the death clock

tick, tick, tick, tick...

11 seconds pass by...
another dead baby.
another senseless death.
another murder
another baby's last breath.

22 seconds pass by....
2 more dead babies.
2 more frail lifes ended.
2 more slayings
2 more's rights undefended.

33 seconds pass by....
3 more dead babies.
3 more empty bodies.
3 more assassinations
3 more hearts cease.

44 seconds pass by....
4 more dead babies.
4 more silent screams
4 more butcherings
4 more shattered dreams

55 seconds pass by....
5 more dead babies.
5 more left dead
5 more massacres
5 more words unsaid.

every minute 5 more abortions are performed.
every minute 5 more people will never live
  because their mother killed them...
