Just what I said

When I listened to the priest mention in his homily this past weekend the importance of protecting innocent children from being separated from their parents at the border, I couldn't help but think if this same priest had ever made a similarly impassioned plea for children in the womb who are literally separated by dismemberment. Then I read this from CatholicVote:

The obvious comparisons to the abortion debate are unavoidable. Where are the media on children ripped from their mothers wombs? Does the New York Times care about what it means to be “pro-life” if it doesn’t harm Trump? And what about communion not being a “prize for the perfect, but medicine for the weak?” 
The height of hypocrisy was when Planned Parenthood weighed in on Father’s Day, saying “In our hearts and minds today: all of the fathers and parents who have been separated from their children at borders.” 
Nobody has done more to separate children from their parents than Planned Parenthood.

Where has all this outrage been hiding? Children were being separated from their parents under the Obama administration, yet no outrage was heard then.

Our society and government have been overlooking the rights of children to life, dignity, and security for decades, in the womb, at the border, and within marriage. Why are we only just now expressing outrage?
