So Annoyed With Pro-lifers Protesting On My Street
Posted: 10-04-07 09:28am

Well, I live in Charleston, SC-as some of you may know. I live in an apartment community. The very tiny road that leads into my community has an abortion clinic right across the street. For a few weeks now, EVERY, SINGLE day, there has been a group of pro-lifers with signs that read "abortion kills children," "I regret my abortion," etc.
Don't these people require a permit?
I'm getting aggravated because they park their cars on the lawn of our apartments and picket all day long. No matter if it's raining, whatever.
Whenever I drive by, they all scream at me waving their signs and stuff at me. Yesterday, it happened to be raining, and I purposely sped through the puddle they were standing next to and splashed all of them!
I kind of felt bad afterwards but I'm so aggravated with them disturbing my peace. I have the right to drive to my house without being screamed at and signs being shoved in my face that I do not agree with.
I was thinking today that I'm going to make a sign that reads "Either I get an abortion or YOU pay for my children" The next one reads "YOU DECIDE"
Grrrrrrrr! I'm so aggravated with the bible thumpers. Evil or

Right up the street from my office there are abortion protesers that sit at the entrance of a complex that is full of doctor's offices, one of which is a Women's center that performs abortions, but it's also a clinic for women who choose to continue with their pregnancies. They are not allowed on the complex property, but that doesn't stop them from being there with their disgusting signs and yeah, they yell at anyone who drives through regardless of age.

They sit out there every Wednesday because that is evidently the day that abortions are performed. It really makes me mad, because I couldn't imagine how it must feel to a women who is having that procedure done to be forced to look at the signs and face the ridicule from these lunatics. I was always tempted to waddle myself down there when I was 9 months pregnant, but I was too chicken.

Thankfully the abortion clinic I went to refused to give out their address to anyone that did not have an abortion appointment. And they were also in a huge medical building, unnamed and whatnot.

I can understand how incredibly annoying that is. Check into your city's law office and find out whether they can do that. I'm pretty darn they can't since they're parking on your front lawn and unless they're given permission from the apartment building, that certainly can't be legal.

To be a bit petty, I certainly wonder why these people don't have jobs, or they somehow seem to find jobs that allow them to picket every day of the week. How on earth do they raise their own children Wink

That's just crazy!!

Actually there were quite a few demonstrations recently here due to it being 40years since the Abortion Act was passed but I never actually seen anyone myself. I'd be mad if they were doing it near my house, I know free speech and all but still some opinions I don't need thrown at me when I'm trying to leave my house lol

I understand free speech, but some people just take it WAY TOO FAR!

How are you supposed to explain to your child why they are pounding on your car because you're going home? It seems pro-lifers only care about the unborn fetus the literally doesn't care about anything! Doesn't matter that they are teaching your children it's okay to harass people because of their decisions!! GRR, they make me so angry!!

Weird.
I just now got a message about a reply to my topic.... only it's been a good 6+ months since the reply.

Thankfully, I have moved since I last posted Smile

If my child would have asked (she was too young at the time but is 2 1/2 now), I would just simply say "Honey, these people forgot to take their crazy pills this morning."
