The Abortion debate always makes everyone look like a bunch of nutjobs.

 

If caring about people makes me a nut-job, I can only hope I never fall off that list.

Almost 10-years years ago, I met Rabbi H. who is Orthodox (Chabad-Lubavitch)...

Our meeting was strictly by chance.  I was walking in Ridgmar Mall, and 2 skinheads were stolling around, and I heard them mocking someone who I couldn't see (I was coming down the escalator).

The kids were laughing and saying, "look at that f---ing Jew, you sorry b-----d, Hitler should have finished you kikes off" 

They were following him, and gave the impression that they were about to take their mocking to another level.

Me being who I am, stepped in, and said, "Hey, I'm a Jew, you got a problem with me too?  Step on up punk-ass"

I was a little more than an impossing figure back then to say the least... I was the kind of guy people avoided when they walked down the street.  I got in their faces and repeated myself.

The one guy says, "no sir, we love Jews, we ain't got a problem" and his friend says, "damn dude, this guy is crazy, let's get out of here".

After they took off, the Rabbi asked me, "Boruch Hashem, how wonderful it is for me to run into such a big Jew here in the middle of Texas to help me".

And I told him, "I'm not Jewish" and he asked me, "then why did you get involved?"

I told him, "right is right, and wrong is wrong.. what kind a person would I be if I turned my back on someone in need?"

We've been friends ever since.

The point is, both he and the skinheads thought I was crazy for getting involved in a problem that wasn't my own... but I ask, isn't it more crazy to ignore those who need your help?

The unborn child has no one to help them... if someone doesn't want them, they can be terminated legally at will.  That is a tragedy. 

A "nutjob" is a person who keeps their mouth shut out of fear... they're more worried about what people will think about them than saving another person's life.  I can't think of how many times in my life when I've seen people ignore the needy and refuse to aid the helpless... what you call a nutjob, I call a hero... because they fear nothing, and place needs of others above themselves.  So if your definition of a nutjob is someone who speaks up when others are silent, then I'm honored to be placed upon such a list.
