Are You a Pro-Life Minion?

Good day fine and admirable pro-life minions,

What is a pro-life minion you ask? I first saw the phrase “pro-life minion” in a post post on the “Abortioneers” blog. And what would define one as a pro-life minion? Three questions came to mind.

First, do you personally find abortion disgusting? Few other words properly describe abortion. No one likes to look at abortions or talk about them. That’s why pro-life advocates keep the images on hand and why abortion advocates

Pro-life advocates at the 2010 "March for Life" in San Francisco, CA.

become angry when the images are displayed. Personal opposition to abortion is a first important step towards becoming pro-life.

Secondly, do you believe that life begins at conception? There are many reasons to believe this. Many scientists, doctors, philosophers, ethicists, Christians, Muslims, Jews and even atheists believe it. It’s not exactly a religious question after all. It’s an important question and if human life does begin at conception, than we every right and obligation to defend it.

Thirdly, do you want to see abortion go away forever everywhere? It’s one thing to think it and quite another to say it. If abortion is a violation of a child’s right to live, and wrong for one person, that it’s wrong for every person. People have a right and perhaps even an obligation to make a public stand for what they believe is right. That’s why “pro-life minions” publicly challenge the idea that anyone has a legal right to acquire an abortion.

In the original inspiring posting from the “Abortioneers”, an ardent abortion advocate wrote the following:

Somewhere between the man-crazies who are somewhat, simply corralled into one, large lump of woman-haters, Anti-Anti’s sexy antis, the nuns, and the innocent children antis—there perched, is a Lila Rose, and her dozen or so minions, hell-bent on clawing abortion’s eyes out.

The pro-life movement is about one person and one person alone; the unborn person. While Lila Rose has become a prominent voice in the pro-life movement, her presence is but a reminder to the abortion establishment of a long coming defeat. Like American abolitionists who fought slavery, whose views were controversial in their early struggles, a new kind of abolitionist works for the end of abortion in America.Mom Chose Pro-Life Shirt

The number of pro-life minions are more than a dozen. We are more than mere numbers in opinion polls. We are the souls and citizens who give abortion advocates migraines. We are people who truthfully would like to see abortion finally and decisively vanish from the landscape of human society. 38 years ago, we were told abortion would be safe and rare. We’ve been told many things about abortion, most untrue. It’s time for an end to the endless lies.

The following was also written about Lila Rose. It’s the sort of rant that many pro-life minions encounter.

However pretty or presidential or conniving or meditating Lila Rose and her blah blah mission to save innocent life may be, if she were walking into any medical arena other than the ever-non-judgmental and accommodating world of reproductive justice, she’d be slapped with the paranoid schizoid label and medicated into a California corner where she could write, unplanned parenthood, all over the walls into eternity.

Non-judgmental? Accommodating? There is no tolerance in these words, or charity for that matter. What I see however, is person immersed in a culture of abortion who’s never been shown real tolerance or charity. The person who believes that abortion is good is simply another victim. We must work for all of abortion’s victims. We must persevere. We must run the race to the finish and never tire or waver. Victory is at hand.

God bless you all, fine pro-life minions,

    Great post overall.  One criticism, however: I think that citing a “belief” that life begins at conception weakens the position.  We *know* – from scientific evidence – that mammalian life begins at conception.  What we *believe* is more along the lines of human equality, the value of human life, etc.  Calling the fact that life begins at conception gives pro-choicers the impression that the question of when life begins is a religious or philosophical position, not a scientific one.

    • Hope to the hopeless

      I agree with you. We can’t let pro-choicers run over science.

    Please do NOT compare Lila Rose to an abolitionist… she is not putting her very life on the line to save an entire race of people from the shackles of bondage and torture. She is self-important parrot of party line talking points who looks like Maeby Fünke and has a baby voice. She is NOT Harriet Tubman.

    • Merrill

      Perhaps you haven’t heard that Pro-Life leaders get death threats. Lila Rose is putting her life on the line for an group of people who are discriminated against not necessarily because of race but because of age. And if you do some research, minorities are the target of abortions; in particular, the African-American community is targeted. 

