Food for Thought LIFE MATTERS - Senator Mark Johnson, July 2023

Wednesday Oct 04, 2023
Senator Mark Johnson joins Tom Lano to discuss a proposed Bill in Minnesota. It would generate a fundamental right to abortion. This would create a standard that any law passed to protect children, for instance, any sort of a check on abortion at all would be ruled unconstitutional in our state. The extremity of this bill would create an opportunity to intrench abortions in our state. Tune in for this insightful explanation of the ramifications of such an unreasonable law.

Joining Tom in the studio is Bishop Andrew Cozzens to share a very interesting story. At 20 weeks, his mother's water broke. After some tests, a doctor told his mother that her child was severely deformed and encouraged her to terminate her pregnancy. She asked for a new doctor and spent the next four months in bed. Bishop Cozzens expresses his gratefulness for his parents choosing to accept the life of their child no matter what it would look like. He was born a month early and to all appearances was normal, they discovered he was allergic to the amniotic fluid and other things as well which is the only lingering affect of his unusual birth experience. He also recounts his pro-life efforts when in college as a peaceful, non-violent protestor blocking an entrance to an abortion clinic. He knows of children who are alive because their mothers could not enter the building to have an abortion. His experience also granted him opportunities to share the value of life with other people in his process of being jailed and sentenced. He states the importance of consistently standing up for the dignity of every human life because cheapening one life cheapens all life. He urges us to build a culture where all life is reverenced.

Mike Brouse joins Tom Lano in the studio to address concerns he has as a citizen regarding Pro-Life efforts around the nation. He points to the politicization of the issue surrounding the value or perceived value of life, depending on which viewpoint you ascribe to. In his opinion, the progressive narrative is marching toward a police state. DVE's (Domestic Violent Extremists) who have traditionally supported a pro-life stance have been investigated by the FBI, for instance those in the Catholic faith who have advocated for life. Conversely, he has not been able to uncover FBI investigations of perpetrators of crimes against pro-life individuals. He touches on the legalities of injustices and the most serious example of police state tactics: the Mark Houck Case.

On this LIFE MATTERS segment, Dan Gazelka, a 13 year law enforcement veteran from Rampart Defense in Clearbrook MN, brings awareness to the very real threat of sex-trafficking which exists in our rural area. Minnesota is the second largest importer and exporter of Human Trafficking in America because the Duluth harbors. He states grimly: if you have internet and depressed children in your area, you have sex-trafficking. He goes on to cite instances and cases involving children and abusers and the disparity of the consequences compared to the atrocity of the crimes. Dan goes on to report that our state legislature has rejected support of bills which would safeguard our children and require crimes against children to show up on background checks. He encourages healthy, consistent parental involvement in the lives of their children to safeguard against social contact which might involve adults posing as children. Pursuing education and hands-on training to equip parents and children can be very effective when seconds matter and police are minutes away.
