Get Ready To See Some Violence

Touchstone Magazine:

"...when it comes to whatever number of people protesting at Notre Dame, the right image is not that of Vietnam War protesters or those people that show up at the various global economy "summits", and certainly not the PETA people. It's not there won't be violence--there will be violence, but it won't be on the part of protesters, though they will be accused of angry hatred. The violence will be seen in the pictures some of them will be carrying, and the aborted fetuses depict a violence approved of, sanctioned by, and fully supported by the President who is speaking to the students on Sunday.

Joseph Scheidler of the Pro-Life Action League see this as "a teaching opportunity" to be taken by "peaceful protesters," who are coming on buses from Chicago, Aurora, IL, Indianapolis, Ann Arbor, St. Louis and other places. They will stand along the route to be taken by visitors coming to the school for graduation, holding signs depicting both fetal development and fetal "termination."

President Obama recently has declined to release photos of alleged torture lest they incite certain people and cause the deaths of American serviceman. The fetal photos won't be censored, and they are displayed in the hope of inciting others, not to violence (God forbid!) but to end the violence and spare the lives of thousands upon thousands upon thousands.

Now we know Notre Dame can read, but can Notre Dame understand pictures? The protesters aim to peacefully point out the violence in pictures. Notre Dame needs to learn something else: honoring the man who was publicly the most pro-abortion legislator in Washington and remains unrepentant is complicity with deep evil."
