With a Fox News helicopter overhead and police at bay below, pro-lifers are more than halfway toward their official Guinness Book of World Records attempt to display the largest ever protest sign.

WOOHOO!!!!I love this!!!Great idea...

[A.A. Cunningham]

Unlikely

[Girlene]

What a bunch of troublemakers. They should be put in jail.

LOL. I'm assuming you forgot a sarcasm tag. Welcome to FR.

"UPDATE, 10:10a: Reports are that traffic on I70 has slowed 10 miles from the protest sign as drivers come into its view."

Out freaking standing !!

Check this out, great idea to pass along to the troops, as I doubt the MSM will cover it.

[Rebelbase]

You’d think they’d have added an extra foot to avoid that.

[brityank]

Thanks, Girl — I saw that. Suspect someone realized that they could be in a world of hurt had they not allowed that. I’ll be curious to see what, if any, charges they’ll try to slap on those folks.

“Looks like it might be on North or South Table Mountain near Golden.”

Ha, that’s the mountain where I took one hang gliding lesson in 1980, and then decided I couldn’t afford another and tried just one more time without instructions. Luckily it went okay, but I didn’t try that again. I haven’t seen that mountain since. Thanks

Symbolism. 530 feet tall is likely a reference to a certain 5:30 verse, and 666 feet wide is pretty obviously a slap at who likes abortion.

[sweetiepiezer]

How wonderful to get that sign up.
God Bless them.
PRay for the unborn.

This makes us all so proud to be conservative pro lifers.

Personally, I don’t like sarcasm tags on a good line. If people can’t differentiate, getting slapped down for assuming the worst and arguing is probably a good way to learn.

There’s a local radio host here with an dry and irreverent sense of humor, but he just ruins it by adding “just kidding” and the end of half his lines. If he had more confidence to be misunderstood by a few, he’d be way more entertaining to everyone else.

The sign will be legible from at least 5 miles

Sounds like it's slightly too small for the media to notice or see it much less report anything regarding it.

[fatima]

Nice,here’s a bump.

[jazusamo]

This is great and will be remembered for many years.

Hopefully no charges can be brought against them. If they clean it all up what have they hurt other than the RATS’ feelings. LOL!

I saved the pic and set it as my desktop image. The culture of life lives.

[Psalm 73]

Makes a great Desktop display.

Anybody here seen one or any media mention yet?

Fox News seems to be ignoring it.

[The Shrew]

I just made a quick run up I-25 and west on 6th Ave. Because of the nature of the terrain only the top half of the sign is visible from the top of the 6th avenue overpass (just south of the Pepsi Center).

It is not visible from the ground around the Pepsi Center, but is probably visible from the west facing hotel rooms as A.A. Cunningham has noted.

It is shockingly visible from the west bound lanes of I-70 from probably Federal and west. This is north of downtown Denver.

I heard Mike Rosen (850 KOA)pooh-pooh the protest by calling them "anti-abortion zealots" and then mis-representing the sign by saying Destroys Newborn Children. That's some alliance we have with the 'Fiscal Conservatives'.

Clearly, the media is not taking a great interest in this so we in the alternative media must get the word out.
