Channel 6 News looks deeper into the story of a woman who apparently called 911 to come take her children away. Then isn't home with them when police arrive.

Police are looking for a woman who called 911 saying she couldn't care for her children anymore, and then abandoned them when police showed up. Police say a mother on the other end tells them she can no longer afford to take care of her four children, and that they should be taken away by child protective services. When officers arrive they find the kids, between the ages of 2 and 12, in a home they say wasn't fit for children to live. The 30-year-old mother couldn't be reached, and the kids were taken into protective custody. Jacque Schafer says she's seen at least one of the children outside half naked in the cold without supervision.

A violent encounter between a young pro-life protestor and an adult abortion activist in downtown Columbus, OH was caught on camera and published late July 9 on Youtube.

Students from the pro-life group "Created Equal" were standing on the street corner holding anti-abortion signs and talking with passers by when an infuriated pro-abortion woman approached one young man. "That's absolute f***ing lying there, you f***ing dipshit!," she screamed. "That is not what a fetus looks like, okay? It's a clump of cells at twelve weeks." In the rest of the two-minute encounter, she shoved her finger in the man's face and screamed 20 more f**ks in her incoherent "argument." Her hysterical rant was peppered with typical liberal condescension about "white male privilege" and claims of "racism" numerous times. The infuriated woman, apparently didn't think of how her behavior would look like for the company she works for, as she was still wearing her Burger King uniform.

"We will not be allowing insurance companies to extend their policies..."

In the wake of millions upon millions of Americans losing their health care insurance coverage due to mandates in the Affordable Care Act (aka: "ObamaCare"), Barack Obama announced he would change the law himself to fix the problem his signature legislation started to begin with. Yet within hours of his proclamation, health care insurance heavy hitters from Washington state to Washington, DC have hammered Obama's decree, as reported by both The Seattle Times and also by the Reuters news service on Nov. 14, 2013. While upwards of fifteen million fellow citizens have seen their privately purchased health care insurance cancelled due to their present policy not up to snuff with the requirements ordered upon all Americans, Obama stated today that he would order an Executive Branch "administrative fix" to the ACA law, thusly allowing health insurance companies to extend policies for individuals and families who have already received notices that their policies will be cancelled at the end of the year...