      Lila Rose is doing what many people in our nation doesn’t have the guts to do; she is sacrificing herself not just some of her time or some of her money. She has dedicated herself to making a real difference in this world. 

      And you’re right she isn’t Harriet Tubman. Each human being is unique from conception; there are no repeats. 

      • MrEman

        I doubt that Ms. Rose has received any death threats. And though it is completely wrong that any pro life “leader” would receive a death threat, they are just that… threats, and idle ones. The only assassination of pro life leaders, that I know of, is character assassination. Usually the extreme violence is reserved for abortionists, nurses, and escorts BY pro lifers.

        • oldmanbob

          There is no such thing as an idle death threat.  Try hearing someone say “I going to Kill You!” as I have been told.  Not in the context of abortion by the way so I’m no hero in this area.  I assure you that such a statement really gets your attention.  Do not be stupid and down play such a threat.
          Those who kill abortionsists etc. are not part of the real pro-life cause.  Being pro-life means being pro-life and nothing more.

        • Karimfaz

          MrEman
          You are very naive to think that only pro-aborts are the only ones to have been killed in this debate.  They are the only ones to make it into the mainstream media, but I assure you that pro-lifers have also been killed by pro-aborts.  This is a dangerous debate all the way around.  Passions get heated and people do stupid things.

        • Chukwudi

          Typical head in the sand attitude of a Pro-choicer, please do keep it up Mr MrEman, It keeps showing u for what you are…

        • minionmom

          There is no way she hasn’t received death threats.  I was physically threaten by a pro abort woman 20 years ago.  I guess I am just stupid for being scared from this “idle” threat standing over me.  And over years of protests, I have NEVER seen any violence towards abortionists, nurses, ect.  Most accusations are made up.

          • Pickles

            So I take it you are ignoring the fact an abortion doctor was assassinated. 

        • Lunabrikkz

          I hate to break it to you, pro-choicer, but Catholics are….surprise SUPPOSED TO BE AGAINST ABORTION SUPPOSED TO BE AGAINST HOMOSEXUAL MARRIAGES AND SUPPOSED TO BE AGAINST ALL IMMORALITIES ACCORDING TO CHURCH TEACHINGS

          Any Catholic who is in dissent to Catholic teachings is in mortal sin.
          Any non-Catholic who don’t like Catholic teachings….tough cookies…sucks to be you.

          • Lunabrikkz

            If she’s against all the stuff you suggested then she’s in good standing with the church….so once again.sucks to be you.

        • Lunabrikkz

          It is also a myth that pro-lifers are more violent than pro-choicers. Its just that the media covers up the scandalous actions of the pro-abort side.

      She is doing the same thing.  She is working to save the lives of thousands of people who are facing the prospect of dying by abortion!

    • Hope to the hopeless

      “party line talking point”? When has Lila been about any political party? I think you are throwing around accusations.

      Harriet Tubman was a great woman who worked to save lives and I think Lila is doing the same thing. Both heros of the human race for their compassion and acts of love.

      • MrEman

        Lila Rose is all about the GOP:

        -Anti abortion
        -Anti birth control
        -Anti sex
        -Very catholic, Opus Dei in fact, which supports corporal mortification,  is extremely right-leaning,  and is arguably misogynistic
        -Anti gay (she supports Speak Now Girl Scouts, who are anti gay, oh and she’s catholic)
        -Pro republican politician
        -Anti Obama
        -Always on Fox News
        -Always attending (and speaking at) GOP conferences
        -Live Action partially funded by Raymond Ruddy of Gerard Health Foundation, who has disbursed more than $7 million to causes of the Christian Right
        -Has links to the PR firm of the Republican National Committee
        -At UCLA Rose was an active member of the Bruin Republicans
        -Trained with the Leadership Institute, a conservative organization in Washington

        Lila Rose has also compared herself to Martin Luther King, Jr. and Mamie Carthan, the mother of Emmitt Till. Unlike them, and Harriet Tubman, Ms. Rose will be lost in the annals of history – consigned to being but a footnote in the dusty memory of those who were unfortunate enough to witness her extremism firsthand.

