Please post all information about today's protests here.

My phone is already ringing steadily.

Our AIP folks on the ground at the Notre Dame gates report that the CBR plane is in the air.

AIP of Michigan Chairman Patrick Flynn just called again. Another wave of protesters just went on the campus at another location. That’s all the information I have at the moment.

I have always chose life....from the day my state of NY made abortion legal I was shocked and horrified by it. I was stunned again when the SCOTUS ruled it legal. I feel no less shock and horror today.

obama says he wants abortion to become rare (as do most liberals). If it’s only a blob of tissue, why the need to make it rare?

Global2010's ideas on "Catholic protest" are from his own imagination, not from de fide teaching. See a real authority on the matter, like St. Thomas Aquinas.

A few years back they tried to keep a bunch of French traditional Catholics out of a church by putting up concrete barriers. The traditionalists came with slege hammers and smashed them. Today thousands go to Mass, are confirmed, get married and receive the sacraments because of them.

Another one of our AIP people went in with one of the famous baby strollers. It was like the cops couldn’t see him. He just couldn’t get arrested. So, he shrugged his shoulders and headed on in.

Well. What tactics do you approve of? This event would have not achieved the profie that it has w/o his involvement.

I'm glad the tide has turned....51% are pro-life. I haven't always been. My teen years through my middle twenties, I was pro abortion. I never educated myself regarding abortion, I just listened to what was “taught” and thought of the unborn as a blob of cells.

It wasn't until I looked into it myself that I learned the truth. I cried for a long time, sometimes I still do when I think back on it.

I just can't believe I could have been such a sheeple, a stupid little girl I was. =(

sad to say I don’t much care for randy terry. I do think the protests could have gone on without his flamboyant participation. perhaps some students would have filled that void, had terry not grabbed the media coverage.

Good point phil.

And Obama also wants to make taxpayers pay for free abortions around the world. Does making something free also make it rare? Should we try to eliminate teen smoking by handing out free cigarettes in schools?

It is beyond belief how stupid some people are when it comes to things obama says.

Obama is a liar. He says one thing but his actions prove his intent.

His abject and total support of the so-called "Freedom of Chocie Act" marks him, as does his reversing the ban on federal funding of abortion. Both, the Freedom of Choice Act (which will remove almost all restrictions on abortion including through the 3rd trimester) and his federal funding will open the floodgates on abortion much, much wider...and he knows it.

It will not make them more rare...it will make them common place.

God bless them. May they come by the tens of thousands. Notre Dame is “good ground” to fight on.

Sounds like the Lord was walking by his side, making him “invisible”.

I do believe these things will occur more and more. God bless our country and those who stand up for what is holy.

Amen and God bless all such warriors, patriots, and martyrs for the testimony of Jesus, Him crucified, and the Christ-like precepts He teaches us to live by...including protecting innocent life in the womb!

...and Amen.

Notre Dame, is honoring Obama in law and thus supporting him in law...and he is absolutely and radically anti-life.

Honoring Obama is in this manner not engaging him, it is capitualting. Capitualtion on fundamental moral principle...on innocent life...is evil.

Roe of Roe v. Wade, Keyes, Fr. Weslin, (all of whom were arrested today at ND) and million more understand this.

Again, this is “good ground” for all of us to fight on.

Peacefilled and articulate engagement.

Alan Keyes YES!
Terry Randell No!

Every Catholic able to get to ND and stand with the protesters SHOULD BE THERE.

Not just a handful.

Showing an aborted baby visual on a semi truck, planning to disrupt the graduation ceremony is IMO not going to help the cause of ending infacide.

That is MY opinion.

If KV was withen distance of ND where we could drive his WC lift rig we would be there.

He was very clear in communicating that.
