has no constitutional right to a lawyer, judge or jury before being killed for no crime. (Perhaps one might search the Constitution’s "emanating" "Penumbra" which SCOTUS Justice William O. Douglas claimed to see in 1965. Or maybe in the Declaration of Independence’s self-evident truths such as the unalienable Right to life. To say nothing of "Never again! Nor "Thou shalt not Kill/Murder.") Other Governors in NY and RI have supported or voted for similar legislation.

Planned Parenthood founder, Margaret Sanger, wanted to eliminate "human weeds" and minorities. In 2009, Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg told New York Times Magazine reporter Emily Bazelon: "Frankly, I had thought that at the time Roe (v. Wade) was decided, there was a concern about population growth and particularly growth in populations that we don’t want too many of." One wonders which "populations" Ginsburg wishes to see eliminated. African-American organizations such as MAAFA 21 understand the results of this ongoing genocide. Recent reports say Ginsburg herself is now clinging to her own life.

The National Socialists of the 1930’s coined the term "Life unworthy of life." I’m sure I fit this category by their "standards"; although my wife and children would disagree. Today’s Socialists and their ilk are themselves too blind to even value human life. National Socialist, and author of Germany’s eugenics laws, Ernst Rudin’s call for "racial purity" was published in Margaret Sanger’s "Birth Control Review." Our government now gives $500 million per year to Planned Parenthood which earns $1.5 billion per year. On January 8th, PP President Leanna Wen stated "Our core mission is providing, protecting and expanding access to abortion…" Medical "bio-ethicist" Ezekiel Emanuel, who advised "health" panels for both the Clinton and Obama Administrations, wrote in a 2009 Lancet Medical journal article about rationing health care via death panels. Emanuel later wrote that everyone should die at 75. (No word from the 85-year-old Ginsburg.) Duke University’s Walter Sinnott-Armstrong, and National Institute of Health’s Franklin Miller, co-authored a 2013 article in the British Journal of Medical Ethics entitled "What Makes Killing Wrong?", which stated that it is not "wrong" to kill a person if that person is not "benefitting" society. The example being a comatose person who could (should?) be killed in order to harvest the person’s organs so as to "benefit" society, rather than be a "drain." (No word on whether Sinnott-Armstrong has been hovering near Ginsburg’s bedside.) A current court case involving abortion providers admitting on video tape that they sell human body parts resulting from their grisly business is being presided over by U.S. District Judge William Orrick, who refuses to recuse himself despite having sat on the board of the "Good Samaritan Family Resource Center" which entered into a "key partnership with Planned Parenthood" during his tenure. Orrick also imposed a "gag order" preventing the release of further "60 Minutes-20/20 style" investigative videos. Killing has become "big business" with major political clout. It is power, plain and simple. Abortion provides big money.

Big money wins elections. However, bloodlust is insatiable; one never gets enough. Perhaps people will pay attention if "Planned Elderhood" should become reality. Hope may "spring eternal"; but godless governments certainly rot. Viva Cristo Rey! Yours in Christ, Robert G. Dwyer West Bend, WI 53090

Last Pilgrim and the 'U.S. Rangers' Editor’s Note: I’d like to personally recommend the author of the following letter for the partial sponsorship he seeks.

I’ve had the pleasure of meeting Mr. Brad Montgomery on several occasions, including at last year’s Catholic Identity Conference where Brad and his brother, Ben, volunteered to work the CIC security detail all weekend long. Brad’s a fairly recent convert to Tradition and, having had several conversations with him myself, I can assure Remnant readers that this young man is fired up for all things Traditional Catholic. This year, Brad has volunteered to partner with my son Walter Matt in organizing what the French affectionately call "The U.S. Rangers"—a team of five young American men who will help with the monumental task of assembling (and then disassembling, relocating and assembling again) the large communal tents needed to house 10,000 pilgrims during the Chartres Pilgrimage in June.

In the photo below, readers can see several members of the U.S. Rangers posing beneath their favorite Sacred Heart flag, which they raise over their gatherings on the campus at Franciscan University. Known as the "trads", these young men aren’t afraid to let everybody know that Tradition is catching on at FUS. Cleary, friends, all is not lost when young Catholic men attend the Latin Mass together, enlist in the League of the Sacred Heart and then volunteer to spend three days in France helping to house traditional Catholic pilgrims. Please consider a tax-free donation of any size the Remnant Tours Youth Fund so that we can get these five young men over to France to help 10,000 pilgrims stay warm and safe during this year’s pilgrimage, while committing themselves entirely to the Catholic counterrevolution.

The Remnant is trying to raise $1000 for each of the 5 U.S. Rangers to help offset the cost of sending them on this mission.

By the way, the Remnant Pilgrimage to Austria and Hungary is now completely sold out. Some of the young people who had applied for sponsorship did not make it but will be placed on the top of the list for next year. Anyone still wishing to attend the 3-day walking Pilgrimage only can still register with the U.S. Chapter at the address below. The cost is $75 and, obviously, does not include airfare. I hope to see you on the Road to Chartres.

MJM Dear Remnant Readers, My name is Brad Montgomery, I am from the Dayton, OH area, where I attended an FSSP parish upon discovering the Traditional Latin Mass. I currently reside in Steubenville, OH where I attend Franciscan University as a graduate student and teach Latin as a part-time teacher at a nearby Catholic school. In an effort to continue following the way of salvation established by Christ, I am hoping to participate in the Chartres pilgrimage to France this coming Pentecost in order to be re-oriented toward Christ the King on my pilgrim way.

The first Latin Mass that I attended was on the feast of Christ the King a few years ago and since that time I have continued to find refuge from the world in the treasures of the Church’s tradition, especially in devotion to the Sacred Heart. I have also found support in a growing body of traditionally-minded Catholics here in the Steubenville area who have done a lot of good work in educating college students in the Latin Mass.

Another reason I would like to attend the pilgrimage is to be strengthened in my faith and better able to contribute to supporting people who have a curiosity of the Church’s tradition. In an age in which so many seem to hate Christ and his Church, including both those inside and outside of the Church, a life lived in the abundance of Christ’s grace seems more necessary than ever so that we might have a chance of serving Christ as good soldiers till the end.

I am requesting some sponsorship so that I might be able to attend this year’s pilgrimage. I would like to stress that I am only in need of partial assistance (about $1200) in order to attend the pilgrimage as I have already set aside some funds for the pilgrimage. Any assistance will be greatly appreciated, and you can be assured of my prayers for you and your intentions throughout the duration of pilgrimage and tour so that Our Lord may bless you with the graces offered by him.

May God bless you and your families, Brad Montgomery
