Title: America's biggest serial killer, abortionist Kermit Gosnell & the media cover-up
Post by: Wilikon on March 31, 2014, 02:59:31 AM


Gosnell Movie
A historic crowdfunding campaign for a movie about America's biggest serial killer, abortionist Kermit Gosnell and the media cover-up.




http://www.indiegogo.com/projects/gosnell-movie


McAleer was set to use Kickstarter again for Gosnell, but the firm wanted several changes to the text of the fundraising pitch and, in the end, attached a disclaimer to the project’s letter of acceptance warning that if anything “objectionable” were added the project would be removed. McAleer sent a sternly worded letter to Kickstarter accusing it of “censorship” and moved the campaign for Gosnell to IndieGoGo. Kickstarter says the disclaimer is standard procedure.

Unlike FrackNation and other movies McAleer has produced, the Gosnell movie will be a scripted drama, and he’ll base it largely on grand jury testimony and documentation from Gosnell’s trial, which major media outlets covered sporadically. Columnists at Time magazine, Fox News, ABC News, theWashington Post, The Atlantic and elsewhere suggested that bias against the anti-abortion movement caused liberal journalists to ignore the story. A column for the The Daily Beast by Megan McArdle, for example, carried the headline, “Why I Didn’t Write About Gosnell’s Trial – And Why I Should Have,” and included a photo of the press gallery in the courtroom with every seat empty.

Well.. I almost never heard of him either. The reason is simple. This is a picture of the bench reserved for ALL the media during the trial. Not one day. Every day.

The state of Pennsylvania do have death penalty. But I don't think that the biased jury will ever give this monster any sort of meaningful punishment.

Kermit Gosnell
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia


Born   Kermit Barron Gosnell
February 9, 1941 (age 73)
Philadelphia, Pennsylvania
Criminal penalty
Life in prison without parole
Conviction(s)   First-degree murder (3 counts); Involuntary manslaughter (1 count)
Killings
Victims   Convicted on 4 counts, hundreds of similar incidents reported
Country   USA
State(s)   Pennsylvania
Kermit Barron Gosnell (born February 9, 1941) is a former American physician from Philadelphia. Among his other medical work, Gosnell ran an abortion clinic and was a prolific prescriber of Oxycontin.[1]

In 2011, Gosnell, alongside various co-defendant employees, was charged with eight counts of murder resulting in part from gross medical malpractice in treatment of patients at his clinic, as well as 24 felony counts of illegal abortions beyond the 24 week limit, and charged with 227 misdemeanor counts of violating the 24-hour informed consent law. The murder charges related to a patient who died while under his care and seven newborns said to have been killed after being born alive during attempted abortions. In May 2013, he was convicted on three of the murder charges, 21 felony counts of illegal late-term abortion, and 211 counts of violating the 24-hour informed consent law. After his conviction, Gosnell waived his right of appeal in exchange for an agreement not to seek the death penalty. He was sentenced instead to life in prison without the possibility of parole.[2] Gosnell has been described as a serial killer, with ABC's Terry Moran saying "Kermit Gosnell is probably the most successful serial killer in the history of the world."

Cool Documentary. Abortion is certainty an issue worthy of debate. Unfortunately, both sides are usually too clouded by emotion to participate effectively in reasoned debate. They tend to only consider arguments for and against their predetermined opinion. 

That said, I have funded on indigogo for a copy of the  DVD :-).

More about Gosnell:

"Gosnell received his Medical Degree at the Jefferson Medical School in 1966.[9] It has been reported that he spent four decades practicing medicine among the poor, including opening the Mantua Halfway House, a rehab clinic for drug addicts in the impoverished Mantua neighborhood of West Philadelphia near where he grew up, and a teen aid program"

"He became an early proponent of abortion rights in the 1960s and 1970s and, in 1972, he returned from a stint in New York City to open up an abortion clinic on Lancaster Avenue in Mantua. Gosnell told a Philadelphia Inquirer reporter in October 1972: "as a physician, I am very concerned about the sanctity of life. But it is for this precise reason that I provide abortions for women who want and need them"

More about Kermit Gosnell:



Seth Williams, Philadelphia District Attorney:

What [authorities executing a search warrant of the Gosnell facility] discovered… was blood-stained walls, blood-stained beds, and unclean sheets. They found jar after jar after jar filled with fetal remains, and specifically severed feet in jars. They found medical waste bags just strewn everywhere. What they learned was that he was running an abortion clinic, for the most part a late-term abortion clinic…

Dr. Gosnell even had a separate room in his clinic for the young white women that would come that was slightly less squalid than the rest of the clinic. When asked by his staff why this was, he said well that’s the way of the world. It would be more likely for those women to report what happened and what they saw at the clinic.

