Re: “On a Small East Charlotte Street, a War is Waged on Women's Rights”
You know, if you really wanted to counsel women seeking an alternative to abortion, you'd go about it in a different way. You'd advertise your service so women looking for other choices could find it on their own. If you were genuinely concerned and wanted to reach women arriving at the clinic still conflicted, you'd set up a table in a quiet spot near the clinic and talk quietly about other options. If instead, you wanted to control women and shame and traumatize those whose behavior didn't comport with your personal values, then you'd do what these men (and it is mostly men) are doing. If you were really trying to "save babies" or reduce genuine murder rates, you'd work on ending poverty, gun culture and domestic violence; you'd work to improve education, health-care, nutrition and the opportunities that are available to these "babies" throughout their lives. One might even say that if you were really Christian, you'd be more focused on helping the poor than on throwing the first stone.
