Germantown, MD - On
Saturday, December 11, 2010, another large protest was conducted
outside Germantown Reproductive Health Services where late-term
abortionist LeRoy Carhart has set up shop doing abortions that are
illegal in his home state of Nebraska.
As was the case
with Monday's protest, over 600 pro-life supporters turned out to
pray and otherwise oppose Carhart's late-term abortion business.
Saturday's protest was organized by the Catholic Archdiocese of
Washington.
"In just the past
week, over 1,200 men and women have braved wind and freezing
temperatures to let the world know that the people of Maryland do
not want Carhart killing viable babies in their state," said
Operation Rescue President Troy Newman. "This is all happening at
an abortion clinic that never had more than one or two protesters a
week in its entire history. Protests like these can be expected to
continue on as long as babies are dying."
Pro-life supporters
and groups, including Operation Rescue, have committed to
peacefully protesting and working through the legal system to ban
late-term abortions in Maryland for as long as is necessary.
"This effort is not
a flash in the pan. We are committed to a long term campaign to
educate the public, awaken and activate the community, and drive
abortions from Germantown through the legal process," said
Newman.
