Press Release: Anti-Choice Project to Bring Abortion Victim Imagery to New Life Tabernacle Church in Houston

ANTI-CHOICE PROJECT TO BRING ABORTION VICTIM IMAGERY TO NEW LIFE TABERNACLE CHURCH IN HOUSTON Houston, Texas – October 30, 2014 – Beginning Sunday, November 2, the Anti-Choice Project (ACP) will be taking its enlarged 4′ x 3′ abortion victim photos to the public sidewalks bordering New Life Tabernacle Church in Houston. Established in 2009, the Anti-Choice Project is a peaceful, all-volunteer, non-profit corporation which uses pictures of first and second trimester abortion victims to educate the public about what abortion does to a baby. According to an October 26, 2014, KHOU article titled, ‘Down in polls, Texas’ Davis recalls own comebacks,’ Rev. Carl Davis of New Life Tabernacle Church is reported as saying, “You know that I don’t believe in abortion. But you know that doesn’t mean I won’t support her [Senator Davis] in other ways.” (http://www.khou.com/story/news/politics/elections/2014/10/26/down-in-polls-texas-davis-recalls-own-comebacks/17966489/) In response, Andrew St.Hilaire, Co-founder of the Anti-Choice Project, said, “New Life Tabernacle Church has recently decided to use its pulpit to advance the political campaign of pro-abortion gubernatorial candidate Wendy Davis. Pastor Carl Davis has asked his flock to look beyond the baby-killing that Senator Wendy Davis supports. But our giant photos of abortion victims displayed outside his church building on Sunday will make that plea impossible.” “Very few Christians know what a first trimester abortion looks like,” said ACP Co-founder, Tom Herring. “But for worshippers at New Life Tabernacle Church, that is about to change.” ACP Houston Director, Jeff Boutte added, “Ephesians 5:11 commands us, without qualification, to ‘expose the deeds of darkness,’ not to show them only privately, and only as a last resort. This Biblical exhortation applies all...

Press Release: Anti-Choice Project to Bring Abortion Victim Imagery to Wilson High School in Tacoma

ANTI-CHOICE PROJECT TO BRING ABORTION VICTIM IMAGERY TO WILSON HIGH SCHOOL IN TACOMA Bremerton, Washington – February 25, 2014 – Beginning Wednesday, February 26, 2014, the Anti-Choice Project will be taking its enlarged 4′ x 3′ abortion victim photos to the public sidewalks bordering the campus of Woodrow Wilson High School in Tacoma, Washington. Established in 2009, the Anti-Choice Project is a peaceful, all-volunteer, non-profit corporation which uses first and second trimester abortion victim images to educate the public about what abortion does to a baby. Andrew St.Hilaire, Co-founder of the Anti-Choice Project noted that, “The record of public school officials in Washington State continues to be a moral outrage. In 2010 administrators at another Washington State high school helped a 15-year old girl receive a pass, get into a taxi, and obtain an abortion during school hours and without parental knowledge or consent (http://www.judicialwatch.org/). Beyond simply refusing to educate students about the truth of abortion, administrators at Wilson High have gone one step further and silenced attempts made by students like Bryce to share this information amongst themselves. Starting Wednesday, February 26th we will be circumventing the censorship of staff and educating the students of Wilson High about the horror of abortion from the sidewalks outside their classrooms.” “Very few Americans know what a first trimester abortion looks like,” said Anti-Choice Project co-founder, Tom Herring. “But for the 1,500 students and staff at Wilson High, that is about to change.” Co-founder Andrew St.Hilaire added, “Some who profess a right to abortion say our pictures are too horrible to display in public. But if abortion really is a morally...

Press Release: Anti-Choice Project Responds to Attempt by Olympic College to Restrict Free Speech Rights

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: September 29, 2010Anti-Choice Project responds to attempt by Olympic College to restrict free speech rights (Bremerton, WA) Following a decision made this summer by the Olympic College Board of Trustees, the state college plans to revise its free speech policies, relegating non-students who wish to exercise their First Amendment rights to an obscure location described by the school paper as the “least visible on campus” (“OC Adopts New Regulations,” The Olympian, 9/21/2010). The board’s decision comes after a member of the Anti-Choice Project (www.antichoiceproject.com) — a non-profit organization based in Bremerton, Washington, which uses pictures of abortion to reveal the humanity of the unborn child and the inhumanity of abortion — peacefully protested on campus with 3’x4’ hand-held signs during the 2009 and 2010 academic school years. The Anti-Choice Project rejects out of hand the decision made by the administration of Olympic College that free speech can be limited to an obscure and nearly-invisible area of campus. Under the new policy, students would still enjoy their First Amendment rights in all free speech areas, but non-students would be restricted to the administration’s carefully selected locations. Tom Herring, Co-Founder of the Anti-Choice Project said, “What this administration is attempting to do borders on the comical as a ‘free speech area’ denied to non-students is by definition a restricted-speech area. Not as comical are the fines which accompany such discriminatory policies infringing on citizens’ First Amendment rights.” As Olympic College receives funding from the taxpayers of Washington State, its campus is public property. Property in which, Herring explains, the rights of citizens — members of the Anti-Choice Project...
