Anti-Choice Protesters out front of Churches in my area
Most with signs that say crap like "God is against abortion, are you?"


anyone else seeing this shit? I swear I am ready to jump out of my car and get into a shouting match.

What came to mind when I saw that sign was.. Of course God is for abortion, but when he does it everyone calls it a miscarriage. Tasteless, I know. I didn't say it, I just kept driving but I don't know if I can stop myself every time if they keep this shit up for the next 2 weeks.


Any better ideas how to deal with these people other than a direct confrontation or simply ignoring them?








P.S. They also have crosses set up in mock cemeteries with a huge sign that reads 50,000 Americans killed by abortions.

soo sooorrrryyy.....but it would only be "FUCK YOU!!!" for me....they are too stupid to be reasoned with, but they don't like it when they get shouted at, I have done it...yelled at a lady telling me how "Obama Stinks!" after I had to read her pro-life bumper stickers for the few miles I followed her. My car is very pro-obama, with most of the glass filled with signs. My best ones say "END EIGHT YEARS OF DISGRACE"!

edited to add:

CHange, HOpe, OBama........!

4. A friend of mine
used to keep a sign in his car, a big one on a long pole, and when he'd come across really stupid demonstrators, he'd get out and join them.

His sign read "I'm surrounded by assholes."

Try it.

12. Or here's another...
a friend of mine did:

"I'm an Idiot" and he stood in the middle of them. It took them quite awhile to pick up on it.

5. I saw a Youtube film where the film maker kept asking them what they would do to the mom
if abortion was illegal. The question really had never occurred to them. It made their heads spin, an interesting way to overcome their brainwashing.

13. Make your own sign...
Edited on Sat Oct-18-08 09:21 PM by fudge stripe cookays
after enlarging the picture of dead Gerri Santoro to put on it:

Outlawing it won't stop abortion; it only kills women.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gerri_Santoro

They always use dead fetuses in their signs. Shock em back, the sanctimonious fucks.
