Phillips The Planned Parenthood Demonstrations
Posted by Betsy Phillips on Sat, Jun 6, 2009 at 11:35 AM
On the corner by the Walgreens were, first, five or six Catholic demonstrators who prayed and knelt on the hard sidewalk and sang and read from their Bibles (though, unsurprisingly, they skipped Matthew 6:5). And then, as they left, a family of anti-abortion protesters showed up--a man, a woman, and eight children--and they took up on that same corner.
None of them appeared to be the "The Pill Kills" protesters, though. Also conspicuously absent were the "God Hates Shrimp" folks, even though I know for a fact that that Walgreens sells shrimp flavored ramen noodles.
As the demonstrations wore down, the pro-choice demonstrators lingered and a couple of people wearing pro-life shirts, who showed up late, got out of their car and came over. When it was explained to them that the anti-choice people had already left, they stood there confused for a second.

"But you have children..." - as do something like 60% of the women who have abortions in the United States each year.

Is it true that Planned Parenthood in Nashville has been putting facilities specifically in Hispanic neighborhoods?
My wife and I had an abortion 15 years ago. My wife and I had it while we were students at Vandy (on full Scholarship from poor families) - my wife was accepted to Vandy med school and we believed that we had to finish college or we'd couldn't make it.
The lies about abortion are rampant "people will believe a big lie sooner than a little one; and if you repeat it frequently enough people will sooner or later believe it"
Abortion as a valid "Choice" is one of the biggest lies ever.
I protest in Bloomington Indiana with my wife and many children and families are spared the horror of abortion.
I'm glad to know they Pro-Lifers are in Nashville too, my old hometown.
