Warning: Explicit and vulgar language contained in this post. Speaking in reference to my audibly-shaky voice when responding to Chad Smalley (who has been charged by the Poulsbo Police Department with a misdemeanor for inciting a fight in this video), YouTube user kiastar67 writes: “He was a PUSSY and afraid. Stop lying. You fucktards are sad and OBVIOUSLY lying. He was saying he was sorry for showing the kid as you can tell in his inflection and tone. You instigate BS and get scared when someone gives it back.You people are sad and small and do it because you THRIVE on drama. I would have done worse,.You lucked out that he didn’t curb stomp your ass.TAKE YOU LUMPS AS YOU DESERVE THEM AND STOP HIDING BEHIND A SIGN,” I write in reply: “He was a PUSSY and afraid.”…”You people…do it because you THRIVE on drama.” I’m confused. Are we scared of the drama that follows our protests or are we protesting because we thrive on the drama? For the record, by the time Mr. Smalley’s spittle was hitting my face I had made up my mind not to fight back. Yes, my nerves were shot; guilty as charged. But I was not apologizing to appease Chad or to ask forgiveness for showing the picture to his son. Rather, I was sorry that his son had to see the pictures, and I was responding in the negative to Mr. Smalley’s request we get off “his” street. The whole point of standing on a sidewalk with a large sign depicting dismembered children is to show the horrifying, conscience-pricking truth to a...

In an even more aggressive effort to discourage tobacco use, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) recently released graphic warning labels that it will require be placed on cigarette packs by the fall of 2012. Here are just a few examples: By forcing smokers to view these disturbing images, the FDA is sending a clear message: maybe something so harmful to your lungs, teeth, and throat is not such a good idea. This is an effective approach to truth in advertising which we thought should be applied to the abortion industry as well. Notices placed on the front doors of every Planned Parenthood and abortion facility across the country, warning women about the reality of abortion. Here’s just one example: We think the message is clear: maybe something which does this to your baby is not such a good idea. What do you...

Abortion is legal, but it is certainly not rare or safe for women and their unborn children. Thanks to the good folks at Abortion in Washington and their excellent investigative reporting, we now know with certainty what a recent ambulance visit to Planned Parenthood in Everett, WA was all about. Nothing to see here. Planned Parenthood staff attempts to cover up the scene. Today, AIW released the audio of a Planned Parenthood staffer named Pamela calling 911, on March 18, 2011, to report that they needed transportation to the hospital for a “patient who is bleeding.” Listen to the audio here: This is not the first botched abortion in recent memory. So-called “safe” abortions come with a laundry list of complications, not to mention a lifetime of regret for the mother. Like abortion’s devastating effect on unborn children, so must we expose its effect upon...

Prominent columnist and pro-life blogger Jill Stanek linked to our event last weekend in Seattle, which, with her wide readership, generated over a hundred comments, and led to a subsequent headline on LifeSiteNews.com. Here is one exchange buried in the comment section of Jill Stanek’s blog. “Were any of you even at the rally?” -JB I held the camera. “Planned Parenthood’s primary service is NOT abortion, it is prevention.” -JB Arguing over what their “primary” service is is irrelevant. PP is directly responsible for the deaths of more than a quarter million American babies every year. I am not in the habit of weighing any perceived good someone does against the lives of babies he ends. You cannot shelf the baby killing and engage in rational discussion of positive attributes of PP any more than we could shelf the Jew killing and discuss positive attributes of Hitler. (If Godwin is a sticking point for you, just replace Hitler with Pol Pot.) “The rally wasn’t for abortions, it was for Planned Parenthood.” -JB Again, you’re trying to divorce Planned Parenthood from baby killing, and so long as they remain the nation’s largest abortion provider, that just isn’t possible. Imagine if I attended a rally in support of federal funding for the Ku Klux Klan, and you showed up with pictures of blacks being lynched. What would you think if I posted that the rally wasn’t for lynching blacks, it was for the KKK? “As far as the pro-life protesters who showed up, they should have read what the rally was actually for. We were not looking for a debate between...

Yesterday, March 19th, the Anti-Choice Project took Planned Parenthood up on their invitation to stand with them during an hour-and-a-half rally at Cal Anderson Park in Seattle. You can imagine their surprise when we joined the crowd carrying 4′ X 3′ pictures of what babies look like as they leave Planned Parenthood. Marc Snyder, director of ACP Seattle, organized the counter protest which included 11 ACP volunteers. Planned Parenthood rallied a few hundred pro-aborts to listen as members of Planned Parenthood and of public office (including King County Executive Dow Constantine (D)) decried attempts by our new congress to cut millions in federal subsidizing of Planned Parenthood, and gave testimony to the greatness of the abortion giant. This was no easy task, as each speaker attempted to extol the virtues of an organization responsible for the carnage displayed on 11 signs around them. Many of the pro-aborts in attendance scrambled to do whatever they could to prevent the images from being seen. Yet no one was able to answer the question posed to them, “If abortion is a morally defensible choice, why do you feel the need to cover it up?” (One woman covering my sign even responded sincerely, “That’s a good question.”) One thing is clear. Pro-lifers dispute the power and effectiveness of using abortion pictures to change hearts and minds. Pro-aborts do...
