JACKSON, Miss. (WJTV) – A peaceful prayer vigil turned into a shouting match outside of Jackson Women’s Health Organization in Fondren.

This comes after the Live Action pro-life advocacy group came to Jackson to protest the state’s only abortion clinic.

What started off as a quiet candlelight prayer vigil quickly erupted into a shouting match between live action supporters and the Pink House Defenders. Both sides stand firm in their beliefs in what’s right, but people in the Fondren District are getting tired of all the noise.

“You don’t mess with the Jackson Women’s Health Organization, the pink house is here to stay,” said Derenda Hancock, organizer of the Pink House Defenders.

Members of the live action prolife group gathered outside of the Women’s Clinic with signs and projecting the number 2,363.

“2363 is again the number of babies that are killed every single day through dismemberment, their poisoned to death, the have their arms and legs torn off. It’s a violent procedure and people need to know that and so the point of this campaign is to show the world who is dying, how they’re being killed and who is harmed,” said Live Action director of social media, Devin Sena.

The prolife advocates came to raise awareness about the Supreme Court hearing arguments soon that could possibly overturn Roe v. Wade.

“If Roe V Wade is overturned, what no one understands is it’s not just going to be abortion. Once that’s overturned all rights are at question. That would be the right to marry for LGBTQ people. It would be a huge list of rights that they’re going to have the ability to take away. This is not just about abortion,” said Derenda Hancock.

“It’s something we’ve got to do for pregnant people across the nation. This is live action and they’re a huge well funded anti abortion group that has invaded our city tonight out of nowhere and we’re not going to stand here and take that silently.”

I wonder how far they traveled to protest. Seems they complain a lot lately in their propaganda pieces about traveling long distances to murder babies.

Imagine someone whose entire existence is built around making sure we can keep killing unborn babies. What a sad, lonely life that must be. And the terror coming their way at the end — that is truly frightening. Stand strong but do keep these lost souls in your prayers. Winning them to the side of life is very powerful.
