Students at hundreds of schools across the country walked out of class on Wednesday to to remember the lives lost and pain caused from abortion as well as to protest taxpayer dollars going to Planned Parenthood.
More than 300 students or student groups at American high schools and colleges walked out of class at 10am for a moment of silence, according to Students for Life of America (SFLA), which helped get students organized.
The idea was inspired by California student Brandon Gillespie, who wanted to highlight whether schools would practice a double standard on student protests.
“Along with being a movement commemorating the millions of children who fell victim to abortion, this movement is one that stands for all students’ right to freedoms of speech and assembly,” the 17-year-old told National Review.
Gillespie’s teacher, Julianne Benzel, was put on administrative leave from Rocklin High School after she suggested schools might treat students who wanted to protest abortion differently than those protesting gun violence.
Just a few weeks ago, thousands of students held a national walkout on March 14 calling for gun control after 17 were killed in the Valentine’s Day Parkland, Florida school shooting.
“Some schools have initially refused to give the same accommodation to pro-life students, usually saying it’s because standing for life is ‘too controversial’ or ‘too political,’” said Students for Life Jr. Vice President of Communications Matt Lamb.

This is going to get a lot of coverage on MSM. /s
Our afternoon ConservaBabe had one of the female students who helped organize this on her show. (Vicki McKenna, AM1310 3-6pm central)
The Enemy Media didn’t give the Pro-Life Walk-Out ONE SECOND of coverage, though devoted 10 minutes every night for a WEEK to that lame-brain Hogg and his anti-gun cadre of children.
*SPIT*
Anyone surprised at the school's response?
My bet is all these students will be expelled from school, unlike the teacher union supported Adolph Hogg and his Tide pod eating and condom snorting Snotzi Party minions who walked out demanding an end to the Second Amendment.
I could support those who walked out instead of those same students listing to some teachers preaching against the 2nd Amendment.
I am reminded when Mother Theresa died just days after the wall-to-wall coverage of Princess Diana’s death, and watching the media reluctantly try to provide the minimum coverage possible to avoid the claims of bias.
The 3 networks sent their big anchors to cover Diana’s funeral. How many of those went to Calcutta? Will the school walkout over abortion catch on? The left should be careful what they wish for.
If President Trump was as much a follower of Jesus Christ as Vice President Mike Pence, every infanticide mill in the United States would have been shut down and bulldozed the moment he stepped into the Oval Office. We as a nation will be judged for this by Almighty God, and the United States will never, ever be “great again”. Not in the Lord’s eyes, as He is always in control. President Trump, SHUT THEM DOWN.
Nice...time to fight for conservative values in the indoctrination centers. Fight back, we need to take back our schools...
