The Stakes


posted by Sybil Vane
While the anti-choicers get to work trying to drum up a holy war in the fight for women's bodies, don't be distracted into thinking we all need to step back a bit and see the forest for the trees.

Because these are the trees. A young woman being prosecuted because she induced her own abortion at home. Who had to go into hiding while awaiting trial because her home was firebombed.

Also don't forget to remember that these people are crazy.

As part of the memorial, each cross will contain a "certificate of spiritual adoption" — a pink or blue certificate that symbolizes a life lost to abortion. For a $5 donation, supporters can add their name to a certificate, choose a baby name and pledge to pray for the being's soul. Each certificate is then rolled up and slid into a cross.

"Choose a baby name?" For $5? How dare you think you have the right. How dare you.
