Amazing turnout

PEORIA, IL -- The amazing pro-choice turnout on Feb. 11 was inspiring.  It's great to see so many care about abortion rights.  At least 200 or more lined both sides of Knoxville at the Planned Parenthood office.

Anti-choice demonstrators numbered about a dozen!

Clare Howard of the Community Word wrote a terrific story with photos.

At least you're honest and call it "abortion rights" not "women's health".

BTW, was their any violence towards the pro-lifers? They held marches in 45 states and there were several instances of very bad behavior from the pro-abortion crowd.
