ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. (KRQE) – The morning drop off at Eldorado High School on Friday turned into a scene where police had to be called.

Anti-abortion demonstrators were legally on the sidewalk outside the high school with graphic signs sharing their view on abortion. At some point in the morning, someone going onto campus was upset they were there.

“I don’t know exactly because I wasn’t right there. I think he felt he should stand in front of the sign or something. One person thought they got pushed,” said Rosemary Connell, a pro-life demonstrator.

Albuquerque Police Department was called to the scene to calm things down. They determined no assault actually happened and the protesters were allowed to stay out there.

The anti-abortion protesters told KRQE they frequently go outside high schools to talk with students about abortion on their way into school. “Part of our strategy is to go to high schools, stand on the sidewalk which is perfectly legal, because we have some tremendous discussions with students,” Connell said.

Despite people’s views on the issue, people in the area don’t think any demonstrators should be giving lessons about the issue at schools. “No, I don’t think it’s appropriate,” said Glenn Gress of Albuquerque said.

“I think a place like downtown, that’s fine. But around children, and a bunch of people, growing children I guess, I don’t think it’s a good idea,” said Alicia Chavez, who lives in the area.

Some people said it intrudes on a parent’s place in the discussion of the issue. “I’m from a different religion. I would be offended if someone teaches my kid to be a different religion or different opinion,” Daniel Curtis, who lives nearby said.

FReepers a lot of schools have Planned Parenthood or sex based clinics where students can get birth control or information about abortion there on campus.

It is very good for these pro lifers to be there, because 9 times out of 10 the sex education they are already getting is not telling them that is a real baby and can die in abortion.

“But men in drag, invited into the schools, reading stories is still AOK...”

Men in low cut skirts flashing their junk while reading books about homosexuality.

These people were out on a public sidewalk.

That was my school almost 40 years ago. They should all go have a slice of Dion’s pizza and chill.
