The highlight of this film was the scene where the chick flips out and smacks the weirdo guy Matt Trewhella in the face a couple times. That guy definitely had it coming to him. Also, did anyone notice his mustache when he's being interviewed? Part of it is shaved off on one side, very strange.
shareThat's funny - I thought the same thing. Seriously - the group surrounds this girl, then Mr Trewhella tells her she's doing Satan's work (or something like that) - after she's told them that she is very religious - and acts like he's surprised that she doesn't react well?
Obviously there's no excuse for physical violence - but a reasonable person might take a step back when the person he's attacking is so visibly shaken. I really think htat's exactly what he wanted to happen so that he could play the "poor" victim.

Are there some ignorant Christians? I think that goes without saying.
How people suppose that Christians are supposed to be meek and mild have obviously never read the Bible. The Bible is pretty darn bloody, but that's neither here nor there.
I believe this movie proves that abortion will continue to be a hot topic item in this country for decades to come. In America, we're experts at talking at each or above one another, but never to each other. We cannot engage in civil conversations regarding these topics because we bring our own personal prejudices to the table. It wouldn't be so bad if we were able to understand the other person's position and then act accordingly. Doesn't happen very often in this country.
You will find many people in America that can understand (and sympathize) with both sides of the abortion issue. It is smaller fringe segments on both sides that just sour the majority of us. They only see things as black and white and do not comprehend that life is filled with many gray areas.
One of America's greatest victories will be the day when NARAL and the RIGHT TO LIFE movement are both shutdown. When that day happens, you will know that we have managed to find solutions that truly help not only women, but our society as a whole. Since I'm cynical, I resign myself to seeing more movies like this and others that will only continue to divide us.

lol I didn't notice the mustache.
Anyway, it would've been nice (hilarious?) if the girl wasn't so emotionally shaken and just punched the guy in the face. I was sorry for the kids there. Hope they won't grow up to be another weirdo like him, but who knows...
I'll have to check this out,Pro-lifers have to be the most effective advertisement for abortion ever,ironically.
"God put you here to test my faith,dude"-BILL HICKS
there were a slew of unintentional black comedy moments.
my fav were all the dumb heifers holding up signs saying "i regret my abortion!"
omg really!
could you look a little more stupid????
then they're all giving testimonials... lmao, the day i'm going to take advice from a ho wearing that sign around her neck is never.
seriously ladies pull yourself together and have some self-respect.
oh and there was something so bizarre about the woman who stole a bunch of dead fetuses and put them in coffins and buried them... i laughed out loud... it was just so macabre and effed up, what's wrong with these people???
they're obsessed with sex and death, but carry on like it's the rest of the world that's all messed up. yeah whatever.
a Mrs:
I don't even know what that lady that lifted her shirt up was talking about. It seemed like she was saying everyone assured me that there is no link between abortions and breast cancer but she thinks because she had both that there is a link? That doesn't make sense, lots of people have abortions and don't get breast cancer. I bet she drives with her eyes open to. I hope there's no link between people driving with their eyes open and breast cancer because I do that!
Also, by the time the girl slapped him I couldn't understand what they were screaming at each other. What did he say to her that made her snap? I know she said she never had an abortion but I kind of think she did to get that angry with him.
I think she was post-abortive as well. She was so angry. If she wasn't post-abortive, she would have cursed him out, gave him the bird, and walked away earlier.
Odd that people can support abortion, but get so upset when they see the results of what they advocate. Everyone loves bacon, no one wants to go to the slaughterhouse.

One of the options is abortion, therefore they advocate for it. I understand why they pretend not to advocate for it. It must be difficult looking in the mirror knowing you think it's acceptable for a woman to kill her child.

