Spirit of Planned Parenthood Shows It's Face

A report from Wednesday morning from a vigil participant:
While we were there this morning, this young man (pictured left) came out of Planned Parenthood with two of his buddies (unusual for 3 young men to be there together), and he began to taunt us, daring us to step over the property line while he stood close to the building. We had no intention of doing so and we didn't. I told him that we are law abiding citizens, all the while he continued shouting out, and began swearing. The group there continued praying aloud. I asked if he could watch his language due to the children present. Thankfully, my daughter had just decided to get out of the cold and step into our car (perhaps her guardian angel urged her).

The young man became even more hostile, more obscene, and uttered all kinds of graphically fowl nonsense, decribing acts of child rape, and blasphemed God while we continued to pray. I stopped trying to engage him before he got to this point. I believe he was posessed, and I don't use that term lightly. He even proclaimed that he worships Satan! The other two buddies (pictured here) stood there all the while, silent, but "looking tough". The Satan worshiper was making cell phone calls, and we believed he was calling more of his friends to come and join him. They eventually all went back into the building.

Shortly afterwards, the same woman that drives by daily, just to heckle us, came by to do it again. She often tells mothers with children that we should be "ashamed" of ourselves for having our children out there in the cold. (Our children think what is going on in that clinic is cruel, and some of them beg us to go there to pray for the babies and for their mothers.) She went inside this time for just a minute or two, and then came out again, doing the same thing. We continued praying.

A couple of questions and observations come to mind about the young man.

This guy was standing only two feet from Planned Parenthood's building, even near a window and was shouting his obscenities loud enough that surely the employees inside would have heard. Why did they not come out to urge him stop? Why didn't they "distance" themselves from him? Was he their representative for the day? No orange shirt? His friend had some kind of name tag on, and they were all there for quite a while.

A pretty young girl came out and passed them by and said something like, "You eggin' on the protesters?" and grinned. She went out to the parking lot and smoked a cigarette and went back in, after giving a scoffing look when she heard the words of our prayers, "Pray for us sinners, now and at the hour of our death." An employee or a client, I'm not sure.

It seems there are two types of people entering the building. The scared and confused (but otherwise well meaning people) and the diabolical, hard core pro-abortion zealots, whose god is Satan, and who express the spirit of Planned Parenthood. Today we got a rare look at what that spirit is like.
