At an event hosted by Turning Point USA at Indiana University, conservative commentator Tucker Carlson forcefully asserted that abortion is not merely a political or moral issue, but a clear-cut act of murder. He emphasized that in every civilized society studied \u2014 past and present \u2014 the taking of innocent life for convenience or ideology amounts to human sacrifice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
When a student pressed Carlson about whether America is a secular nation and questioned whether Christian values have been imposed upon society, Carlson responded firmly: \u201cIt\u2019s not actually a secular country.\u201d
In the course of the discussion he said: \u201cAbortion is murder, obviously, and everyone knows that.\u201d
He went further to contend that the ritualistic nature of abortion mirrors ancient practices of \u00ad\u2014 and that the \u201cshout your abortion\u201d movement reveals a \u201cwicked, gleeful enthusiasm\u201d for extinguishing innocent human life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
During the exchange, when the student argued that abortion is not ritualistic, Carlson cited an example of a mobile abortion clinic deployed near the Democratic National Convention in 2024: \u201cAre you joking? They had an abortion truck outside the Democratic Convention.\u201d He said that arguments about \u201cbodily autonomy\u201d rang hollow in light of the hypocrisy he perceived in COVID-19 vaccine mandates, and that abortion, at its core, is about the \u201cthrill that people derive from killing.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cIn every civilization,\u201d Carlson said, \u201cthe same ritual that has been studied is human sacrifice. \u2026 That\u2019s the most evil thing there is.\u201d
He drew a direct link between the act of killing one\u2019s own child and a feeling of god-like power, saying \u201cKilling your own child makes you feel (power).\u201d <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
