UNPLANNED

My friend Eevie told me about UNPLANNED months ago when I scrawled it on the wall calendar in the kitchen: "Late March -Abby Johnson movie, Go w EV".  Before we bought our tickets today, we commiserated on Bella, October Baby and Silent Scream.

I told her that, after watching all of the trailers for UNPLANNED, I already knew what my take-away would be:  

That if, instead of taunting women with provocative (annoying) slogans outside of abortion 'clinics', pro-lifers had given away copies of Silent Scream, we'd all be in a different place right now.

That's where all my good stuff went. Given out in front of Edward Allred's FPA  (Family "Planning" Associates") office on Long Beach Boulevard, 2009 +/-.

And for the record, while I was a "sidewalk counselor" there, posted for a two hour shift that I filled once a week for a year, I only heard one outburst that qualified as a "taunt."  Only ONE.  But it wasn't  one really. It was more of an IMPLORE.

And it worked. The recipient of the outburst turned back and took the caller's literature.

You never know what people need at any given moment.

I learned another thing that year...  That most of the women 
going into Allred's exploitation chambers, 
the VAST MAJORITY of them, did not want abortion.  

MEN were making them do it.

Turns out that abortion is the biggest rapist of them all, behind the men who need it to cover up their deplorable sexual excesses.
