    Comments:

    Did anyone read the link about the things the abortionist was saying to the sidewalk counselors?

    I'm not going to repeat those things here, but just know they were disgusting. I hope he gets tossed in jail and has all of the hate crime laws thrown at him!

    Yes, it was repulsive, Lauren. What a stark contrast to the message of peace and love in Rev Hoye's letter.

    Why are all of these links to stories on lifenews and Lifesite?

    I look at those websites everyday, I don't need to see them here as well..

    Andrew, not everyone reads lifenews and/or lifesite.
