I Like Turtles

Riding home from my Dad’s house the other day took me through downtown Westminster, Maryland. It was rush hour. Although Westminster isn’t big, it gets congested. So I sat in traffic on Main Street, inching along through about three cycles of the traffic signal. There was a pro-life rally setting up at the time. People lined both sides of the street, about 20 feet apart, each holding a 3-foot by 5-foot disturbingly graphic images of aborted babies.

I was amazed by the number of protesters. (I’d say there were about 40 in place with more on the way.) Taking pictures would have been a reward for them, so I abstained. But I couldn’t help gawking.

I wasn’t even going to mention it. Then a friend shared a link with me describing what I think is the best counter-protest ever. So I had to share.

One sign in particular made me giggle. It reminded me of my daughter, Shannon, who found this once-viral video absolutely hysterical…

 

And that’s all I’ve got to say about that.
