We did this
is April 2011. We planted 330 crosses to commemorate the lives lost due to
abortion. We also had signs up as well to bring attention to the violence of
abortion. The reaction to this on the campus was upsetting because we had much
backlash. We were called many names and were seen as intolerant. What is ironic
about that argument is that the liberals on campus were being intolerant of
our thought and for standing up for the dignity of life. It was the first
time that the members personally and we as a club said to ourselves that
this would be a long battle, in both to have and hold events, but also in the
future as a fully-fledged club. We had much public outrage that students would
desecrate our presentation that promoted love for the babies that had since
died. The videos show what we went through and how we received national,
regional, and local news. We woke up and became stronger from the destruction
of the cemetery of the innocent. We utilized this event to formulate a stronger
following. That following included people who sat on the fence on the prolife
debate and said that people who did this were rude and disrespectful. We
understand as a group that we will get tension but this was the first time it
hit close to home.
