In three cities in the U.S. today - namely, Alexandria VA, Detroit MI, and Albuquerque NM, pro-life activists went into local death mills and offered red roses to mothers who were about to have their babies murdered. When confronted by police, they refused to leave and were arrested. I believe all have been released. Moreover, three babies were saved.
I link now to the LifeSiteNews article detailing the Red Rose Rescue effort. Please watch the video; the bottom video is the account of activity at the Alexandria mill; I've worked besides several of the people in various pro-life activism efforts. Below is a video posted by Monica Miglorino Miller, who was at the Detroit rescue. I echo her call at the end, that we would all rededicate ourselves to acting to bring about a Culture of Life.
I have been inclined to believe that this type of rescue involving pro-lifers going into a clinic and physically interfering in the performing of abortion is detrimental to the pro-life movement in general. Forty days for life seems to be very effective as does praying and speaking with women who are about to enter an abortion facility. Perhaps the time has come for this type of rescue since so much has transpired in raising awareness of the evil of, and grave consequences of abortion by various pro-life organizations and public support of changing abortion laws has increased.
ReplyDeleteI hope it at least convinces Catholics to get off their derrieres and do their duty to end baby-slaughter and to bring about a culture of life.
