Reactions From The Pro-Aborts To Those On The Sidewalk

The latest 40 Days For Life campaign is off and running, and a few interesting reports have emerged.   Besides the usual yelling, obscene gestures, and threats that most on the sidewalk have endured, there have been the following reports:

Tuscaloosa, Alabama:

As the abortion center closed for the day, one of the employees came out and threw eight small plastic babies on the ground. "I don't know how long you people plan to be here," said the worker, "but this is how many we did today."

"Our group remained silent," said Ryan in Tuscaloosa. "We watched the staff member leave, and prayed for the eight babies and the staff."  The local team decided it would be best to distribute
the plastic babies to vigil participants to carry as a reminder to pray for all the unborn, especially the
eight from this particular day.


"We all deal with trials at our vigils," Ryan said.  "We have faith that God is using us to do His work.
This trial and others are proof that God is at work in these clinics."


In Flagstaff, Arizona:

There was one guy, however, who was taken aback by all of this. He drove by angrily -- then went away and came back with his own sign: "Honk if you hate ignorant people."
It also had an arrow on it. He stood right next to the 40 Days for Life group, with the arrow pointing
in their direction.
A few of the participants tried to talk to him, "but
he was oblivious to any of our arguments." So the group simply continued to pray.


In Beaumont, Texas:

A sign in the window of the abortion center in Beaumont announces the staff’s reaction to the 40 Days for Life vigil outside: "Pray against sidewalk bullies." 

On a related note, a Rockford, Illinois, abortion mill was shut down.  According to mystateline.com:

The Illinois Department of Public Health suspended the license for the Northern Illinois Women's Center on Broadway...until further notice.
According to the suspension notice, "The department found conditions at the facility that are a direct threat to the public interest, health, safety and welfare requiring immediate, emergency action."
The health department cites numerous alleged violations.
According to records obtained by Rockford's Pro-Life Initiative, all three operating rooms failed safety inspections, equipment used to sterilize medical instruments failed tests, the clinic failed a requirement that a registered nurse must always be in the operating room, and shoes were stored inside an open box of surgical gloves.
