Hillary Clinton has publicly declared that she views an unborn baby as having no constitutional rights.

LifeNews reports: "While campaigning in Indiana over the weekend, pro-abortion Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton made it clear she has no love for the new pro-life law in Indiana that protects unborn babies who have Down syndrome," (http://www.lifenews.com/2016/05/02/hillary-clinton...)

As an older sister of a sister with Down Syndrome, I have a lot to say about this matter. So here goes.

Dear Hillary,

I'm sorry you are missing out on the wonderful adventure it is having a loved one with Down Syndrome in this world. My sister is the most beautiful person I have in my life inside and out. She is the happiest, bubbliest human being I've seen and her personality is the kind the world longs to see in a person.

But if I lived under your standards, my blue eyed beauty wouldn't exist. I would not ever have the opportunity to hear her joyful giggle, to watch her as she grows- all because she is different from you.

Do you think that she is not as much of a person as you? That the thing that makes her unique is the very thing that downgrades her quality of humanity? What happened to "all men created equal?"

Creation begins at conception, because the very pieces that will become your being are created at conception. If all men are created equal, what decides that one may have the power to take another's life? Unborn babies are humans. Individuals with Down Syndrome are humans. They are all humans who deserve life.

I am so glad that the world does not all think like you; because if they did, it would be a terrible, murderous place. We would be murdering brothers, sisters, scientists, thinkers, and people who have so much to give the world before they ever had the chance to make their mark.

How dare you, How could you take innocent lives? It's not abortion. It's murder. And it's wrong, especially with kids like my sister.

We Heart It

Over the past decade, television has undergone a very crucial transition: the incorporation of female lead characters. Since it's a known fact that girls actually do run the world (Beyonce said so herself), it's time for the leading ladies of the small screen to get some credit. Without these characters, women would still be sitting in the background of our favorite shows. These women are not only trailblazers for female empowerment, but role models for women worldwide. With that, here are 15 of the smartest, sassiest ladies gracing our screens that remind us that women do, indeed, rule:

If you are like me, you have an interesting personality. Basically, you love to be sassy and snarky, gossip, and act like a total bitch (not really), but deep down, you are actually a very genuinely nice person. The idea of actually hurting someone truly makes you feel bad, and you probably have never actually hurt someone’s feelings because your kindness always shines through, even if you do not want it to. Not sure exactly what I would call this type of personality, but if you identify with it, here are some feelings you can undoubtedly relate to.
