Hawaii: Obamabot wrecks car after flipping off protesters

Lining the streets outside the President’s Kailua vacation home Saturday, protesters hoped to send Obama a message against the funding of abortion services in health care legislation now under consideration in the House and Senate. Many passing drivers honked their horns in support, but some devotedly pro-Obama motorists had a markedly different reaction.
Jacquelyn Skaf from the Pro-Life Coalition describes Secret Service officers threatening her and her 2 year old daughter with arrest and yelling at a Catholic priest who refused to move from the grass along the roadside.
An Obama devotee pulled up close to her child and yelled “somebody should have aborted you!” Then, according to Skaf, “A lady let go of the wheel of her car to use both hands to flip off the peaceful demonstrators….and crashed into the car in front of her.”
I always find it ironic how quick my secular friends are to mention “karma”. This is “carma”.
A friend recently got me thinking about whether every act in your life is inspired by good or evil. He said humans are the only animals capable of great good or great evil. It’s an interesting thought, and if you put abortion on a good/evil continuum, it’s quite obvious where it falls. I’m tired of hearing wholesale babykilling euphemized as “abortion” or “choice”.
I believe as a matter of faith that the evil side would trick you into believing humans are just technologically-advanced animals, and use this to justify behaviors that would fall on the side of evil as defined by faith(s).
The problem with this is that the nation we’re living in was designed for moral human beings with souls (accountable to God). If you eliminate widespread faith and morality (as the communists have been attempting to do), you must eliminate a lot of the freedoms (as we’re working on) you have in this nation, because the rules change. So the “don’t proselytize me” folks run into a problem when there are no rules (but what government sets).
The whole line of advanced-animal vs humans with souls trails the same slippery slope “we can’t trust you with automatic weapons with the capability of killing many people quickly because some people commit murders” translates to “we can’t trust you with semi-automatic weapons because some people would shoot to kill as quickly as they can pull the trigger” and thus easily translates to “we can’t trust you with a deer hunting rifle or shotgun because the same weapon in the hands of an amoral person (even one prohibited from ownership) could be used to take down his fellow man in an act of murder” to the point where you’re wondering if sharpened sticks will be banned in addition to your non-stabby knives (link).
If you continue down the Nerf-paved path of removing all personal moral responsibility from people’s actions, you no longer reside in a nation, you live in what a consensus of scientists refer to for common animals as “a cage in a zoo” (though anthropologists and 4 out of 5 dentists call it “slavery”). Your zookeeper will be another human, subject to the same failings and potential for good and evil that you are.
So my point in all of this good, evil, animals in zoos, and free-range humanity is that this woman did something evil (cruel statement to child exercising legal and moral right) while supporting something evil (abortion and it’s reprehensible beyond words cousin “abortion funded by the people”), and if she lived in the amoral zoo we appear to be headed for, she probably wouldn’t be able to drive anyway unless she’s part of the ruling class, because cars can be (obviously) used as weapons.
So the moral of the story is: keep both hands on the wheel and your eyes on the road.
