Video Shows Abortion Supporters (in Argentina) Harassing Catholics (Ecumenical)
Catholic News Agency ^ | 9/19/2008 | n/a

A video posted on YouTube.com put on full display the ferocity of abortion supporters who were participating in the National Meeting of Women in the Argentinean city of Neuquen last August. It shows them harassing and insulting a group of Catholic young people who were standing outside the Cathedral of Neuquen to keep the church safe from the protests.

The National Meeting of Women is a feminist event that takes place each year to pressure authorities to legalize abortion and to promote reproductive rights and gender ideology.

Financed by anti-life NGOs and supported by the government of Argentinean president Cristina Fernandez de Kirchner, the meeting brings together pro-abortion, feminist, homosexual and left-wing organizations.

The meeting usually ends with a protest through the streets of the host city, with organizers planning the route to include a stop at the local cathedral. This year, in order to keep protestors from trashing the cathedral grounds, a group of young people from Neuquen stood outside the cathedral to pray and form a barrier against the protestors.

The YouTube video shows abortion protestors shouting and throwing objects at the young people.

I would liken this to a spiritual version of the Battle of Thermopylae. See the video above.

Truly terrifying. The left is vicious, violent, ugly, and like a pack of demons turned loose. I remember one time being at an abortion march that ended up at St. Agnes church in New York and the pro-abortionists who had lined the route were howling and shrieking at the doors of the church on 43rd St. It really was like being attacked by demons.

What’s with the ululating? All leftist demonstrators love to do that nowadays. Sort of a multi-cultural demonic sound, I suppose.

God bless and protect these young people and the Catholic Church.

I am surprised that a Catholic publication did not put “reproductive rights” in quotes.
