PHOENIX, Arizona, July 6, 2009 (LifeSiteNews.com) - Offering brochures on pro-life alternatives to abortion may appear a safe enough act, but for one Arizona sidewalk counselor, the message of "no thanks" instead came through a drawn handgun allegedly held by a man determined that his girlfriend would get an abortion.

Local Phoenix station 3TV reported that a pro-life woman was offering literature on abortion alternatives to a man who had taken his girlfriend to the Planned Parenthood facility near Seventh and Campbell avenues, when suddenly the man pulled out a pistol, pointed the weapon at the woman for a few moments, and then drove away.

Lt. Larry T. Jacobs stated that Phoenix police were able to track the man down through the license plate number written down by the side-walk counselor, and arrest him.

I wonder how freely his girlfriend’s choice was made.

"I wonder how freely his girlfriend?s choice was made."

Quadruple loss, or more. The child, I assume, is gone. The "girlfriend" will never forget her sin. The pro-life intercessor was nearly martered. The "boyfriend" committed murder and assault - now destined for the lake of fire. What were the stakes of allowing the child to live if given up for adoption?

I have a feeling she didn’t much want to, as the article says “He (emphasis on he) was determined his girlfriend would get an abortion.” Me, I’d break up with the guyand keep the kid- not that I’d have a child with someone who is a boyfriend and not a husband.
