To Whom It May Concern:
I find it utterly deplorable that when I typed in "Kermit Gosnell" into your newspaper's website search bar, I was told via automated web message, "Your search - Kermit Gosnell - did not match any documents."
Why Kermit Gosnell--who operated out of a filthy clinic that had not been inspected in 10 years; utilizing old, rusted, unsanitary medical equipment; having his unregistered, unlicensed, uneducated staff administer drugs to patients--often resulting in said patients delivering dead or alive babies in the waiting room (hence the blood stained carpet and furniture that populated the room); whose sadistic, unadulterated evil practice of "snipping" the spinal cords (essentially decapitating) of babies born alive in his "live-birth" abortions with scissors; who kept severed baby feet in jars throughout his clinic; whose negligent practices led to the drug overdose death of Karnamaya Monger--is not in your newspaper every day--if not on the front page!--is beyond me.
There are very few things that could possibly be put on par with the atrocities unraveling every day of the Gosnell murder trial. The only thing I can think of is turning a blind eye to those atrocities.
This trial goes far beyond the spats between the Pro-Choice and Pro-Life crowds. The human rights abuses that were permitted to occur unchecked in a country where every other type of medical office and clinic, restaurants, bars, and tattoo parlors are heavily regulated and regularly inspected, is staggering. It goes without saying that any woman walking out of Gosnell's clinic was worse off than when she had walked in. Gosnell, Planned Parenthood, and others may argue for infanticide; but any other person with an ounce of moral fiber would recognize Gosnell's practice of decapitating live, viable babies that had been born alive as unnecessarily cruel and malignant.
And that you are not covering this trial--that you are not doing your duty to inform the general public of the savagery taking place in our backyard--is shameful.
