That time NARAL held a protest in an empty room
Apparently NARAL is sponsoring #StopTheBans events across the country today.
In particular, NARAL really doesn’t like the 20-week abortion ban. You know, the one that everyone else does, particularly women.
If indeed a picture tells a thousand words, the one below is classic. It shows NARAL Maryland supporters this morning griping to an empty room….
We are participating in #stopthebans with states across the country who are fighting abortion bans! #prochoice pic.twitter.com/tc3u59SE1l

And here’s a close-up of the some of the #stopthebans advocates who were talking to themselves.
It gets better. These people had to be paid to show up. They’re NARAL employees.

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.
who are they talking to?
So these are the faces of on-demand-without-apology. Odd how they refuse to “trust women” who defend the right to life.
I’m just laughing right now at the NARAL employees.
“who are they talking to?”
There might be some people behind the camera, but that would imply that no one wanted the front row seats.
Reminds me of what my dad would always say whenever one of my siblings or I would start a conversation with a nebulous “we”.
“‘We’? Do you have a mouse in your pocket?”
They were having a protest rally for their mice. :3

PFFFFFFFTTTTTTBUWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAA!
Ladies, You are trying to convince the world that killing our children is “reproductive freedom” and “healthcare.”
We can see what you are doing.
No one’s trying to kill your children Del.
Abortion is healthcare and supports reproductive freedom.
We can see what you are doing too.
“Reproductive freedom” has made me a slave…birth control in the water supply, sexually transmitted diseases affecting my quality of life and fertility, increased taxes, and difficulty finding a spouse who hasn’t been influenced by “fembots”. Thankful to have found a good husband and will make sure my children are not influenced by your selfish deceit called “reproductive freedom”.
Pro-choicers gave you STD’s ?? Is that what you’re saying?
What constitutes a spouse who hasn’t been influenced by ‘fembots’?
Your “reproductive freedom philanthropy/theory” is responsible for the rampant spread of STD’s and one who isn’t influenced by a “fembot” is one who understands that being intimate with someone is being open to the idea of having a child. Stop acting like we are supposed to be sexual toys.
How are pro-choicers responsible for you having STD’s? I’d really like to know.
Being open to the idea of having a child without taking any precautions just shows someone under the influence of religion. Same thing.
No one is acting like you’re supposed to be a sexual toy.
Let’s hear more about you reality…ever had any cancers, std’s, infertility, endometriosis, etc., yet?
Being okay with the chopping of children is someone under the influence of eugenics and other evils.
You’re asking me when you haven’t answered the question regarding your claim? Seriously? You said “Reproductive freedom” has made me a slave……sexually transmitted diseases affecting my quality of life and fertility – so how did it give you STD’s? Or is that not the case at all?
Being okay with the chopping of children is someone under the influence of eugenics and other evils. – I don’t know anyone who’s ok with the ‘chopping of children’. But those of us who support womens freedom and rights by abortion being accessible include very few with a eugenics approach to it. And none of us are ‘evil’.
I was clear and you are not forthcoming.
If you are representing the right to abortion and have no idea what is involved in it….Which is chopping up children…I suggest you find another hobby until you have actually been there to witness.
Look it up
No question about it. Abortion is evil. Just describe it.
I was clear – not in the least. You claimed that “Reproductive freedom” has made me a slave……sexually transmitted diseases affecting my quality of life and fertility , so unless you can explain how ‘reproductive freedom’ was responsible I’m left to take it as less than factual.
and you are not forthcoming. – in regard to what?
If you are representing the right to abortion and have no idea what is involved in it…. – I know what is involved.
Which is chopping up children… – well that’s the emotive phrase. Why does the word ‘fetus’ exist?
I suggest you find another hobby until you have actually been there to witness. – how many abortions have you witnessed?
You may consider abortion ‘evil’ truthseeker. That’s your opinion, it’s not factual. For many others it is not ‘evil’.
Well, as a nurse I have taken care of BABIES as early as 20 weeks.
How about you find some pictures or video and post it to your next response..ok? Oh no..your “REAL” response is going to be a question on how to do that….
Copy and paste the link.
Well, as a nurse I have taken care of BABIES as early as 20 weeks. – and?
How about you find some pictures or video and post it to your next response..ok? Oh no..your “REAL” response is going to be a question on how to do that…. – haven’t you been on this site for long? It’s laden with images. That’s a real response.
Copy and paste the link. – try the search facility.
So you’re leaving me to assume that your claim that reproductive freedom gave you STD’s isn’t to be taken seriously?
Reality..are you a man or a woman?
So you are new here. Male.
Was your claim to have caught STD’s from ‘reproductive freedom’ a joke?
