You can help drive home the message that the abortion lobby isn't about saving women's lives. Choose a woman or girl from the list below, perhaps choosing one from near your home, or who died when she was your age or your daughter's age, or who would be the same age as you had she not trusted the abortion lobby when she was feeling frightened and alone. Pick somebody you relate to, whose story you can learn and be ready to share.
Make a simple tombstone-style sign with a piece of foam board from an office supply store. Just use a razor knife to cut the top off in a semi-circle. Print out the woman's name, age, place and date of death, and cause of death -- Safe and Legal Abortion -- to glue on the front. (I recommend the expensive artists' spray adhesive, also available at office supply stores; it prevents wrinkling and holds in damp weather.) Print out her story to put on the back. If she's a local woman, check the library for old articles from newspapers that you can also include on the back. It always gives you more credibility, and makes your witness more powerful, when you have lots of documentation. Some coverage includes photos of the unfortunate women and/or their devastated families to drive the point home that these were real women and girls and that their lives mattered, and that their deaths should matter as well.
If this is a bit more than you have the time, energy, or artistic talent for, you can order a Tombstone Project Poster from Life Dynamics. I recommend mounting it on a piece of foam board for the March. Print out one of the women's stories (available here) for the back.
These signs are a powerful witness to the destruction of abortion. It bears repeating: The abortion lobby isn't about saving women's lives. It's about a political agenda.
Laws don't kill women. Abortionists do.

Why don't you post a list of all of the women who've died during pregnancy or childbirth, cunt? That list would look like an encyclopedia compared to this one.
ReplyDeleteI was gonna nuke you for being rude, but I think I'll leave you up as an example of the kinds of paragons of courtesy and compassion who think it's okay for quacks to kill women the way Mosche Hachamovitch and his staff killed five patients who trusted them because folks like you TOLD THEM that abortionists can be trusted.
ReplyDeleteWhy don't you go tell Jammie Garcia's mom how LUCKY she is that Jammie died from a nice legal abortion?
