In her August 18th letter, Danielle Rye says she is offended when she sees our aborted baby pictures along the streets of Kitsap County. She imagines this disruption of her otherwise pleasant commute as a bad thing, but effective social reformers know that individuals need to be bothered about an injustice before enough people will rise up to stop it.

When it is seen, everything changes. As abolitionist William Wilberforce once said, “You may choose to look the other way, but you can never again say you did not know.” Ms. Rye is outraged that her child saw our signs, but these images save lives and lives trump feelings in our book.

Earlier this month, our newest chapter in Missoula, Montana began hitting the streets to show those in Missoula what abortion means to unborn babies.

If you are near Missoula and would like to get involved, please email us at...