        • Brian F Hudon

          How much money does the abortion lobby donate to pro-abortion candidates? How much money has been spent to protect this so-called right that people allegedly agree upon, this settled matter and settled law? Do people of their own initiative contribute tirelessly for 38 years to end a single destructive practice because of party politics? Abortion is not a political question. It’s a human question, about human rights, about how we as human beings have our being and where we come from. Questions that are not properly answered do not go away. Roe v Wade, privacy, reproductive health, a woman’s body, my choice, my body and all the other slogans and euphemisms about abortion are smoke and mirrors to distract from an honest authentic discussion that asks a fundamental human question; When do human lives begin and what are our moral obligations to protect and cherish them?  

          • MrEman

            Like it or not, (and I certainly don’t,) abortion IS a political issue. Pro lifers have made damn sure it is. And sure, not all pro lifers are republican, but the vast majority of republicans are pro life; it is in the party platform.

            My biggest qualm with this article is the comparison of Ms. Rose with abolitionist heroes, especially given that she has compared herself to other icons like MLK… it’s outlandish, and in actuality amounts to little more than a cult of personality.

          • chukwudi

            Yes it is outlandish to you because for you abortion is a none issue, you don’t see it as worth any air time and hence it vexes u, so boo woo, she is here to stay, Thank God…
            And what is more? She is comparable to all those great figures because she stands for what is right and I think that single feature makes each and every of those individuals you talked about stand out…
            And here again you show your double standards, typical pro-choice, you say she ain’t worth it because she tend to be political and it annoys you that she compares her self to another political icon MLK? MrEman your hypocrisy and attempts at muddling the facts both stuns and saddens me…… and makes me all the more happy about Lila’s persistence :-)

          • Anonymous

            I think that anyone who compares him or herself to Martin Luther King is an egotistical narcissist.  Doesn’t matter what party they’re in.

        • Hope to the hopeless

          I still don’t see one connection with Lila pushing a political party. Please answer my question. When did Lila speak for the GOP?

          • MrEman

            Are you serious?! And why would this even be point of contention?!

            For one, she has spoken at The Family Research Council’s “Values Voter Summit”, which is a political conference for conservatives and GOP elected officials.

            She was also profiled in the CNN documentary “Right on the Edge,” which documented young conservatives. The only reason Live Action doesn’t “come out of the closet” as being a partisan, conservative Republican group is because it would put their tax exempt status in jeopardy.

          • MrEman

            whoops.. double post. Sorry.

          • Chukwudi

            Well MrEman, I think she should in every way be compared to abolitionist because she does put her life on the line, and the funny thing is that the person saying she is not to be compared is one like you has done nothing, absolutely nothing to help the cause, you are the only one here who is self serving in this instance…

            O course they say if you don’t get criticism no matter how uncalled for, you have not began to make impact. So Thanks oh ye faceless detractor for making her relevance more prominent by putting forward such claims, for all reading to further appreciate what she sounds like…
            the funny part is that u sound so much like the standard pro-choice individual: gently sifting away the gains made and focusing on non-existent public faults. U did it well but it was all so cliche, come up with something more original next time…

          • MrEman

            How does she put her life on the line?! That’s a bit of a stretch. 

            Of course I’ve done nothing to help your cause. My cause is the exact opposite, to protect the right of a woman’s choice. And I’ve done plenty for that.. still do.
            Relevance? Gains? She leads a fringe political group that the media debunks, if not outright ignores.

            But keep up the hero worship, you shameless sycophants.

          • Chukwudi

            Ha ha, u r responding to a fringe political group aren’t u…
            And your argument is that the media don’t respond to her right? But yet the nation, and the world at large responds to her despite this(I’m A Nigerian by the way). So you see, MrEman who adores constantly abortion practices, ONE WITH GOD IS MAJORITY…. :-)

          • MrEman

            I respond because I try to combat the epidemic of ignorance that pervades society.

