3rd Annual Ask Them What They Mean By “Choice” Blog Day
It’s that time of year again, when NARAL Pro-Choice America hosts its annual Blog for Choice Day on January 22, the anniversary of the infamous Roe v. Wade decision.
Likewise, for the third year in a row, pro-lifers will counter with our Ask Them What They Mean When They Say “Choice” Blog Day.
Or Mean Choice Day, for short.
Ironically, Planned Parenthood just announced it was abandoning the term “pro-choice.”
So I guess we could add an Ask Them Why They Blog For Choice When They No Longer Like It Blog Day.
Etc., etc. I’m sure you can think of several other questions to ask.
I’ll post the names and URLs of all blogs and websites that email me or add a comment that they’re participating.
This year we’ve added a Facebook Events page, so you can join there as well.
The plan is simple.
Every year NARAL uses the anniversary of the day abortion was legalized throughout the United States to promote “choice.”
And for the last two years pro-lifers have not let them get away with obfuscating what that “choice” actually is.
We devote the day online to calling abortion proponents out – writing our own blog posts on the real meaning of “choice,” commenting on their blog posts, and questioning all their Facebook and Twitter blather.
We will also make good use of their designated Twitter hashtag, #Tweet4Choice.
Feel free to use our graphic. Thanks once again to pro-life graphic designer Kimberly of Spectacle Graphics for creating it.
Stay tuned!
So excited about this! I’d love to spread the Facebook event, but your link is not working (it just takes me to my FB event calendar, not the individual event). Is that a problem with my computer, or the link? Thanks!

Can’t wait! I don’t get how they can say they are abandoning the term then have a big event with that term used as their focus LOL! Yet another inconsistency the Pro-choice people seem to have a big problem with that don’t they.
I have some special Pro-life graphics for the Anniversary of Roe v. Wade on my blog if anyone would like to use them feel free. :)

I hope to add some more later this week and will add them to the blog and my Facebook page when I do. Let’s all show them that their “choice” or whatever they want to call it (have they ever decided what they do want to call themselves now?) is not a choice at all it’s just killing and maiming.

Hopefully Twitchy will pay attention and publish the tweets.

Evidently the NARAL did not get the memo about deleting ‘choice’ from the ‘dead babies r us’ lexicon of sanctioned euphemistic expressions.
If the barbarians really want to express their true feelings, then I recommend tee shirts and bumper sticker emblazoned with: Hate god; choose death

Guess they finally decided it never really was about choice, after all.

I can’t get Blogger to open up the “add photo” to add your graphic and I’m not techy, so I added this round up in words!

One of the comments ~ GREAT time for a plug since apparently, Texas just had another school shooting. Please visit http://www.lilithfund.org and give generously. Texas women need options for choice so they can gather enough money to move OUT. Rick Perry is quickly losing control down there.https://www.facebook.com/PlannedParenthoodAction/posts/476223542434979
How sick using a school shooting to promote killing unborn children!
