I don't really get it. Does he "get it"? Because I don't.

WTF... "Operation Outcry Silent No More"?

Was he a fetus who survived an abortion attempt? This is too bizzarre.

It's a "global justice ministry" seeking to end abortion worldwide. A part of their strategy is to collect declarations from women who regret their abortions, which they then provide to plaintiffs seeking in court to "end the horror of abortion" to be entered into evidence as proof that (here's where good sense goes to die) all women who get abortions regret their abortions.

Silent No More is their motto.

Okay, I know there are women out there that regret their abortions. I know this because in an earlier lifetime when I was a Catholic seminary student I used to volunteer for Project Rachel. (PR is a Catholic counseling ministry dedicated to assisting individuals suffering depression and/or crises of faith resulting from the death of young children, miscarriage and abortion.) I know that women who regret their abortions are not even the majority of women that have had a pregnancy termination. I don't believe anybody, including OO, really believes they comprise a majority.

I cannot comprehend how OO go to court and commit perjury and the pretzeling of logic with a straight face.

Okay, fine. But choice is still choice.

And what dog does this puffy faced man (I assume he does not have a uterus + vagina) have in the fight?
He seems to be asserting that he has a reason to be fighting in the ring, so to speak. I really would like to know.

Edit to add: that last part was a rhetorical question, and I wouldn't be surprised if most people are just as puzzled as I am, as to what the weirdo's real issue is.
I mean, that is, if it isn't wanting to punish sluts for slutty behavior. Can't let sluts get away without the consequences of unintended pregnancy! That is what it's really about.

Somebody told him what to think. Sigh, oh well. What can you expect from ignorant dipshits like those, who lack an original thought in their brain? I would like to say it's not his fault.

It's okay in the us to verbally attack women over this singular issue. IMO it's a refuge for a LOT of mysoginist assholes who delight in having this issue serve as a justification for their rage and hate.

It's frightening how angry these men are over an issue that doesn't effect them! They wan this power over women and it frankly makes my skin crawl.

Here in Ohio they forced through in our BUDGET amendments to say pregnancy starts when sperm meets egg making a lot of women's birth control a form of abortion. Maybe anyway because we don't know what they're going to do with it. If your IUD is now "abortion" you must pay for an ultrasound! Plus they cut off funding for Planned Parenthood! How do we get it thru the thick Neanderthal heads that 95% of what PP does is cancer screening, STD screening and treatment and birth control? What they're doing will INCREASE abortions and the spread of disease!

Pro-life my ASS!

I'm beyond sickened by this attack on our rights. How do we get all these old, white Republicans out of our state houses?

they are getting is not meant for men? (I am making an assumption here, so please forgive me).

Regret? I bet you do. At some point, I would think, even the most clueless would realize that maybe they went into the wrong office.

Generally I support people who stand on the curb with signs, protesting their wrong, how they were treated by the store, etc.

But in your case I must make an exception.