          • Chukwudi

            Ha ha, 
            How condescending…
            There is this saying though: Remove the board from your eyes, before you try to remove the speck from another’s…
            MrEman, thanks for your gracious attempts, but heal urself first, thank you, lol

          • FactsPlease

            You might want to check your facts a bit more carefully before making such a harsh claim (“Lila Rose is all about the GOP”):

            - Anti abortion

            Correct I, can’t disagree with you there.  She agrees with the Republican Party on one issue.

            - Anti birth control

            Not
            in the same sense that she opposes abortion.  She has not called for
            birth control to be outlawed, or for all organizations that provide it
            to be defunded.

            Lila does, however, believe that it is
            counterproductive to the cause of ending abortion.  This is because it
            promotes an ideology that separates sex from reproduction, which has led
            to an environment that views children as a consumer product and
            unwanted children as waste to be disposed of (along with a host of other
            social problems).  In this environment, killing a baby before birth is
            not unthinkable.  It is difficult to argue that the “sexual revolution”,
            which resulted in the legalization of abortion, would have made it to
            “first base” without the advent of contraception.

            Not everyone
            who is pro-life agrees with this position.  Some point to studies that
            show a decrease in abortion rates coinciding with the availability of
            contraception.  Other studies, however, show the exact opposite.  There
            are places like New York City where the abortion rate is extremely high
            in spite of some of the most widespread contraception in the nation. 
            This would suggest that either way, contraception is not the miracle
            cure to society’s abortion problem.  I believe that there is room for
            debate on this issue.  People in good conscience who fully support human
            rights for unborn children can be and are on both sides.

            Lila
            has supported abstinence education in the past however (which agrees
            with the Republican platform), so I’ll give you this one as well.

            - Anti sex

            This
            is where it starts to get weird.  Nobody is “anti-sex”. 
            “Anti-promiscuity” or “pro-monogamy” would be more accurate.  And this
            isn’t exactly a part of the GOP platform, it is part of the Catholic
            Church’s teachings.

            - Very Catholic, Opus Dei

            The Catholic
            Church is not associated with a political party.  In fact, clergy are
            not allowed to run for office or openly endorse candidates.  Not all
            Catholics are Republicans, and not all Republicans are Catholic.

            I
            haven’t seen evidence that Lila is a member of Opus Dei.  An Opus Dei
            centre did lead her to become Catholic, but that does not imply
            membership (which is quite exclusive and takes time).  Even so, Opus Dei
            is not nearly as extreme or fascinating as Dan Brown would have you
            believe.  See:

            http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/comment/faith/article575959.ece

            http://www.telegraph.co.uk/culture/books/3647365/You-can-trust-them-to-sell-you-a-car.html

            Opus
            Dei is also rather apolitical, aside from its stance on pro-life
            issues.  Membership certainly does not imply or suggest alignment with a
            political party.

            - Anti gay

            Except she’s also associated
            with people who support gay rights (Bill O’Reilly, Andrew Breitbart, Ed
            Morrisey) or openly endorsed them (Justin Bieber).  More importantly,
            she hasn’t publicly expressed her opinion on this issue (nor is she
            likely to).

            - Pro republican politician

            I should hope so. 
            I would be too if Barbara Boxer was my senator and Barack Obama was my
            president.  It should be noted that Lila herself has stated that a
            Democrat can be pro-life.  There actually are Democrats in the House of
            Representatives who are brave enough to part company with their party’s
            leadership and majority in order to promote justice for unborn
            children.  Personally, I think that these politicians deserve support
            more than anyone not because I necessarily prefer their party platform,
            but because of their political courage and sacrifice.  Political leaders
            who will give up their future with their favoured party to do the right
            thing are to be lauded.

            - Anti Obama

            Again, I should hope
            so.  He has never supported even moderate “pro-life” legislation (and I
            use that term loosely, because most of it was common sense regulations
            rather than meaningful restrictions).

          • MrEman

            Are you serious?! Why would this even be point of contention?!

            She was also profiled in the CNN documentary “Right on the Edge,” which documented young conservatives.