Makeda, Former Gosnell Patient [from the documentary “3801 Lancaster”]:

So when I got pregnant again I went to the clinic and I asked them… “Is it OK that I get, you know, another abortion?” ”Fine, fine”. They even like had this woman sit down and she told me that women in Brazil have at least twenty-one abortions, and she’s like, “They’re still able to conceive…” And, that was it for me. That was where I basically said, you know what, this has to be OK. It was the norm for me after she had coached me into believing that that was the norm. I would say the next fourteen years… within that time I had eight abortions. Eight. And I look back at it and it’s like God, what was I thinking? It just seemed like it was OK, it was so OK to go in there and get it done as long as you had the money.

Joseph Slobodzian, reporter, Philadelphia Inquirer:

The prosecutors contend that [Kermit Gosnell's late-term abortion business] made him a millionaire.

Report of the Grand Jury on Kermit Gosnell:

This case is about a doctor who killed babies and endangered women. What we mean is that he regularly and illegally delivered live, viable, babies in the third trimester of pregnancy – and then murdered these newborns by severing their spinal cords with scissors. The medical practice by which he carried out this business was a filthy fraud in which he overdosed his patients with dangerous drugs, spread venereal disease among them with infected instruments, perforated their wombs and bowels – and, on at least two occasions, caused their deaths.

CNS News:

According to the grand jury report in the case, clinic workers testified that babies often expelled from their mothers into the toilet and that, in at least one instance, the toilet was lifted from the floor to “get the fetuses out of the pipes.”

Davida Clarke, Former Gosnell Patient [also from the documentary "3801 Lancaster"]:

…I got pregnant, and someone told me about this clinic at 3801 Lancaster Avenue. I remember it like it was yesterday. There was a fish tank in the waiting area. Then you had a receptionist that just, like, all she wanted was your money immediately. They came in and they finally called my name, and I went upstairs. And I remember just walking through looking and seeing some women that looked half-dead in these bloody recliner chairs, and blood all over the floor. And I just kept going. I didn’t see him until I was hooked up with IVs and when they put the heart monitor around me, that’s when I decided I can’t do this. And he’s like “Oh, stop being a little baby,” and he’s pounding on my legs, “Stop being a little baby, stop being a little baby!” And now I’m outnumbered, cause all these women came in and I’m like tied to the bed. And the next thing I know, I’m out of it.

I woke up and I was sitting next to another girl. And at first when I woke up I didn’t know where I was. I just knew I was really groggy and I knew I wasn’t pregnant anymore. And I was crying and I kept saying “I want my baby I want my baby,” and they just were ignoring me.


Seth Williams, Philadelphia District Attorney:

Dr. Gosnell had a process that he referred to as “snipping.” Women would come, specific medicines would be given that would induce labor. They would then take scissors and place them at the base of the skull and snip or sever the spinal cords of those children that were born alive.

Ann Ponterio, Assistant District Attorney:

There was one baby that when it was born, one of the workers was playing with it for several minutes before the worker did exactly what Dr. Gosnell did. Snip the back of the neck. And when we use the word snip, it is a scissors taking the bony part of a vertebrae and cutting it. This is a very, very painful thing. And some of these babies did not die immediately. And they describe these bodies as twitching and lifeless.

Stephen Masoff [an unlicensed doctor working for Gosnell]:

“We call [snipping the spinal cord] a transection, but it’s literally a beheading… felt like a fireman in hell. I couldn’t put out all the fires…  I would run around with scissors.”

Randy Hutchins, Former Gosnell staffer:

There was a device that he and [Harvey Karman] were working on  that was supposed to be plastic – basically plastic razors that were formed into a ball. All right. They were coated into a gel, so that they would remain closed. These would be inserted into the woman’s uterus. And after several hours of body temperature, it would then – the gel would melt and these 97 things would spring open, supposedly cutting up the fetus, and the fetus would be expelled.

Kermit Gosnell, in reference to the large size of one of the babies he aborted:

“This baby is going to walk me home!”

