Today, the ACP joined the March for Life in Olympia, WA! Despite the inclement weather, there was still about 2,500 people in attendance standing up for babies’ rights. The ACP was there because pro-lifers — even dedicated ones who attend marches in the cold — need to be educated on and reminded of the full extent and brutal reality of abortion. We received several positive comments, including those from a man who had never seen what abortion looks like. He expressed his shock and thanked us for being there. Here are a few pictures from the event. You can see the rest on our Facebook...

We are proud to announce our newest Anti-Choice Project chapter has just been launched in Kansas City, MO. Our good friends Caleb and April Pearson have received a shipment of new signs, and will soon be heading up protests along the busiest streets of Kansas City. The Anti-Choice Project is making abortion impossible to ignore or trivialize by confronting indifferent Americans with the horrifying reality that abortion is an act of violence which kills a baby. Injustices which are covered up do not end, so our strategy for ending abortion is to get these pictures in the hands of pro-lifers in every American city. If you are in the Kansas City area and would like to join Caleb and April — or if you would like to establish an ACP chapter of your own — please email us at...

Almost three years after the Anti-Choice Project began regular protesting with graphic abortion photos in Silverdale, Washington, the Planned Parenthood health center in that town is closing, reports the Kitsap Sun. Kristen Glundberg-Prossor, spokeswoman for Planned Parenthood of the Great Northwest, attributes the closure to less federal and state taxpayer funding. The Anti-Choice Project readily concedes that a shortage of government subsidies played a significant role in their decision making. But it is no less true that the nation’s largest abortion provider became far less popular as soon as pictures of the dismembered babies leaving Planned Parenthood were put on display along the busiest streets of Silverdale, thanks to ACP. Injustices which are covered up have no hope of ending. In a democracy, laws which enable victimization of the innocent — for instance, taxpayer funding of abortion laws — are overturned only after a majority are bothered enough by the injustice to end it. The Anti-Choice Project is making abortion impossible to ignore or trivialize by bothering citizens with the horrifying evidence that abortion kills children in an increasing number of counties across the...

As you know, we have a handful of our protest videos posted online. Recently — in the past month or so — the viewership of our Chad Smalley video has been growing exponentially. This is fortuitous because not only do viewers get to witness the irrational vitriol and violence which so commonly spews from pro-abortionists, but they also get to see the mangled, blood-drenched bodies of 10 week old babies killed by abortion – many for the first time. The video has been posted for well over a year now, and has almost 50,000 views. A month ago it was at 30,000. We are getting almost a thousand views a day now. (If you haven’t already seen it, watch below [Warning: extreme language].) Naturally, the number of comments made on the video is also increasing exponentially. Someone just wrote in complaining that the word “babies” is emotionally charged, and that we should only be referring to them as “fetuses.” Using the maximum character limit, here was Tom’s reply: “Fetus” is used deliberately as it makes them seem less human. In order to kill other innocent human beings, it is always necessary to first de-humanize them. It is why in 1857 the Supreme Court declared blacks “a subordinate and inferior class of beings.” It is why Hitler described Jews as “parasites” in Mein Kampf. As Ben Stein wrote, “Pro-aborts are like the Germans who refused to think about what was happening at Dachau and then vomitted when they saw and never wanted to see again.” You can read the 1,500 other comments, or join the conversation yourself by visiting the...

Pregnancy Resource Services, a crisis pregnancy clinic in Bremerton, WA, held a banquet this past week which featured nationally known, pro-life speaker, Scott Klusendorf of the Life Training Institute. Scott gave a fantastic talk on how pro-lifers can make a clear and convincing case for life. You can watch similar talks on YouTube. Afterward, ACP Directors, Tom Herring and Andrew St.Hilaire got to meet Scott and tell him a bit about the ACP. ACP Directors, Tom Herring (Left) and Andrew St.Hilaire (Right) with Scott Klusendorf What Scott Klusendorf has to say about the use of graphic images in the fight against abortion: When it comes to moral persuasion, many times images of death work better than images of life. To cite a parallel example, the modern environmental movement got its start with graphic pictures in the late 1960’s. As activist Jerry Mander points out in his book Four Arguments for the Elimination of Television, initial attempts to mobilize public support for preservation of the giant redwoods produced a giant public yawn. Breathtaking photographs of majestic trees, though inspiring, did little to incite public anger at the timber industry. So, activists took a lesson from the Vietnam War. Instead of showing pictures of pre-cut trees in all their glory, environmentalists began circulating before and after photos. ‘We started carrying around photos of acres of stumps where hundreds of redwoods had been cut down. I don’t know if you have ever seen a field of tree stumps, but it is a horrific sight, not unlike a battlefield.’ The public outcry was immediate. ‘At that moment,’ Mander concludes, ‘I realized that death...