            The only reason Lila and Live Action don’t “come out of the closet” as a partisan, conservative Republican organization is because it would put their tax-exempt status in jeopardy.

          • FactsPlease

            - Always on Fox News

            I don’t think she has been on Fox recently.  But Fox has frequent guests
            and even panelists of all political views.  Some of them are liberal, and
            some are pro-abortion.

            - Speaking at GOP conferences

            Lila hasn’t spoken at an actual GOP conference.  With respect to the
            Values Voters Summits, she was an invited speaker.  She was given an
            opportunity to share her message with a large audience and encourage political
            leaders to take a stronger stance on pro-life issues.  Declining would
            have been incredibly foolish.  The fact that Republicans like her does not
            imply that she is one.  By your logic, Barack Obama is a Muslim because he
            happens to enjoy heavy support from the Muslim community.

            - Funding by Raymond Ruddy

            I still have yet to see a rigorous, universally accepted definition of
            “Christian Right”.  It is
            significant, however, that the abolitionists in England were conservative
            Christians.  Live Action has received a few generous grants over the
            years.  Accepting this funding is not the same as endorsing a political
            party.  Planned Parenthood has received far more funding from partisan
            billionaires, as have leftist blogs like MediaMatters that attack Live Action.  They also have heavy influence in the
            Democratic Party and ties to far left organizations like MoveOn.org.  They recently sponsored a progressive
            candidate-training program, and their president in particular has a long
            history with partisan politics.

            - Has links to the PR firm of the RNC

            How?  Again, this is rather irrelevant if you’re trying to prove that she
            is “all about the GOP”.  Sharing a PR firm with a political
            party is not the same as being a mouthpiece for said party.

            - Member of the Bruin Republicans at UCLA

            The only source that I can find for this is
            http://www.dailybruin.com/index.php/article/2006/11/iconservatism-doesnt-always-co

            The article is an opinion piece in a student newspaper (not exactly a hard news
            source).  It also makes at least one demonstrably false claim about Lila
            Rose.  It says that Lila Rose is a second year student.  But the
            piece is dated November 29, 2006.  Lila was a first year student in 2006,
            not a second year.  It also states that she is a political science and
            philosophy student.  In reality, Lila majored in history.  It is
            possible that she changed her major, but it doesn’t seem likely to me that a
            first year student would have a major.  With one false statement and one
            highly questionable one, I find it hard to give much credence to the third.

            Note also that the article was written five years ago (I doubt anyone’s
            political positions would stay exactly the same for five years). 
            Additionally, being a Republican in private life is not the same as serving as
            a spokesperson for the party line.

            - Trained with the Leadership Institute

            So one’s political positions are defined by where one receives public speaking
            lessons?

            - Compared herself to Martin Luther King Jr.

            Try again.  Lila favourably quoted
            him and encouraged others to use him as a role model for courageous activism
            that may be considered extreme or unpopular.  Quoting someone isn’t the same as comparing oneself to
            them.  And how would comparing
            herself to Martin Luther King Jr. imply that Lila is “all about the GOP”?

             

            - Compared herself to the mother of Emmitt Till

             

            No.  She
            encouraged pro-life activists to use graphic images to expose the injustice of
            abortion, a technique that Emmitt Till’s mother used successfully to advance
            civil rights.  She did not “compare
            herself” to a woman that lost her son to a brutal, racially incited
            murder.  And again, Emmitt Till has
            nothing to do with the GOP.

             

            - Profiled on CNN’s “Right on the Edge” documentary

             

            Lila was actually reluctant to be profiled due to concern
            about inaccurate portrayal and CNN’s history of pro-abortion bias.  “Conservative activist” was actually
            CNN’s label, and she consented to it probably because it was the only way she
            could reach their audience.

