Pro-life Flash Mob surprises Chicago pro-choice
Pro-Life Flash Mob in Chicago Surprises "Walk for Choice"
From Brother Joshua Caswell, SJC:
Pro-Life Flash Mob in Chicago Surprises "Walk for Choice"CHICAGO - A pro-abortion "Walk for Choice" rally was held in downtown Chicago's Daley Plaza on Saturday, February 26, 2011. Participants of the "Walk for Choice" were protesting HR Bill 3 which limits taxpayer funding for Planned Parenthood.
As a response to the "Walk for Choice," anonymous teens and young adults organized a "Pro-Life Flash Mob" over the span of a few days. The goal of the event was not to counter-protest, but to give a positive message of joy and life to Chicago.
The youth assembled inconspicuously around the plaza before the rally hiding their giant yellow balloons in black trash bags. When the "Walk for Choice" had assembled, the youth prompted by music coming from a backpack sound system then proceeded to unveil the helium balloons imprinted with the word "LIFE."
These exclusive videos shows the "Pro-Life Flash Mob" taking the "pro-choicers" by surprise with Life, Spirit, and Truth!
As participants of the "Walk for Choice" were asked to wear orange for the event, so the Pro-Life flash mob jovially asks in their sign: "ORANGE YOU GLAD TO SEE US???"
Which side has more joy?
We have youth and joy on our side! After all, the parents of all these young people were faithful to life. "Pro-choice" are steadily eliminating their opportunity to shape the future by their denial that children are a reward.

So proud of these youth. I could definitely see my kids in there, too. (Wish I was young enough to do that--smile)

Could it really be that, at long last, after so many millions of innocent lives have been taken, the corner is finally being turned? Is the light of truth finally beginning to dawn on this decadent culture?

LOVE IT!!! I think that is the kind of protest that is going to garner interest and interesting responses. You cannot accuse those kids of rage or hate, that's for sure. :)

Awesome video, this put a smile on my face! Also, notice how the pro-abortion side was chanting "my body! my choice!", but biologically the unborn child in the mother's womb is a completely different human being since it has its own unique DNA, therefore it is not only their body they are harming but that of a another human being as well.

The other chant I heard was, "Pro-life is a lie, you don't care if women die!" What an Alice-in-Wonderland statement - how does making abortion illegal kill women? Is pregnancy and childbirth fatal? What about the fact that a person dies every time an abortion is performed (well, sometimes the baby miraculously survives . . .) and statistically, half of those persons are female!?
I am so proud of these young people who are willing to speak out for those precious babies.

Jennifer, they're basing their chant on the mistaken notion that women are going to die in back alleys if abortion is illegal. Remember that was the lie that was told to gain widespread support. They're just living a lie. What's new.
