New TV Ads For Abortion Services Part 2
Yesterday we reported that the UK was running its first abortion ad on televisions. CNN did this story on it, previewing the ad itself.
We can’t deny the influence of media on a society. That’s why many grew up thinking smoking was cool, thanks to the Marlboro Man, or that we had to have certain toys or shoes. But if you are a child growing up in the UK, now you may think that having an abortion is cool. The ad is the result of a loophole violating of its own law against abortion providers advertising. Most abortion providers are nonprofit and cannot advertise, but Marie Stopes is excepted from the law because it is a for-profit abortion provider. Marie Stopes is sort of like Planned Parenthood, with even similar looking web pages. In fact, it even offers a “booking service’ so you can have an abortion consultation online.
I recently told you about some amazing LIFE gatherings in Florida. On April 24 people from all across the state gathered at the University of Central Florida for a Solemn Assembly to pray and cry out for life within the state's borders. Then on May 1 more than 1,800 people (mostly first-timers) participated in a Silent Siege at every abortion facility in the state. What was unplanned was what happen in between those two gatherings.