             

            The reason that Live Action doesn’t “come out of the closet”
            as a partisan organization is that it isn’t a GOP advocacy group.  Its mission is to end the injustice of
            abortion, not advance the agenda of a political party.  You have proven that Lila Rose publicly
            supports two items in the Republican Party’s 50+ page platform statement.  You haven’t come close to proving that
            her purpose is to parrot a party line. 
            It is interesting that you claim that Lila is destined to be an
            insignificant part of history, yet you spend much of your time trolling her
            blog.  Does Planned Parenthood pay
            you to do this?  This is a valid
            question, knowing that they have paid people to attend their rallies.  They also paid for Twitter followers
            and staged an “emergency bloggers’ conference”.  This is the only logical explanation that I have for your
            seemingly hypocritical actions.  It
            is the barbaric practice of abortion, not Lila Rose’s heroic efforts, that will
            one day find itself in the dustbin of history

            I’m not sure why this is such a point of contention. Everyone is getting their panties in a twist because I say she’s republican.. wow.

            Also, I don’t spend “much of my time trolling her blog,” given that yesterday was the first day I ever visited it. And believe me, from what I’ve seen.. there isn’t much reason to stay.

            If Planned Parenthood was paying me, I’m sure they would choose a more formidable opponent. I just hope Live Action is paying you, although I’m sure at the very least they let you write some articles for the blog.

            So I’m not going to take the time to respond to all of your points, as they’re not worth dignifying with a response.. Methinks the lady doth protest too much.

            Although, you did not deny that she is anti-birth control, anti-gay, anti-Obama, and a member of a church who encourages corporal mortification. So I’ll infer you at least concede those.

            Whatever. You say “pro life activist,” I say “stereotypical conservative republican.” But, at the end of the day, she still looks just like Maeby Fünke and talks with a baby voice.

            Can’t you stick to facts? You have to resort to ad hominum attacks?
            What is conceived in the union of a human sperm and a human egg cannot become anything other than a human being. We all got here that way. Execution of a human without a trial is murder. We’ve all avoided that. Our protected right to life has given rise to our  exercise of free speech. Pro-lifers are attacked for advocating for everyone the same rights we are enjoying, even your right to be wrong.

            Your Activity says that you first posted here a month ago, assuming you have no other aliases.

            I’m not sure that Planned Parenthood would be able to pay a formidable opponent to troll pro-life blogs.  This is what they hire for their chief PR executive:

            http://video.foxnews.com/v/4529123/sneak-peek-the-factor-confronts-planned-parenthood/

            I addressed your other points (gay, Obama, etc) in another post on this page… The formatting messed up and it ended up in another section.

            It is interesting that you still insist on painting her as that stereotypical Republican caricature when she hasn’t even spoken about guns, taxes, global warming, or any other issues in the Republican platform.  And say what you like about her physical appearance, she has still made a profound impact on the abortion debate.

          • Hope to the hopeless

            You still haven’t given a single instance in which Lila spoke for the GOP.

            So CNN called a documentary that included Lila a conservative documentary. So because CNN labels Lila that makes Lila that label? What did Lila have to do with that?

        • Hope to the hopeless

          Would you also say that Cecile Richards is all about a political party? She worked high up for Nancy Pelosi.

        • Chukwudi

          MrEman, you just spoke of yourself. the only thing is that you won’t be forgotten. No you won’t!!! Because you where not known in the first place, so there is no way you could be forgotten. And yes she is anti abortion, yes she is anti birth control etc.

          meaning she stands for somethingAnd notable people stand for something in a powerful way…so tell me, you being so scientific and all: how did u draw ur conclusion about her destiny to be forgotten?
          Also why u are answering that, please throw in this answer too: what makes u think that her goal for doing all she does is to be remembered!!
          I can see you reached all your conclusions by reflecting your cravings on her.
          I promise you she will be remembered, not because it is her mission statement, but because it is the side effect derived from struggling for what is right!!!
          and people, people, note the way he said “She is catholic” as though being catholic was synonymous with being “The slim of the earth”…Now note the way he said “She is anti gay”, as though being a self-proclaimed homosexual is identical to being black or being a child in the womb. And that anyone who is against the marital institution that want to incorprate gay union is in league with racists and abortionist(which from his responses, he agrees with)…
          Now can you see how in this individual, MrEman, how evil is preferred over good. So America, look and see what your future will be like when you allow principles such as abortion, fornication, gay marriages etc as the norm: you will be living in hell here on earth!!! Yes that is what it would feel like walking about with a mindset like the one MrEman has exhibited thus far

            Because Nigeria is the pinnacle of a free and fair society… Where it is sanctioned by Sharia law that gays and lesbians can be subjected to a public stoning, and throughout the country that they can be jailed for 15+ years. Where female genital mutilation is still practiced. Where child labor, child trafficking, and child sexual abuse is rampant. Where extrajudicial killings are the norm.

