ZitatROSWELL, New Mexico, March 15, 2019 (LifeSiteNews) – The City Council of Roswell, New Mexico passed a resolution Thursday declaring its jurisdiction to be in support of “fetal life,” something local pro-life activists say makes Roswell a “sanctuary city for the unborn.”
In a seven to one vote, with one council member abstaining, the City Council passed Resolution 19-28, which declares “that innocent human life, including fetal life, must always be protected and that Society must protect those who cannot protect themselves.”

The Roswell resolution cites the Declaration of Independence’s listing of life as the first unalienable right. It also cites a paper from the American College of Pediatricians stating:
"The predominance of human biological research confirms that human life begins at conception-fertilization. At fertilization, the human being emerges as a whole, genetically distinct, individuated zygotic living human organism, a member of the species Homo sapiens, needing only the proper environment to grow and develop. The difference between the individual in its adult state and in its zygotic state is one of form, not nature."
“The protection of human life is important to the people of the City of Roswell,” the resolution says.
Roswell, for them what don't know, is the supposed place where an alien spaceship crashed in 1947. The town exploits the incident with shops dedicated to the event and museums devoted to it. I have a number of pictures of myself in the midst of such memorabilia and a treasured hat which proclaims me a special agent of the city. God bless them for this.
How can the Democrats say they support border security when they also advocate for sanctuary cities?