HERCULES ACTOR BACKS GOSNELL MOVIE



** Donate HERE to the historic effort to make this movie!

Actor Kevin Sorbo slammed media and Hollywood refusal to cover Gosnell story because of “political agenda”

Actor Kevin Sorbo announced his support for the controversial new TV film on Philadelphia abortion doctor Kermit Gosnell who has been described as “America’s greatest serial killer.”

Sorbo – who is known for his role in the hit TV series Hercules and most recently the box office surprise of the year God’s Not Dead – along with his actor wife Sam recorded a video announcing their support and urging the public to help fund the film through crowdfunding.



Gosnell is serving several life sentences for murdering babies born alive who he then stabbed in the neck “snipping” their spinal cord. He killed thousands of babies this way in a 30 year killing spree ABC’s Terry Moran described Gosnell as “probably the most successful serial killer in the history of the world.”

The producers are looking for $2.1m in what is a record breaking ask for crowdfunded movie. Already just after six days they have raised over $330,000 through the crowdfunding website Indiegogo (GosnellMovie.com).

Son of Sam missed the opportunity to open his own abortion clinic, subsidized by the tax payers.

McAleer, who is working to raise $2.1 million to produce a TV movie about convicted murderer and former abortion doctor Kermit Gosnell, told TheBlaze that he and his wife, fellow filmmaker Ann McElhinney, purchased the closest billboard they could find to Kickstarter’s headquarters. “We wanted to post the billboard to draw attention to Kickstarter’s censorship to draw attention to how they don’t want diversity of opinion on the crowd-funding platform,” McAleer told TheBlaze. “Kickstarter tried to censor us — it didn’t work. When faced with a different point of view, their first instinct was to censor.”

That is why they went to indiegogo. Kickstarter refused their project then lied about it. That was the second project about abortion rejected by kickstarter.
I am not sure if it was necessary to waste any kind of money on that billboard though. It brings people to talk more about kickstarter than the movie project in the last few days  in my opinion. But some rich dude could finalize the deal.

Next I predict they may find a lot of audio/video/lighting rental companies not wanting to have their name associated with the production, because of political pressure. This fight is way from being over.

Gosnell Movie Nears $2.1M Crowdfunding Goal

http://www.nbcphiladelphia.com/news/local/Gosnell-Movie-Nears-Crowdfunding-Goal--258141921.html

Quote
The filmmaker behind a movie about the "House of Horrors" abortion doctor convicted of murdering babies born alive says his crowdfunding campaign has broken an Indiegogo record. As of Tuesday, the Gosnell Movie campaign raised $1.9 million of the $2.1 million goal, the most amount raised for a film on Indiegogo.

It’s unimaginable that any side of the reproductive-health debate could tolerate the barbarity of Dr. Kermit Gosnell and his unlicensed staff who preyed on low-income and minority women.

Yet for 31 years, the public’s guardians — regulators, politicians and health care providers — averted their eyes and abandoned their duties, allowing a virtual Mengele to openly and profitably operate an unsanitary, Auschwitz-like health facility in Philadelphia where countless women suffered maiming, infection or worse.

According to the grand jury report that advanced Gosnell’s murder conviction, he “regularly and illegally delivered live, viable babies in the third trimester of pregnancy — and then murdered these newborns by severing their spinal cords with scissors,” as did his employees.

The grand jury faulted seemingly indifferent government officials who “literally licensed Gosnell’s criminally dangerous behavior” by refusing “to treat abortion clinics as ambulatory surgical facilities.” Their inaction was action and a reminder that morality is a choice when otherwise ordinary people commit appalling acts, as in Nazi Germany.

The crowdfunding campaign to make a TV movie about convicted killer Kermit Gosnell has only five days left. The Gosnell Movie project is nearing the $2 million mark and already has shattered a number of fundraising records. The project, designed to remind the public of the atrocities committed by the late-term abortionist, is Indiegogo.com's most successful campaign to date. The Gosnell movie out-earned projects from major stars like Spike Lee and James Franco. Its fundraising tally represents a larger number of donors than those star-driven projects.

My contribution here was to make bitcoiners aware of that butcher (sorry for all the people doing that very noble profession, butcher that is).
Beyond that, for those who took their time to read through the thread I hope you were touched enough to contribute anyway you could by at least sharing that project to everyone you know.

The lesson beyond this project is, if there was a need for a personal project for crowd funding, indiegogo would get my vote for sure 100%. NEVER kickstarter.

Now the challenge reaching the final goal is far from over. Far from it.
