Abortion-supporters throw urine, harass pro-lifers at Massachusetts March for Life
 [Life Site] June 10, 2019 (Live Action News) ‐ Seven pro-abortion protestors were arrested on Sunday during the annual Massachusetts March for Life on Boston Common after abortion advocates clashed with pro-life activists.According to the Boston Police Department, more than 600 pro-lifers attended the March ‐ a record number. The Boston Globe reports that they were playing music and listening to speakers as pro-abortion protestors interfered with them. C.J. Williams, the community engagement director for Massachusetts Citizens for Life, told the Boston Herald that two pro-abortion men pushed her and shouted expletives at a group of about 25 pro-lifers as they walked up the street. She also said that an abortion supporter threw urine and a slushie on one of the pro-life speakers. "One of our speakers... who is Black and gay, was assaulted by the other side and had urine thrown on him," Williams said. "It got a little bit hectic there; it was not the dialogue I'd hoped for." The theme for this year's March was "Love in Action," and though the pro-lifers struggled to be heard over the pro-abortion shouts of "pro-life, that's a lie, you don't care if women die," the pro-life speakers shared stories of love and hope that happen when women are able to choose life. Pro-choice protestors in attendance included members of Boston Feminists for Liberation, who assumed the pro-lifers were holding the rally "to celebrate" the new "heartbeat bills" in states including Georgia, Alabama, and Missouri. In reality, the March is an annual event, and this particular year, pro-lifers were aiming to raise awareness of the concerns they have regarding extreme anti-life bills in Massachusetts. They had hoped to have an "open dialogue" with pro-choicers but that turned out to have been impossible this time. Posted by: Besoeker 2019-06-11 |
