Here is what I am giving out to our people on the days of the protest:
Dear Friends,
Thank you for joining our
protest against PLANNED
PARENTHOOD today. The name of
that organization sounds friendly and nice, but people soon discover it’s
synonymous with deception and death. We
are here to represent truth and life.
To help us to do so, I have
outlined a Code of Conduct that I
request for people to follow.
1. Treat others with respect.
2. Related to the above,
don’t talk to people who ask you to leave them alone.
3. Please do not yell to the
people in the parking lot of Planned Parenthood. We have designated “sidewalk counselors” who
speak to the women and men coming for abortion.
(In our experience it’s a waste of time trying to talk to the
pink-vested abortion escorts.) Also, leave about a 15 foot buffer on both sides
of the driveways.
4. Don’t defend the signs. If someone tears up yours, take pictures of
the person doing so, and call 911. Of
course you may defend people.
5. Be safe. Keep your young children under control! McDowell especially and Choctaw are busy
streets. Watch the children of
others. For a safe option, families with
active children can stand on the sidewalk on Frederick Street, west
6. Don’t bunch up on the
sidewalk. Allow room for people to walk
by. Spreading out a little will allow
your signs to make more impact. Don’t stand in the road.
7. Be open to talking with
Planned Parenthood/abortion supporters who are likewise open to calm
discussion. If someone is shouting at
you, however, or expressing hostility or contempt in some way, just leave them
alone. Pray.
This isn’t part of a Code of
Conduct, but please, if you will, give us your contact information. If we do something like this protest again,
we’d like to reach you. Tear off the bottom of this sheet and print your name, address and e-mail address. Include a phone number, if you wish.
Thanks so much.
–Mick
