Recent Acts of Abortion Violence Show Pro-Lifers Peaceful, Group Says

Washington, DC (LifeNews.com) -- Recent acts of violence related to abortion show that abortion and its legalization is more responsible for violence than pro-life advocates. A leading pro-life group says the acts back up its research showing pro-life people are less violent than abortion advocates.

Human Life International recently unveiled a web site featuring the results of its research showing over 7,000 acts of violence and illegal activities by those who support or practice abortion.

Brian Clowes, Ph.D., senior analyst for HLI, points to several recent acts of violence that back up his research.

In a statement provided to LifeNews.com, he highlighted the recent kidnapping of a Maine teenager by her parents to take her out of state for a forced abortion, and the case of a Georgia mother who tried to make her daughter drink turpentine to cause her to have an abortion

He also pointed out the Miami abortion facility staff who put the body of a baby born after a botched abortion on the roof of the center to hide it from police, and the case of a woman who used scissors to cut open another woman's womb and steal her baby.

"In the past two weeks the mainstream media has reported numerous acts of violence against pregnant women and their children both born and preborn," Clowes said.

"Over thirty years of pro-choice rhetoric has undermined the dignity of all life but pregnant women and their children are most at risk from pro-choice violence," Clowes added.

"The recent news coverage of violence against pregnant women and their children by abortionists and their pro-choice supporters underscores the dangers women are exposed to by pro-choice rhetoric," Clowes said in the statement.

Clowes said his group will continue to highlight cases of abortion-related violence at its web site.

Abortion advocates are responsible for the death of 50 million.

Can't measure this by the numbers.

Sucking the brain out of a persons head with a needle in the back of their neck with the intent to murdering innocent life is surely not violent.

Sucking up a person with the vacuum with the intent of murdering innocent life is surely not violent.

Crushing the head of a person with the intent of murdering innocent life is surely not violent.

Dismembering someone piece by piece with big metal forceps twisting and tearing the persons bones with the intent to murdering innocent life is surely not violent.

Snapping the spine of a person life with big metal forceps with the intent to murdering innocent is surely not violent.

Salt Poisoning with Saline Injection burning off the outer layer of skin and forcing someone to swallow a strong salt solution poison with the intent to murder innocent life (normally taking the person over an hour to die) is surely not violent either.

Being born alive after being half dismembered and/or half poisoned with salt/saline solution and simply left in a corner to die of neglect or exposure, with the intent of murdering innocent life, is surely not violent.

The pro-abortion crowd is surely never ever violent, or display any violent tendencies.

During about 15 years of being out at abortion centers most every week to help moms not kill their babies I have experienced many threats, been spit on, pushed, threatened with death and with being run over by many cars. I have had to dodge cars aimed at me as I stand near their driveways. Many other times I have been abused by pro-deathers but it would take too much time to name them all.

I have never, ever witnessed even one pro-life activist doing anything violent or threatening anyone. The nature of the pro-lifers has always been peaceful. Yes, we speak the truth but almost always it is spoken in love. A few have seemed somewhat self righteous but never violent.

It is very possible that many of their claimed threats against themselves are made up as pro-death propaganda. It would not surprise me if some, if not most of the property damage done to their killing centers is done by themselves as propaganda. They are cunning and wicked. I have learned to not underestimate the wickedness of the wicked.

I could also guess that some of the real damage done to them over the years may have been done by unstable people injured by abortion who could not cope with the guilt. Just a theory but gleaned from experience. The most violent, unstable people who have threatened me as I stand for life have been people who have obviously had or participated in abortion and are engulfed with guilt. They turn on me in wild eyed desperation as though threatening me somehow helps justify themselves. I would guess this could happen in reverse and some might be driven to turn on those that promoted and actually did the killing that they have such a hard time dealing with.

Well of course. We win more converts by love than by hate.

Abortionists project, and deceive by false witness.
