Youth, Sacrifices, and the March

—Posted by Elizabeth (January 26, 2012 at 3:17 pm)

It’s 5:50am on a cold and damp Monday morning. Monday, January 23rd to be precise. Seven busloads of students from Franciscan University of Steubenville, along with throngs of high schoolers and young adults, are waiting outside the Verizon Center in D.C. for the Catholic Youth rally before the March for Life.

The doors don’t open until 7, but even though I’m huddled in a group trying to stay warm and asking myself how much, if any, sleep I got on the six-hour bus ride from Steubenville, the general atmosphere on this wet morning is one of enthusiasm and energy. Teens shout out Pro-Life chants and cheers, and a yellow balloon imprinted with ‘LIFE’ is bounced back and forth like a beach ball.

“Do Women Need Planned Parenthood?”

—Posted by John (June 29, 2011 at 1:12 pm)

Just released this morning, here’s Live Action’s latest video:

It looks like Planned Parenthood CEO Cecile Richards was wrong when she claimed last week that Indiana’s defunding of Planned Parenthood would “take away health care from thousands of women in Indiana.”

And the Winner Is…

—Posted by John (March 16, 2011 at 10:23 am)

Here’s the winning entry in the Expose Planned Parenthood Video Contest — not only does it hit on the major points of what’s so bad about the Wal-Mart of the Abortion Industry, but it’s also deeply heartfelt and personal:

—Posted by John (March 3, 2011 at 11:37 am)

Charlie ChaplinGenerations for Life has partnered with Live Action, Students for Life of America, Rock for Life, Right to Life of Central California, Susan B. Anthony List, Teen Defenders, Cherish Life Ministries, Stand True, Students for Life of Illinois, LIFEsocal, Survivors of the Abortion Holocaust, and Pro-Life Action League in sponsoring the Expose Planned Parenthood Video Contest to show America why America’s largest abortion chain must be defunded.

You’ve seen the undercover videos of Planned Parenthood aiding and abetting child sex trafficking, covering up statutory rape, and lying to young girls.

You’ve read the reports about how Planned Parenthoods across the United States have been charged with crimes ranging from covering up illegal late term abortions, not reporting the rape of young girls, and falsely billing the state of California.

Now it’s time to create your own video to tell Congress why they should defund Planned Parenthood. (more…)

“This Corrupt Organization”

—Posted by Elizabeth (February 8, 2011 at 9:15 pm)

In the past eight days, six undercover videos by Live Action have been released showing Planned Parenthood clinics in New Jersey, Virginia and New York willing to assist a pimp and his ring of child prostitutes.

The clinic workers gave instructions encouraging the girls to lie, made a referral to an even more lax abortion clinic, and told the pimp that he could sign as the guardian of the girls coming for abortions. All of this ‘justified’ in the name of confidentiality. (more…)

Another Video Shows Planned Parenthood’s Willingness to Aid Child Prostitution

—Posted by John (February 3, 2011 at 10:34 am)

Just two days after Live Action released an undercover video showing a clinic manager at Planned Parenthood of Central New Jersey coaching a man and a woman posing as sex traffickers how to obtain STD testing, contraception, and abortions for their underage prostitutes, they’ve released another video this morning showing the same thing at a Planned Parenthood abortion facility in Richmond, Virginia:

Planned Parenthood Helps Pimp Cover Up Child Prostitution

—Posted by John (February 1, 2011 at 9:04 am)

Just released this morning, here’s the latest undercover video from Lila Rose and Live Action. This is definitely their most shocking video so far:

From Live Action’s press statement announcing the video’s release:

A Planned Parenthood manager in New Jersey coaches a man and a woman posing as sex traffickers how to secure secret abortions, STD testing, and contraception for their female underage sex slaves, and make their whole operation “look as legit as possible” in an undercover video released this morning.

Thoughts on the March

—Posted by Elizabeth (January 26, 2011 at 2:01 pm)

This past Monday, I took part in my second ever March for Life. While my school, Franciscan University of Steubenville, took seven busloads of students down to D.C., I decided to drive down with four of my close friends.

As expected, D.C. was teeming with Pro-Lifers. I split up with my friends to meet up with my brother who had traveled with his youth group from Chicago. I never made it back to my original group, as I was caught up in the sea of peaceful protesters.

And while I was separated from my friends, I got to better take in the atmosphere around me. The environment was a complete melting pot, from Catholics praying the rosary, to groups like ‘Lutherans for Life’ and ‘Pro-Life Rabbis’. (more…)

Eric Scheidler Visits Ireland to Encourage Pro-Life Youth

—Posted by Eric (November 22, 2010 at 2:26 pm)

Earlier this month I had the great privilege to speak at the second annual “Viva la Vida” pro-life youth conference in Dublin, Ireland.

The conference was hosted at Griffith College by Youth Defence—one of the world’s most dynamic pro-life groups—with hundreds of pro-life youth in attendance from across Ireland and throughout Europe.

After flying through the night from Chicago, I arrived in Dublin the morning of Friday, November 5 with just enough time to snatch a quick one-hour nap before meeting Crossroads’ Dave Bathon and a group of young pro-lifers from Belgium in the lobby of my hotel.

International Protest at Marie Stopes Abortion Referral Center

Together we walked two miles to a protest at the Marie Stopes abortion referral center, where we met up with the regular prayer warriors at the facility. Abortion is illegal in Ireland, but Marie Stopes arranges package deals for Irish women to get abortions in England and the Netherlands. (more…)

The Voice of the People

—Posted by Elizabeth (October 19, 2010 at 6:17 pm)

Sneaking up on us, is our country’s midterm election! As a college student, this is my first ‘meaningful’ election, and you better believe I’ve requested an absentee ballot so I can vote while I’m away at school.

While we won’t be able to get rid of Obama, this is a swing election that could end up changing the balance of power in the Senate and House. So, to be honest, I’ll tell you that it’s stupid not to vote this election.

There, I said it. Now throw your best argument at me. (more…)

Planned Parenthood Golden Gate Loses National Affiliation

—Posted by John (August 18, 2010 at 10:33 am)

The Planned Parenthood Federation of America will cut ties with its San Francisco affiliate office, Planned Parenthood Golden Gate, as of September 3, apparently due to serious financial mismanagement, as its most recent documents filed with the IRS showed a loss of $2.8 million!

Planned Parenthood Golden Gate is probably best known for its infamous 2005 video “A Superhero for Choice,” featuring Dianysis, a “superhero” modeled on PPGG’s CEO Dian Harrison. The video — which PPGG pulled from its website soon after posting it — features, among other things, Dianysis drowning an abstinence educator in a garbage can and blowing up pro-life demonstrators: (more…)

Pro-Life Student Sues Her School and Wins

—Posted by John (August 16, 2010 at 3:47 pm)

A few weeks ago I wrote about a 6th grade girl in California whose mother sued her public school after the administration told her she was not allowed to wear her pro-life T-shirt in school, supposedly because it violated the school’s dress code, which prohibits “inappropriate subject matter.”

This was the design on the girl’s shirt:

“Inappropriate Subject Matter”?

—Posted by John (July 30, 2010 at 1:38 pm)

The mother of a 6th grade girl who was not allowed to wear a pro-life T-shirt at her public school in Merced, California filed a federal lawsuit this week against the school, claiming that the school violated her daughter’s First Amendment rights.

This was the design on the girl’s shirt:
