Christian Newswire: "Abortion is being GLAMORIZED on Mother's Day"

SIOUX FALLS, South Dakota, May 13 /Christian Wire Service/ -- Post-abortive women across the country are set to endure the hardest day of the year this weekend, Mother’s Day.

"As a woman who has had an abortion, I know the agony women are feeling this weekend," said Karen Nelson, South Dakota state coordinator for Silent No More, a coalition of women who regret their abortion decisions. "This is the day when we remember that if we had not been coerced into abortions, we would be enjoying the company of a child. Instead of caring for our babies, we realize that we killed them. No amount of feel-good fund-raisers will remove our pain."

This weekend, some powerful special interest groups will be celebrating the right to kill children through fund-raisers aimed at filling the pocketbooks of abortion providers. The majority of South Dakotans realize that this is an odd way to spend Mother’s Day.

"The fact that abortion is being glamorized on Mother's Day should raise eyebrows," said Barb Frick, a member of Silent No More. "Why would Planned Parenthood connect the killing of unborn children with the celebration of motherhood, Mother's Day? Clearly, these outside groups are calloused and can't understand that South Dakotans believe motherhood is something to be valued and honored. We don't want Planned Parenthood’s harmful practices being pushed on our women and children."

10. Yeah, I saw it too
That made me run out and buy a pair of aborted fetus ear rings for tomorrow's celebration. A gal has got to accessorize, you know.

:sarcasm:


If it weren't for the repubs gutting mental health care, the woman in the OP might be able to attend to her underlying issues. Does the anti-choice gang advertise to find people like her??

5. More Christian anti-women, anti-children shit
If they cared about women and children they would advocate for rights.

Many European countries pay mothers to stay at home for two years and of course offer complete health care.

7. WTF?
"We don't want Planned Parenthood’s harmful practices being pushed on our women and children."

Seems to me it's not PP running around telling women what they must or may not do. These fundie freaks really like to twist things around, don't they?