            If I were you, I wouldn’t worry so much about what was going on in America. I would worry about my own damn corrupt, impoverished, AIDS filled nation… and how I could help to change it. And I guarantee I would not start with abortion. 

            Before you criticize a free and fair democracy for moving toward a secular society, recognize that you live in place where just speaking your mind can get you killed. Perhaps secularism isn’t so bad after all.

        • Emillsbulldogs

          This is a nice, long list, MrEman.   I see you are very interested in Miss Rose, and spend a lot of time researching her.    

          Exactly what were YOUR credentials when YOU were a college student?   What have YOU done to give a voice to those who don’t have one?

          You sound like one of those Peewee football Dads who want to fix their high school failures through their 7 year old son… screaming insults and “advice” from the sidelines… but NEVER… EVER stepping in to HELP!  

    • Chukwudi

      … My answer to this is: Do U know anything, anything at all about Lila? If u did you would make so ignorant a statement

  • ProLifeMinion

    Dozen or so minions?  Check her Facebook fancount.  It’s over NINE THOUSAAND!!  And that pales compared to Live Action’s 73000+ fans.

    I want a t-shirt with the phrase ‘pro-life minion’ on it…….that is awesome. I would wear it :D

    • TheresaLynn

      Great idea :-)

      yes I would wear a shirt like that too flute! another I would love to have the shirt in the picture worn in the article where the shirt says ” If you’re reading this, Your Mom chose Pro-life.”

  • Anonymous

    I’ve always wanted to be a minion- but my lack of willingness to join an evil organization held back my plans…  So, do we get uniforms?  And a motto?  Like cheesy Pokemon villains?  (“To protect little kids from devastation!..”)

    Seriously, I’m loling too hard to be offended. XD  “Minions”?  That’s rich.  (Heheh, if I was actually a MINION, I’d get PAID.  There’s no money in pro-life!)

      True no money in pro-life! But I thought your idea of putting the statement “To protect little kids from devastion!” is a wonderful thing to put on a shirt!! I would wear that with like a unborn fetus on the front and cute baby pokemons on the back!  They would be shouting, “Our mother chose pro-life and we’re cute little animals :)

    I would say that had we even reason to suspect that a human being’s life begins at conception, we would have every right and obligation to defend that life. Caution would mandate we must err on the side of human life. However, science and medicine entirely support what people have suspected for nearly 2000 years, that life begins with that first inkling in the womb of a mother, beyond and before what even a woman first knows. The gift of life is an absolute miracle. We are able to see those first moments of life now, with great detail. To choose abortion is an affront to reason and an insult to rational thinking. The walls of denial and ignorance have been heavily fortified by the abortion lobby for 38 years, but those walls are falling. A generation is awakening. The times are changing. An authentic human discussion is taking place, and steadily, like a great rising tide, hearts and minds are changing.

    You who judge others really need a self check. This isn’t about Lilah, its about abortion. And without truly being in Lilah’s shoes, you can’t say what is an idle threat and what isn’t. Stop comparing history icons, and start standing up for the future icons, which may certainly be among those babies that are actually being THREATENED to die.

  • Steffie770

    I’m a minion then.

  • TheresaLynn

    It’s what they’ve always done and continue to do ~ attempting to change the words to disguise the truth and reality of abortion ~ killing of the youngest of life. Notice we choose LIFE and they choose death and choose to change the word to abortion ~ which is death. We’re with you Lila and I’d scratch the word minion and go with “of good character” :-) God Bless all of you!