I am Ant-Choice when the choice results in a dead child. I wear the label "Anti-Choice" proudly. I've yet to read of Planned Parenthood, NARAL, NOW, Marie Stopes International, or any other Reproductive Rights organization lobby for any other position but abortion on demand.
Not any more so? Planned Parenthood performs 333 abortions to every 1 adoption. Sounds like favoritism. If the pro-abortion contingent aren't favoring abortion, what services do they offer women suffering a crisis pregnancy who decide to keep the child? I don't see Pre-Natal Services as one they offer.
http://www.plannedparenthood.org/health-center/findCenter.asp
Where are the Homes for Unwed Moms run by Pro-Choice organizations? Can a woman go to Planned Parenthood and get diapers or take parenting classes? No, but they'll give you some low-quality condoms and birth control.
Unfortunately, a mother can't feed her baby a condom.

"That would be great, but everything has a price. I'd love to see PP give away both higher quality birth control and offer the class of which you speak."

The elimination of $363 million in federal funding for Planned Parenthood health care centers may well force a government shutdown at midnight tonight.
http://abcnews.go.com/Politics/planned-parenthood-center-budget-shutdown-threat/story?id=13328750
I haven't looked at the price of condoms lately, but I imagine for a sixth of $363 million you can buy the best contraceptives on the market.
"It's not their job, it's their job to keep the option of abortion open. If they'd like to keep the child, why contact them? If a woman initially would like to have an abortion, but changes her mind, they're not going to come at her with a knife and take the baby. She'll either leave or be referred to another organization."
********************************************************************************
Then they need to stop the facade that they support all three choices equally. If a man has three children and he says loves all three equally then wouldn't it be logical that if John, Frank, and Riley had the same needs, he'd spend his resources comparatively among them? Pro-Choice people say they support abortion, adoption, and keeping the child equally, even though their efforts are focused primarily on keep access to abortion.
Abolition opponents didn't argue that everyone must own a slave, they simply wanted the option to own Africans. They called themselves "Pro-Slavery" because they were for it. Just as Pro-Choicers are Pro-Abortion."
If their job is to help women, I'd hope it'd be to help all women. Not just the ones seeking abortion. If they aren't (they aren't), they can at least admit it and stop hiding behind the moniker "Pro-Choice" when "Pro-Abortion" is more apt.
******************************************************************************
"Planned Parenthood performs 333 abortions to every 1 adoption.
That's dependent on the women who come and the choices they make."
*******************************************************************************
A ratio like that calls to question the quality of counseling they are offering. Considering the financial incentive entailed in convincing a woman to abort opposed to giving birth, I'd say any pretense of being unbiased and assisting a woman to seriously consider all three choices needs to stop.
In conclusion, I detest White Supremacists almost as much as I detest Planned Parenthood. That's a lie, I hate PP much more. But I'll give the KKK and their ilk some respect, they are honest in what they stand for. I could begrudgingly respect PP. NARAL, NOW, MSI, if they'd come out and say.
"We fully support a woman's right to get an abortion when she wants for any reason. We don't care if abortion numbers go down, go up, or go sideways, and we aren't an adoption agency. Abortion is a moral choice, it's legal in America and the UK and we're for a woman choosing it."
Then we don't expect you to ever abort. Grow up. Stay the hell out of other adult decisions that don't concern your life. We have millions of orphans. Adopt and raise a few. Otherwise, shut the hell up.
shareIf you support a mother killing her child then of course you'd support hitting someone for words that they said.
shareWhat the hell are you talking about? How do you jump to the conclusion Tyrione
supports the slapping of that goofball with him telling you to shut up? Even I have to agree with him; either offer a viable solution, or shut the hell up. Anti-Abortionist are redundant, with all your posturing the only thing you can offer on a consistence basis to these women is a baby blanket and the directions to the nearest Welfare Line.

My men fight just as well when they are stinking of P*U*S*S*Y- Julius Caesar
Those people make me that angry as well, they're a bunch of ignorant men trying to control women. Never had an abortion either. He was being a judgmental dick (like someone else around here) & told her she was in league with Satan or some nonsense, so she hauled off & hit him.
shareI saw a very pissed off female ( you know, the ones who actually get pregnant that the movie spent far less time interviewing) in increasing emotional distress being egged on by an ideologue. He's standing there inciting her to react with increasingly emotional responses and then she slaps him. SHOCK. These people are like the Westborro clan.
