Comedy Central features Gen Y pro-lifers
Recently, liberals have been poking fun at the website Until Abortion Ends, where pro-lifers commit to giving up something they like – until abortion ends.
Last night Marion Jones, the daughter of beloved pro-life activist and Until Abortion Ends originator Jason Jones, was asked to appear on the Comedy Central show Tosh.O to explain why she is relinquishing her iPod until abortion ends.
Marion was absolutely amazing. I was so proud of her, a real chip off the old block. Never mind show host Daniel Tosh. We’ve grown used to tasteless attempts to make abortion funny. I simply appreciate that he featured our topic. Marion was more than up to him, articulate and personable and near the end delivering a poignant – and I’m sure unexpected – heart grabber about how abortion has personally affected her. And Marion’s friends were great, too!

The pro-life baton is being passed to those who are more than able. Their generation will see the end of abortion.
Jill Stanek is a nurse turned speaker, columnist and blogger, a national figure in the effort to protect both preborn and postborn innocent human life.
What a nasty, little man.
Jill! We’re Millennials – not Gen-Yers – that’s why we’re so awesome….
Comedy Central is pretty much the perfect place for these people.
George, your generation is awesome no matter what you call yourselves! But I did check into terms for a speech a couple months ago, and “Millennial” is used interchangeably with “Gen Y.”

He is completely vile!!!
I have mixed feelings about Miss. Jones…it is amazing that she was willing to talk to him and she was very polite despite his completely gross responses – but I wish she would have taken it slightly more seriously. I guess through nerves and his responses she laughed a lot and it’s understandable – no one is perfect and she’s a teenager.
On the flip side though – I think it is great that she is young and a girl – the very people who the pro-aborts think support abortion and need it the most. And I love that she brought her friends in and showed that it wasn’t just her – and two out of the tree were also young girls.
We’ll see – if nothing else – it showed a new side to the issue that some may not have seen before.
But he is still completely vulgar and should not be on tv.
WOW! Can’t believe they even tried to make that a comedic issue. Fail on Comedy Central’s part, as it is hard to laugh about that, even for the most hardened advocates. Kudos to Marion as she did a great job keeping it personable and approachable. Showed we’re not all crazy peeps.
Actually, I think it’s good that they’re willing to speak up in a public forum, even if it is a comedy show. I’m also very glad I’ve never bothered to watch his show.
Miss Jones handled him well. She wins hearts being a good-sport rather than a spoil-sport. And Tosh-Zero has “killing” on his abortion card.
He admits that much.
Cranky Catholic – yes I noticed that, too! He also says something about how they will give up these things until the KILLING of fetuses is illegal.
Notice the canned laughter after every sentence? CC can’t find real people to laugh at this vile man’s repulsive “jokes”!
And Marion did a great job! Her laughing at his offensive questions seemed to set him back–I think he was trying/expecting to offend her! Well done!
Marion was amazing! Tosh is disgusting and his “jokes” gave me a stomach ache. Even he seemed to realize he was going too far with his “Were you close?”.
I know you said to “pay no mind” to Tosh, but he even admits that they are fetus’ and yet still makes fun–he doesn’t make “light”–of the process. We take bullying more seriously than we do murder in this country! However, I was completely in awe of how many young, courageous adults are making a stand against abortion!
Joan, is that the best you can do today?
This doesn’t work in Canada! i’ll either have to get a proxy or wait for someone to re-upload it.
I really think some of you need to get a sense of humor. Have you ever seen the Daily Show or South Park? Just because someone makes jokes about something does not mean they are denigrating the issue. Sometimes this is the most effective form of social commentary. If anything, that guy was mocking the pro-choice side more.
I love it! I feel sorry for those children though. They must be growing up in a terrible environment, to be encouraged to embarrass themselves in public like that.
How about “no enforced maternity until abortion ends”.
Kathryn, they weren’t embarrassing themselves in public. They were standing up for their beliefs in public, making sure others could hear their message. Pro-lifers don’t get such a chance a whole lot, where as those who are pro-abortion-choice always do.
They are growing up in a terrible environment, though:
They are living in a world in which killing others of their generation in the womb is legal. They’re either torn up limb from limb, or they are vacuumed out.
They are living in a world in which women, mothers, are hurt because of a procedure which rips a life out of them, can destroy their insides (perforated uterus, cervical lacerations, etc.), and are often forced or coerced into such procedures, but many times there are not people around to help them get out of it.
They are living in a world in which the dangerous side effects of these procedures are denied and covered up.
They are living in a world in which the humanity of other humans is denied, as is the science that proves that humanity.
They are living in a world in which morals are dead, and religion is devalued and scoffed at.
They are living in a world that is scientifically and in all other ways backwards.
I would definitely call that a terrible environment.
Jason,
You must be soooooooo proud of Marion!! I am!! :)
“They are living in a world that is scientifically and in all other ways backwards.” – how do you get that then?
I think I’m going to throw up. Proud of Marion for enduring this. Let’s call it what it is. Murder. Abortion is too nice a word. Murder of an innocent child is funny?! Really?! Wow.
Tosh is a disgusting human being, but so is Sarah Silverman. Comedy Central’s bread and butter.
There will come a day when things funny to ignorant people,is not so funny any more,that day,being JUDGEMENT DAY !!! EVERLASTING HELL FIRE won’t be so funny !!! The tears and innocent Blood shed,WILL be avenged by my Heavenly father !! His word makes that promise !! This stupid,uneducated,vile,nasty,cruel,murdering race of Satanic Evil servants will be judged,punished,and cast into a lake of fire, and then shall heaven and Angels rejoice, as will I, and my “PRECIOUS” little friends this WEAK COWARDLY world has destroyed !!
