Pro-Abortion Disruption Ends In Pro-Life Victory - Walk For Life 2011
YouTube ^ | 1/23/11

Posted on 01/24/2011 4:23:09 AM PST by markomalley

A group of pro-abortion protesters filed into the pro-life crowd at the Walk for Life West Coast 2011. They bring their banner in front of the EWTN cameras, which were filming live, and to a more elevated piece of land where more visible to the pro-life crowd. This led to a pro-life blockade, where Father Joseph Fessio, founder and editor of Ignatius Press, and a group of pro-lifers (including myself after I put my camera away) linked arms to block the pro-death banner.

At The Final Judgement perhaps all those who were Pro-Abort will see the smiling eternal faces of all those multiple millions of babies slaughtered by this heinous procedure. Suspect the gnashing of teeth will be most unpleasant. Praise His Holy Name forever.

Unfortuantely, you won’t see these freaks in the MSM. They want pro-aborts to look like the nice people next door. Blah. Sickening. God bless the people at this march who stopped these weirdos from advancing their message. I pray they (the pro-deathers) have a conversion of heart.

Better than that is to pray for their conversion and the salvation of their souls...

And to march. pray in front of abortion clinics. and keep pressuring the lawmakers.

We’re getting ready for the March now. Layers, layers and more layers. It’s 10 degrees right now & we’re looking at a high of 35.

Yup. I'm waiting until after rush hour to leave. Plan to be downtown by 11 -- in time for the 12:00 rally and 13:00 March!

The most ridiculously stupid chant I’ve ever heard: “A fetus is not a baby.”

May God rid this nation of the curse of abortion. 53 million abortions since Roe v Wade!! I fully believe that abortion is the curse that is blocking God’s full protection of our nation.

I do pray that their hearts are converted. I’ve never prayed at a clinic before, but I have big plans of doing that at this year’s 40 Days for Life, even thought I’m sure it will break my heart to see the faces of the women entering.

There’s a local Tea Party meeting next week w/ a very conservative member of our state house. I’m going to ask him why PA laws allow abortion up until 24 weeks, which is clearly a viable age. In my opinion, we need to whittle away at the abortion laws instead of repealing them outright (which would be met with such resistance it would never happen and lowering the acceptable gestational age is a great place to start. I’d also like this guy to introduce legislation mandating parents who have been given a prenatal terminal diagnosis be offered perinatal hospice as an alternative to abortion. As far as I know, there is only one state in our nation that makes mention of hospice care mandatory. I see those patients sometimes when I’m working at the women’s hospital. Many of them are tearful & I believe feel that they truly have no other option in the face of a horrible diagnosis. Often, their doctors tell them abortion is the best thing they can do. How awful and how dishonest.

I always go up to someone chanting that phrase and ask them what they think LATIN word “fetus” means. Because in almost every Latin / English dictionary I have seen, it means offspring, child of the parents, baby or some equivalent there of. That is when they either go into cognative dissonance or circular reasoning - funny to watch actually.

Yep! “It’s the first effect of not believing in God that you lose your common sense.” GK Chesterton

Watching them leave is much worse - sometimes the regret is already setting in. I got an "I Regret My Abortion" sign from Silent No More, and made iron-ons that say "Don't Make the Mistake I Made" for a sweatshirt & T-shirt, depending on weather. The clinic deathscorts don't like to look at me.

These were just dumb kids looking to cause trouble. Who knows if they even really believe what they said. They just wanted a fight, and they didn’t get one.

Oh my, bless you Nina. You are doing the Lord’s work.

I’m afraid of the emotions I may feel when I see them. It won’t be anger, it will be a deep hurt. I just know it. But nevertheless I am so drawn to do this that I can’t even explain it. So I’ll pray for strength. You are in my prayers, too.

Great footage. We are finally standing up to them. They can be confrontational & we will be peaceful.
For the first time since Roe v Wade I feel the tide changing.
