Oklahoma House lawmakers declared Jan. 22 to be a Day of Tears for aborted babies and encouraged flags to be lowered to half-staff in a special resolution Tuesday.

The vote to adopt House Concurrent Resolution 1014, sponsored by state Rep. Jim Olsen, R-Roland, occurred on the same day that the state legislature passed a bill to ban abortions in Oklahoma.

Olsen’s resolution recognizes Jan. 22, the anniversary of Roe v. Wade, “as the Day of Tears in Oklahoma” and encourages state residents to lower their flags to half-staff “to mourn the innocent, preborn children who have lost their lives due to abortion.”

Since Roe in 1973, more than 63 million unborn babies have been legally aborted in the U.S. The resolution criticized the U.S. Supreme Court for allowing so many innocent children to die by “erroneously” ruling that abortion is a right in the Constitution.

In Oklahoma, about 4,000 unborn babies are aborted every year, according to state health statistics. But that number may be growing. Abortion facilities say they have been seeing more women come from Texas for abortions since the state heartbeat law went into effect last September, the Associated Press reports.

I am adopted, LIVING PROOF THERE ARE ALTERNATIVES!! There are politicians that think Capital Punishment of murderers and other violent crimes, is wrong. What crime did the innocent babies commit to deserve to be executed so cruelly ?

Those Justice’s that held that a woman has a constitutional right to kill a child will stand before God one day and be judged as guilty. Nowhere in the Constitution does it give a woman a constitutional right to kill a child. Also, the DemonRATS will stand before God and be judged as guilty for supporting, and killing, innocent children. They have no conscience or morals.
