Eric McLean

A Wisconsin man with terminal cancer has taped a YouTube video in which he bids farewell to loved ones and tells viewers through heart-wrenching sobs, “I tried so hard, fought so hard. But the fight is over.”

“So, I don’t know what to say, or if I’m leaving something out,” says Eric McLean, 28, of Two Rivers.

“I’m so scared. God, is it scary. So much I want to say. You know, I’m 28 years old. I’m going to miss everyone. My family, my brothers and sisters and parents, my wife, Cari. I love you so much, babe. I love you so much.”

“I swung my bat as hard as I could. The ball game is over, guys. With that, I’m going to say, ‘bye’ for the very last time. I love you. Thank you all.

“And I hope you all live very long lives.”

Man hands out fetus dolls for Halloween

From WSBTV 2: Some parents who attended a trick-or-treat event in Loganville say they were offended by what some children got with their candy; a doll resembling a 12-week-old fetus.

Man hands out fetus dolls for Halloween

The man who handed out the dolls, or fetus models, is Joshua Edmonds, senior minister of ‘Project: Ignite’, which he describes as a Christian social justice organization.

He believes those who were offended misunderstood his message about life, and that he did not mention abortion during the event even though his organization is against abortion.

“We’re still trying to understand where the offense is at,” Edmonds said.

Watch the news story here.

Can someone go punch Joshua Edmonds in the face? This idiot needs to find another way to share his views on abortion. Although abortion is horrific, Halloween should not be a time to hand out political messages.
