Kerry's Peeps Revile Priests at Pro-Abortion March

The best way I can explain what I witnessed at today's so-called March for Women's Lives is to reference the movie, The Exorcist. When the possessed child, Regan, is confronted by priests who have come to expel the evil spirit from her, she reacts in shockingly vulgar, profane ways.

That is how thousands of 'pro-choice' demonstrators reacted to the presence of a lone priest blessing and praying for them along the march route.

Father Reynolds stood for hours this afternoon on Pennsylvania Avenue, NW, in front of the Navy Memorial. Other members of the clergy and pro-life activists were spread out along the same block. Almost nonstop, he made the sign of the cross with his right arm while speaking to the marchers offering blessings and prayers.

The response was nothing short of satanic. Father Reynolds was cursed at and flipped off by hundreds of marchers, many of whom sported Kerry stickers. Many other marchers mocked the sign of the cross. Some denounced God while others denied His existence.

Marchers screamed at the top of their lungs against the priest. He was repeatedly accused of being a child molester by those who support the murder of children.

One woman walked up to the priest and stood just on the other side of the police-manned fence separating the sides. She made the sign of the cross, but finished by thrusting her hips forward at the priest while she dramatically grabbed her crotch.

All the while, 'pro-choice' marchers were walking behind our lines with the permission of police. This caused me and another man to stand guard by Father Reynolds because the 'pro-choice' marchers kept harassing him and the police were slow to intervene.

I was wishing I had a video camera to document this. To see Kerry supporters acting in such a revealing and demonic manner was unsettling. Hour after hour passed of this vile, contemptuous behavior toward the priest. Noone on their side tried to rein in their evil behavior. It was the Democratic party at its most real.

The last group in the march was a bunch of homosexuals in drag who stopped and sang crude, profane songs meant to insult the clergy.

Father Reynolds blessed the men, as he had done thousands of others all afternoon. His faith was not shaken by the way he was treated today. He remained in good spirits throughout. His blessing arm was almost worn out, though :-)

Kerry supporters dominated the march today. I could tell by all the Kerry stickers, signs and hats worn by the marchers. Who else are they going to vote for, even if they aren't passionate about him, to preserve their right to kill the innocent? The media, of course, will ignore their evil behavior.

I heard there were a bunch of seminarians from Maryland that got harassed too. I have a story about my participation in the counter-protests, but I am going to save that for later.

[Unam Sanctam]

What a brave priest! Too bad it's not on film so that these people can be shown to be the hate-filled anti-Catholic bigots that they are.

[Miss Marple]

Dear kristinn,

I am glad you documented this behavior.

I have said before that we are in a time similar to the parable of the sheep and the goats, or the wheat and the tares. This seems to prove it.

God bless the father, and God bless you for standing by him.

WRF?

Guaranteed, if you guys had crossed into their march, you'd have been arrested.

[Doctor Raoul]

LOTS of Kerry stickers today.

Seeing the priests was like flipping a switch marked, "VILE" for most of those marching today.

At the very start of the march was a teen girls who just reviled in saying "Fuck" as loud and as often as she could. She was grinning from ear to ear at the sheer joy of it.

THE sick puppy in a litter of sick puppies.

one can expect nothing more from such as these.

[kristinn]

Just doin' my job.

Outside my building in downtown D.C., a discarded sign from the march stuck out from a trashcan. It said: "Euthanize Christians."

I had seen the sign being carried earlier in the march.

[Doctor Raoul]

The police were quick to shoo them away when they came into our ranks or in front of us. At least the officer in front of me was.

I'm not sure you could prevent someone from "transiting" from one place to another. We may have had a permit for the sidewalk, but I doubt it shuts down the sidewalk.

Ping

[Tabi Katz]

Good work showing up! Did you get a general idea of how many pro-lifers were there? I just heard 200 on TV, so I'm guessing somewhere in the neighborhood of a thousand or so.

Did you see/ here the celebs running their big, stupid mouths?

[HowlinglyMind-BendingAbsurdity]

Pro-life ping.

[RightOnline]

One 500-pounder would have done the trick. That's better than what this trash deserves, however.

[PRSOrlando]

God Bless Father Reynolds and pro-lifers at this event.
The hate of some of these pro-abortionists is just pure evil. After hearing some of the "speeches" on CSPAN and reading your comments on the events that took place today, I am convinced that these people are possesed. I'm glad the ever Virgin Mary didn't have an abortion; as am I glad my mother didn't abort me. Perhaps these abortionists should thank their mothers that they weren't aborted.

[Desdemona]

God Bless Father Reynolds. And you too, kristinn, for being there.

[kristinn]

The problem was the police left the end of the sidewalk at 9th Street unguarded, so the other side came pouring down in waves. I had to lobby the police to take control of the situation and enforce the permit. Eventually they did, but for a long time I was having to get them to remove infiltrators and those harassing the clergy.

[The South Texan]

Sounds like another typical group of Democrats. BTW, did they pick up there own trash? Or did they leave it for somebody else to clean up. Rats are famous for leaving messes, especially the Enviro-wackos when they have their "functions."

If you think the DC rally was a freak show and a Bush hating festival, wait till the Rat convention in Boston. That will make the Exorist look like a rated G movie.

[Doctor Raoul]

WTOP radio had the pro-life ranks at 700.

[saul goode]

These people would never thank their mothers for not aborting them. They are sick, sad human beings. They aren't thankful for being born. They're angry at life.

[Miss Marple]

Well, not too mamny people "do their job." You do, and I am most grateful.

I don't know that I could have stood firm in the face of so much evil. Thank you.