HPV, which is the cause of cervical cancer is spread with or without condoms my friend.
HPV, which is the cause of cervical cancer is spread with or without condoms my friend. – your point? Oh, is that why you hold someone else responsible for you getting STD’s?
This is why many, many, many women and men need to hold “reproductive freedom” responsible
They forced you did they? You do realize STD’s existed before the whole ‘reproductive freedom’ concept came along don’t you? And people caught them? Are you sure you aren’t confusing ‘reproductive freedom’ with the ‘sexual revolution’? Good job there’s a vaccine against HPV now then isn’t it.
Oh, is that why you hold someone else responsible for you getting STD’s?
Well, someone else is responsible. But that someone is the individual who gave her the STD, not reproductive freedom.
Incidentally, Jill’s story is false. (Big surprise there). NARAL’s own post says that its staff is going to a press conference, not a protest.
It’s sad that this blog believes that pro-life readers don’t deserve truthful reporting.
Same thing, Different “emotive” phrase.
Ghardisil is dangerous.
Actually, deceit falls on the hands of those who say you can’t get std’s if you use condoms.
Ok…so your “reproductive freedom” boils down to sex..baby….right to butcher. Now there is responsibility for you. Sick!
So you won’t accept responsibility for your own decisions?
Gardasil isn’t as dangerous as HPV Kathy.
Might as well not wear seatbelts then huh.
Reproductive freedom is the freedom to control ones own reproduction. No one says you have to go out and go at it.
I just wonder how much you are being paid on the pro-butcher side to be responding the way you do
i can settle one of these arguments right now. As a veterinarian, I have performed hundreds of obstetric procedures, including dystocias. And yes, fetectomies are in reality the “chopping up” and removal of fetuses. The procedures are extremely unpleasant. Fortunately, I have not had to dismember a live fetus. I pull calves, foals, or pups that are cinched in the birth canal, either from the caudal end (vaginally) or from the cranial end (through the uterus, in which case I remove the littermates via csection).
I have on occasion, dismembered dead foals in-utero with a hook shaped knife that attaches to my index finger. It is a nightmarish experience.
I do not care to envision this procedure of slicing, crushing and tearing on a live mammal. Make no mistake, this is a brutal and horrific experience for the surgeon. I am fascinated(in a bad way)as to how abortionists have become immune to the sensations of crushing and tearing with the curettes and forceps we all hold, while knowing that they are committing this act upon a live being.
I realize that this is mere sentiment, but it is informed by extensive and firsthand experience.
A person who advocates for a woman’s option to procure a surgical abortion should become informed as to the basic procedures by which they are performed.
I don’t get paid, want to get paid or need to get paid Kathy. I do it in support of womens freedom and rights.
Hitler was very controlling, too
He was rather. That’s another good reason for my fighting for womens freedom and rights against those who seek to control them.
Reality, you are not supporting me or my daughter at all. I hope I am wrong, but I really don’t feel like you have very good intentions.
I support your freedom and rights as much as I support any other womans.
My intentions are all good, unlike those who seek to subjugate women.
Your intentions are not good….my daughter is due next week…and you have said nothing to protect her.
Only you can protect her, the choices are all yours. Protect her against what I don’t know. If you wanted to abort you would have had my support. If you want to not abort you still have my support. See, you can’t lose. Nothing but good intentions.
I am now done. I will pray for you.
If there was any purpose to it I’d pray even harder for you. But I do offer you my best wishes and hope your impending motherhood is fabulous.
Kathy, take my advice, the less said to Reality the better.
Congratulations on being a mother in the here and now; even though, your daughter is due to be born in a week. Cloning and three parent embryos aside, an embryo or fetus cannot exist without having a mother and father.
Human cloning isn’t happening yet. Wouldn’t a three parent embryo have at least one mother and father?
Kathy, also just to let you know, Reality likes to get in slick digs.
I used to but now I reside in a fairly average home in the burbs.
If I’ve said it once, I’ve said it a thousand times: don’t feed the troll.
@muppet…you have settled the only point worth arguing about. Surgical abortions performed on living beings ..any beings…is horrible. A Procedure that dismembers a liviing preborn human and then crush its head in order to pull it through the birth canal is beyond sad. In the US, our constitution guarantees “Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Happiness…” I think it is no coincidence that Life is listed first. As a society, honoring life must be the foundation upon which it stands; without it, there is no reason for any other Rights. I am so encouraged that many states are passing laws that respect and honor the most innocent and vulnerable of living beings.

Thanks JDC, but like I’ve said many times, I’m quite happy to do what I can to enlighten people.
