God bless them...they will be taking their very lives into their hands by standing up to that mob...and may God’s Hand watch over them.

You know, right or wrong, conservative or liberal . . . I just truly despise protesters that are where they aren’t welcome.

I didn’t say they didn’t have a right to demonstrate. Just said they get on my nerves.

Well, there are some times, and there are some things, that simply MUST be protested...irrespective of risk and irrespective of those involved. I believe abortion is one of them.

The authorities certainly did not want us at the headgates of the irrigation canal in Klamath, OR...but we viewed the conditions as intolerable and so we took the risk, and ended up making a difference.

Really though, do you think pro-lifers demonstrating at the DNC . . . or pro-choicers demonstrating at the RNC . . . are really going to change anyone’s opinions on the subject? Highly unlikely.

If they were welcome, would they be protesters?

How about a truthful yet sarcastic sign:

DNC: you would have more voters if you hadn’t killed them all

When you are in the right, you can never tell what God's Hand can accomplish.

Having said that, it is unlikely that any of the Dems will change...but you never know. It is however more likely that others, seeing the protests through various media outlets and how they are treated for trying to protect the most innocent amongst us, could well be touched and influenced.

I would rather see the pro-life groups take the time, energy and financial resources they put into protesting and direct it towards more positive education.

My parents always taught me that you catch more flies with honey.

Translation, pro-life groups need to look like they are intelligent and caring . . . and not a bunch of wackos.

Pro-life groups do exactly as you say alll the time.

But there is also a time and a season for this. I will not pre-judge their protests although I fear the reaction from the other side much more.

It is much more likely that the real whackos will be those who smear, antagonize, and assault these protesters than the other way around...much more likely.

Sad to say, both sides of this debate have more than their fair share of wackos.

What’s “sad to say” is how thoroughly wrong and misinformed about that.
