Pro-Life Future Campaign Sees Successful Launch in Denver: We’re Eradicating Abortion One City At a Time

Students for Life of America’s new Pro-Life Future Campaign is working to change hearts and minds about abortion, one city at a time. A key feature of the campaign is a monthly community door-knocking mobilization in the nineteen cities where the campaign is currently active. By alerting our neighbors to the dangers of the abortion industry and raising awareness about non-violent abortion alternatives, our goal is to reduce the abortion rate in each campaign location directly. One of the cities where we’re working to build a culture of life is Denver, Colorado – one of the states that allows abortion through all

Dear Stop Patriarchy

By: Reagan Nielsen, Midwest Regional Coordinator, and Anna Held, Great Lakes Regional Coordinator

Every January 22 hundreds of thousands of people march on Washington in protest of the Supreme Court’s decision to legalize abortion in the United States. While these pro-lifers gathered by the hundreds of thousands for peaceful prayer, structured speeches, respectful laments for lost lives and positive accounts of pro-life victories, there was a very different phenomenon happening at the top of Capitol Hill.

For some reason, Stop Patriarchy thought it would be a good idea to organize a measly counter-protest in response to the enormous National Pro-Life March. Students for Life of America made it our personal mission to crash their party and instead welcome the oncoming marchers with pro-life chants and signs.

Because we weren’t given the opportunity to chat over tea with these friendly folks, we decided to write them a letter.

Dear Stop Patriarchy,

Hope you had a safe drive back. Many of our students are currently stuck on the Pennsylvania Turnpike and the National Guard had to bring them water. You could call us courageous. Anyway, we just had a couple questions about your protest that we were hoping you could clear up…

Why are you wearing white when you are bleeding? That’s like rule #1, dark pants on those dark days.
How come the men are also bleeding? Is this the same form of biology that tells you that fetuses aren’t babies?
Where are the rosaries? And where are YOUR ovaries?
How come men can’t National Pro-Life March but they can wear chains for “women’s enslavement?”
How come you were screaming at us for hating young women…when we are young women? #awk
When you fell to the ground to lay down, were you getting tired of standing or were you getting nauseous from all the blood? Either way, thanks for giving up the front row spots for us to stand.
Did you actually think the start of the National Pro-Life March was the small group of 200 people and that that the snow scared the other hundreds of thousands of people away? We weren’t really sure what you were trying to do when you ran out to stop them…
What does it feel like to scream in young women’s faces who are kneeling to pray in front of you?
We must misunderstand the word “tolerance”, because shoving people and screaming derogatory slurs doesn’t seem very tolerant to us.
When did women become full human beings? Conception? Birth? Puberty?
