Do these nice people know that overturning Roe wouldn't change the status quo very much when it comes to abortion?

The most obvious difference between this group and the proaborts is the lack of uglyangry types in your pics.

Thank you for the pictures right-wingin_It.

Solidarity is a beautiful thing.

Thank you so much, dear Lord, for giving us the grace to join together in solidarity with those whose physical bodies are brutally destroyed in the womb, and with those who are fighting this injustice.

I saw a heavy turnout of Pro-Life people on the metro yesterday as I went home from work. I'd say NOW and NARAL had their hands full yesterday and didn't monopolize anything other than the predictably biased news coverage.

Thanks for the lovely pictures. Bless you!

Great pictures. We had good representation from Pennsylvania and in particular, the Harrisburg Diocese with Bishop Rhoades leading the way. Our parish had 100 go on Sunday and come back last night.

The elderly in our group, including me, met last night for prayer.

We understand it may have been the largest crowd to ever march. 25,000 were reported at the Mass. and about 100,000 marched.

I compare crowds to sports attendance and knowing that Giants Stadium holds 70,000, there were more in line marching from 1:15 to 3 PM than attends the football games.

It was not the length of the march but the width of the march. I counted (via EWTN) about 30 to 50 people wide, shoulder to shoulder.

Great pics! What a contrast from all the radical left wing vermin that show up on the other side with their NARAL signs.

This is a stunning group of people - what a great turnout!! Congrats to whoever organized it.

NYer:

I have to tell you about my favorite poster from the March for Life in WDC on Monday.

While we gathered in the Mall, I walked around for a bit during the speeches. I like scope out the various posters, groups, etc. and collect some of the literature people are passing out. I passed by a group of high school kids whose hand-made sign said "ByzanTEENS for Life" at the top. I thought that was clever. Below the words I could see the top of an icon, but right then the sign was at about head level, so I couldn't make out who was on the icon.

I am so kicking myself for not going up, getting a closer look and talking to them.

By the end of the March, I had got separated from everyone else in my group. So I left the Supreme Court area and began walking toward Union Station where I knew a few of them would be. En route there, I could see down the block that "ByzanTEENS for Life" sign held high.

Below the words was an icon of the Vistation of Mary to Elizabeth. Within each saint, you could see the child she was bearing, as with an artistic "x-ray" -- and you could see the fetal St. John the Baptist within St. Elizabeth joyfully worshipping the Christ Fetus within the Blessed Virgin Mary! It was amazing to look at!

The "windows on the wombs" were not circular abstractions, like in the icon "Our Lady of the Sign". They were roughly anatomically correct ovalish shapes located in the saints' bellies. The icon looked like it was based on a traditional icon of the visitation, with the "x-ray" images added on.

I started to run to catch up to them and get a closer look and to find out whether it was handmade or purchased, etc. But they crossed the street to get to Union Station, and by the time the light changed for me, they were nowhere to be seen.

I did some Yahoo searches hoping to find the "ByzanTEENS for Life" online, and the icon, but was unsuccessful.

I know a Ukrainian priest who works with an artist (Ann Simoneau) who has done many wonderful icons for his books, parish bulletins, etc. I'm going to ask him that he suggest that Ann make a version of this icon. If she does, and it is published somewhere, I will let you know.

Thanks for posting all those photos. Thank you very much. It was neat to see the folks remembers Terri Schindler Schiavo.

Next year, why not attend the march yourself? Take a good look at those pictures, FRiend--all of them. It is never too late to be pro-life, thank God, and it is never too late to repent. I wish I could make you understand that but I am pretty certain we're never going to find common ground. That is sad. We're both trying to do what we can to fight the good fight.

Well, FReegards
