FULL TITLE: The reality for women seeking an abortion in Kentucky: Woman covers her head with a coat and is escorted by FIVE people as she enters the only clinic that performs the procedure in the state while being harassed by pro-life protesters

As the American Civi Liberties Union (ACLU) continues to battle some of the strictest abortion bans the United States has seen in decades being passed around the country, the reality of women attempting to seek lawful abortions in Kentucky remains hostile.

A video posted on Facebook by John Williams, who calls himself a 'street preacher,' shows a woman entering EMW Women's Surgical Center in Louisville as protesters shout at her, 'Don't kill your baby!'

The loud crowd is seen lining the walkway leading up to the only clinic in the state which performs abortion procedures, coming close to the woman as she walks with her head covered and with volunteer escorts surrounding her on all sides.

Kentucky Governor Matt Bevin recently signed into law both a so-called 'heartbeat bill' abortion ban and a ban on abortions for specific reasons, which have now been blocked from taking effect while litigation over the bills continues.

Amber Duke, communications director for the ACLU of Kentucky which represents EMW Women's Surgical Center in its various legal challenges against the state, told DailyMail.com of the scene in the video, 'This is a pretty typical of Saturday. Any time that clinic is open there are protesters out front.'

In the minute-long clip, multiple protesters can be seen walking alongside a woman as she's escorted by Every Saturday Morning volunteers to the front entrance of EMW Women's Surgical Center.

Her discomfort pales in comparison to what her child will experience.

The Daily Mail description is laughable. The covering of the head with the coat and the five deathscorts is street theatre by the pro-aborts. In 99% of cases, the mother is threatened with nothing more dangerous than a pamphlet and a suggested location for real help ... First Amendment stuff.

There were five deatscorts because that’s how many showed up to put on their show.

The sad part is that the Daily Mail is more thorough and even handed in U.S. news coverage than the AP, CNN and Reuters put together.

This can NOT be repeated enough. I've been on those sidewalks praying while the counselors do their thing. No one is making entering a clinic difficult. If they don't want to hear the counselors, they are allowed to simply keep on walking. Some stop and listen, most ignore. A few actually agree to go to the crisis center next door to explore other options.

"s, who calls himself a 'street preacher,' shows a woman entering EMW Women's Surgical Center in Louisville as protesters shout at her, 'Don't kill your baby!"

So, is the woman not going to kill her baby? What's the problem? They are telling her the truth.

Covering her head indicates shame, so she knows what’s right. She just isn’t DOING what’s right.

My dad’s office was above the abortion clinic. I was walking into my dad’s office with my GF while the protesters were out. Just as I reached the clinic door, I reached to grab the handle. The protesters erupted and we kept walking past it to my dad’s door. She informed me she had an abortion when she was 15 and I was not humorous. I called her a slut(not really but she turned out to be).
She’s on her 4th husband now, the guy that impregnated her when she was 15. I hope they have a happy life because he’s in Hell.

God sees her, and He isn’t happy.

“But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and MURDERERS, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death” (Revelation 21:8).

I wonder what form that "harassment" takes. Is it the pro-life people begging her not to kill her baby? Is it them offering to pray for her? Is it them offering her advice and options other than abortion?

Yeah, that's harassment all right ...
