny and in an early stage of development, already exists!

When I’m asked today what someone might have said to get me to change my mind about having either abortion, I tell them it would be this: ‘What do you think would disappoint your parents most? To find out that you’d gotten pregnant, or to learn that you had taken the life of their grandchild?

Never trust a decision you don’t want your mother to know about. How’s that for a brilliant insight?

When pro-lifers buy into the lie that one child is more valuable and worthy of protection than another because it is further along or happens to be a product of a violent and inexcusable sexual act, then we are condoning the violent slaughter of children and, like the people working in POC labs across the country, we have the blood of innocents on our hands. Abortion

My God is in the business of miracles. And my God does not want anyone to suffer in hell. He wants all of his children to come to him—yes, even those of us “monsters” that are in or have been in the abortion industry. Hate comes from hell. Mercy comes from Christ. When we have hate in our hearts, our spirits are damaged. Be careful with your words. Not only are you a living witness of Christ and his truth, but you could put your own soul at risk. “Any one who hates his brother is a murderer, and you know that no murderer has eternal life abiding in him” (1 John 3:15). When we hate, we are no better than those who kill. I

I’d just participated in a death. A death. Not a medical procedure. Not a surgical solution to a life problem. Not the valiant step of a woman exercising her right to make medical choices about her own body. The death of a helpless baby, a baby violently ripped away from the safety of the womb, sucked away to be discarded as biohazard waste.

We cannot place more value on a child because of its stage of development in the womb or because of the circumstances under which it was conceived.

How is it that I made the wrong choices for what seemed to be all the right reasons?

Adoption is an important option that’s being left out of pro-life and pro-choice arguments today. It should not be left out. It should be prominent in these discussions.

Why? Because it conveys a story, however brief, of a child’s life. Just one blip of a heartbeat—one glimpse of the body on the screen—and it’s suddenly impossible to avoid an encounter with the truth. One can try to conjure up all of the arguments for why abortion should be legal, and all the reasons why reality must bend to the will, but they lie impotent against the story of that tiny body and the thumping of that heart.

But he believes in the justice system. He doesn’t understand a man like Cannon can only be killed after he’s buried. Only then will anyone care about evidence. He lines the pockets of too many important and powerful men. Just like Director McEvoy. Just like SSA Johnson. Just like the fucking governor.

see the fear in her eyes turn to anger as she loads her guns again. She pulls out a knife, and I watch as she jumps to stand on her one good leg and throws the knife. Johnson’s eyes widen seconds before the knife sticks into his forehead, but the gunshots ring out faster, and I watch as her body jerks and drops, the bullets hitting her. “No!” I shout again, slamming my fist into the wall as my heart caves in on itself. Then I look at Leonard. “The chopper. Get me to the fucking chopper now!” He shakes his head slowly. “Even if we could get to it, it’d be too late, Logan.” My stomach rolls and my heart implodes in my chest as I slide down the wall, gripping my head as everything in me turns to stone, weighing too much to move. Tears burn against my eyes as I watch Lana weakly climb across the floor, firing again at the deputies. I can’t watch. I can’t watch her die.

Victoria Evans broke up with Kyle because of that. She yelled at him in front of the school. Three months later, Robert Evans was convicted of those murders. Quickest hearing process in the history of murder cases. And two kills occurred the very week after his left hand was broken. He couldn’t have been the murderer. But that didn’t matter. They wouldn’t listen to the science. They only listened to that pompous prick Agent Johnson. Sheriff Cannon just wanted someone to persecute.

What do you think would disappoint your parents most? To find out that you’d gotten pregnant, or to learn that you had taken the life of their grandchild?

His last name was Bag, and his first name was Douche. Sometimes he went by SSA Johnson.
