Pro-Abortion Feminist Marchers Assault Peaceful Prayer Group in Argentina

Marchers Hurls Trash, Screams Epithets, Expose their Genitals, and Embrace each other Sexually While Group Prays Silently

CORDOBA, October 18, 2007 (LifeSiteNews.com) - A pro-abortion march by angry feminists in the Argentine city of Cordoba became the scene of religious harassment last Sunday as demonstrators assaulted a peaceful group of Catholics praying in front of the Cathedral.

The feminists, who were participating in the Twenty-Second Annual National Women's Encounter, erupted into a frenzy of obscenity and violence, throwing trash and screaming epithets at the counter-demonstrators, who stood on the steps of the Cathedral with a banner over their heads that read "Cordoba Defends Life", and depicted a baby's hand.

The Catholics held their ground, praying the rosary and shutting their eyes as the feminists embraced each other sexually and removed their shirts and pants, exposing their genitals and chanting obscene slogans.  The feminists also threw bags of red paint over the heads of the prayer group, staining the cathedral.

One girl at the cathedral, which the press identified only as "Juana", received a black eye from the incident.  When she attempted to report it to the local police, she was told, "if it hurts, go to a doctor, I have a lot of work to do" and the policeman told a reporter accompanying the girl, "I decide what is a crime and what isn't."

Juana said that the violence had been instigated by a leading organizer of the Encounter, Suzana "Suzy" Carannza, who was also reportedly involved in assaults against dissenting Encounter participants during "workshops" held to discuss issues of interest to the feminist movement.

According to the Argentine news agency Agencia Nova, "Suzy" Carranaza went from workshop to workshop the with a gang of muscular women, threatening and assaulting Catholics who dissent from her views on abortion and contraception with "blows, kicks, and shoving".

The Agencia Nova reporter concluded that "this year's Women's Encounter in Cordoba gave evidence that the organizers are nothing more than an illicit association with the objective of aggressing against the dignity of the human person and creating insulting, discriminatory slogans against Catholicism and against anyone who is Catholic, with the excuse of 'women's rights'."

Not surprised in the least.

Nor would it surprise if some of these puddy tats had teeth in both ends.

Ever been to the "March for Life" in Washington, DC?

Come on over next year (Jan 22, 2008). If you get "lucky", you may witness some of the pro-abortion "opposition" protesters. They're almost as vulgar as these Argies.

This sort of thing will only get worse. We have not yet seen the depths of depravity that this world is capable of.

a banner over their heads that read "Cordoba Defends Life", and depicted a baby's hand.

When they saw the baby's hand, the women who had killed their own unborn child attacked those who would remind them of their guilt. This is a routine expression of psychological "projection". What is sad is that these women are tormented for life by what they have done, yet these evil groups tell them they did the right thing and they advocate abortion as a "right" to try and justify what they know in their hearts can never be justified.

That’s why God made video cameras.

The funny thing is in scripture it describes those who end up in hell, knashing their teeth at the agony and kicking themselves for not doing a simple thing, accept Christ and refraining from sin. It means many on judgement day will immediately know where they will end up and really have regrets for being stupid as they are cast into hell. Today there are many liberals and libertarians, who know that their viewpoints and lifestyles are sinful, they in one way or another acknowledge there is a God and there are God’s law, but in the name of freedom they will proceed onward to personal and spiritual destruction. Per the Great Commission, all Christians can do is tell them about the Good News and let their own free will decide. That way they cannot appear in front of God and claim they never were told.

I often forget to bring my video camera ... maybe next year.

OBTW, if your're not part of the solution, then you're part of the precipitate.
