I resonate deeply with a desire to defend those who can't defend themselves. I resonate deeply with a desire to protect those who are made in the image of God. I resonate deeply with the desire to put a stop to the hatred that poisons our culture and is often targeted at those who are "different".
As a father of a black daughter, I am already bracing myself for the first time when she hears a racist comment come her way. God help me.
But I also and deeply saddened that there is outrage over a comment made in a restaurant but there is very little outrage over the fact that 90% of children with Down Syndrome don't ever have a chance at life because they are aborted. You read that right. 90%. If you are over 35, ever wonder why you don't see as many people with Down Syndrome anymore? It's because they are being legally killed because they are simply a "life worth sacrificing".
I am so thankful that this waiter did what he did. I pray I would have the courage to do the same. How come no one is willing to defend people like Milo when they are in the womb?
