Video: Protest at Bremerton High School – Part 1

The Anti-Choice Project recently paid a visit to Bremerton High School to show students there something their teachers refuse to show them: what abortion means to a defenseless baby. High school students can seek abortions, even without their parents knowledge… much less their consent. Kids old enough to have an abortion are certainly old enough to see an abortion.

ACP Comment on Kitsap Sun: Photos Are Enlarged

“Cean,” a user on the Kitsap Sun writes: “The photos they display are a lie, as they are enormously enlarged.”  The images used by the Anti-Choice Project and the Center for Bio-Ethical Reform accurately depict what effect abortion has on the unborn child. These images of aborted babies are pictured with a common object, such as a coin or a hand to give perspective, so no matter how enlarged, anyone can recognize that the victims here are often smaller than a quarter. But their deaths are no less disturbing, and no less horrifying because of their size. In fact, we should express even greater outrage at an injustice whose victims are so small they cannot even defend themselves. Nearly every billboard you pass down the street has pictures of enlarged people and products on them. If they were to show the actual size of the cell phone, hamburger, or whatever it was being advertised, you wouldn’t see it driving by at 25 mph. And so we enlarge images of once tiny and precious human beings, who were torn limb from limb and pitched in the trash, in order that their unjust killing might be known and exposed to the light of human conscience. “Like a boil that can never be cured as long as it is covered up but must be opened with all its pus-flowing ugliness to the natural medicines of air and light, injustice must likewise be exposed, with all of the tension its exposing creates, to the light of human conscience and the air of national opinion before it can be cured.” – Dr. Martin Luther...

Making Abortion Impossible to Ignore or Trivialize

From the Kitsap Sun: Rob Rudnick would rather be flipped off than ignored. Driving a box truck with graphic, billboard-sized pictures of aborted human fetuses on it, he gets a lot of both. Rudnick, of Bend, Ore., was cruising Wheaton Way, Warren Avenue and Highway 303 on Monday afternoon as part of the Center for Bio-Ethical Reform’s Reproductive “Choice” Campaign. Rudnick, 55, said he would prefer a negative reaction than none at all. “So far today I’m not seeing as many thumbs up,” he said from the driver’s seat. “It’s usually very polarized. Either I’m getting a thumbs up or the bird, but mostly I get indifference, which is the least healthy of all responses.” Local groups have long demonstrated against abortion, often carrying signs with pictures like those splashed on the truck. But they’ve never had a vehicle like this to elevate the issue. “One picture is worth a thousand words, and I believe this picture is worth a thousand sermons,” Rudnick said. “It’s like a television where you can’t change the channel.” The protesters strive for shock value to make abortion impossible to ignore or trivialize, said Glenn Stockton, president of Bremerton-based Samuel’s Hand Coalition. “The tendency is to have an emotional reaction and blame the person holding the picture,” he said. “We understand that, because it does evoke strong emotions, but the intent is to educate people about what goes on inside abortion facilities. We believe that once that is known and clearly understood and people witness these horrifying photographs, that the killing will stop.” Stockton invited friend Darius Hardwick, Northwest operations director for Center for...
