FULL VIDEO: Pro-Lifer Assaulted at Prayer Vigil Outside Planned Parenthood

WARNING: STRONG LANGUAGE!

A few people asked for the full unedited video from the assault, assuming that Victor must have provoked the attack in the 67 seconds I cut from the video. Here I have the full unedited video on the left with text narration on the right. The ONLY editing on the video is occasional blurring of Planned Parenthood clients, to protect their privacy.

The original video we put up, which includes a lot of discussion of the video from both sides is here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KoY1WSRbriA

PRESS RELEASE: Pattern of Threats and Intimidation Escalates Into an Assault on a Pro-Life Volunteer at a Prayer Vigil

FRESNO, CA Right to Life of Central California (RLCC), one of the largest pro-life organizations west of the Mississippi, today condemned the pattern of threats and intimidation targeted at pro-life volunteers, that escalated into an assault Thursday afternoon.

On October 15th, Day 23 of our 40 Days for Life campaign, a pro-choice woman shouted obscenities at 40 Days volunteers, before attempting to break the event security camera and assaulting Victor Fierro, director of Latinos4Life. The attacker cut Fierros arm with an unknown object, drawing blood, and then stormed back to her car and fled the scene. Much of the encounter took place right behind the camera, but the audio was all captured, as well as her face and license plate number. A police report is being filed this morning, and the video being uploaded to YouTube later today.

RLCCs Education Director Josh Brahm said, Were just trying to hold a peaceful prayer vigil out here. Were law-abiding citizens, standing on a public sidewalk, with the full support of the Fresno Police Department, and yet several pro-abortion-choice people have been harassing us since day one. Now its turned physical.

A police report has already been filed regarding another individual thats come by several times, stealing signs and making threatening remarks. In addition, a man called the Fresno Right to Life office this morning, saying when you go and shoot doctors that are just trying to offer a service to women its not good; theres a lot of hate out there, and one day its going to blow up, and a lot of people are going to get hurt; why should I give you back anything but the sh** youve given to everybody else, and why dont you just die you godd*** mother-f***ing piece of sh**!

Josh Brahm said, Fresno Right to Life has a long and undeniable history of peaceful pro-life activism, which we will proudly continue even in the face of bullying and intimidation.

Local media ignored the story of yesterdays assault on their evening news casts. KMPH Fox 26 told Josh Brahm that they werent going to cover the story since Victor wasnt stabbed, just scratched. KFSN ABC 30 shot footage at Planned Parenthood and interviewed both Josh Brahm and Victor Fierro, but didnt use the story, replacing it with a piece on the new chocolate-covered bacon stand at the local fair, and a man who believes he sees the virgin Mary on a rock.

For over 22 years, RLCC has been a leader in peaceful, legal activities to protect human lives threatened by abortion, infanticide and euthanasia. RLCC will continue to work through educational activities to ensure the right to life for unborn children, people with disabilities and the infirm and elderly. This includes our annual 40 Days for Life prayer vigil, as well as a globally-heard podcast, YouTube videos, educational presentations and campus outreach.

To top it off, is that a Planned Parenthood, they're standing in front of? Because if it is, only 3% of the services PP provides are abortions, they also provided health services like contraceptives, because remember women, these volunteers don't believe in any social programs to help you raise your child. I go to the Planned Parenthood in my city for gynecological exams and get dirty looks, but oh well, I don't have the money for a 200-300.00 per visit gynecological appointment.

[LifeReport]

@breemystic According to former PP employees, the 3% statistic is misleading because PP unbundles its services when reporting them. Last year, Planned Parenthood saw 3 million clients and performed 324,008 abortions—at least one in 10 Planned Parenthood clients receives an abortion. As Abby Johnson, ex-PP director and employee of eight years has shared, they push for abortions above anything else because it’s the most profitable part of their business. PP does VERY little prenatal care too.

[breemystic]

@LifeReport Fine, 10%, I stand corrected. I was wrong, I am more than happy to say I'm wrong. However, that still means that the majority of people going into that PP center that they're standing outside of are going in there for gynecological care. Which means those people standing outside are making a false judgment towards people who just don't have money to pay a gynecologist. I know I don't.

[LifeReport]

@breemystic I 100% agree with you. I think the stat is 89% of PP clients are not there for an abortion-related appointment. That's why we train ALL of our volunteers to not say anything judgmental, or even give a judgmental look at someone just because they walk in. We're not protesting women getting birth control or any other health related check ups. We're protesting abortions that kill innocent, vulnerable human beings. I think all pro-lifers standing outside of PP should understand that.

[Wolfboy183]

i hate pro-lifers, but in this case, the perp woman was really that bored??? The PP staff weren't even protesting or doing anything aggressive. The PP staff were just chilling by the street.

What a dumbass. She wasn't even provoked, she was the "bad guy" in this case. What an idiot.

[Soothfish]

@breemystic If you want to get into legality then ok. We already have laws in place that forbid someone from removing life support AND basic nutritional support from a comatose patient without it being explicitly stated in a will or advance health care directive. An unborn child is a somewhat comatose patient that NEVER gives consent to this. Roe Vs Wade 1973 conflicts with this law.

I have an advanced degree in biology so don't bother telling me that the fetus doesn't have a mind. It does.

[Soothfish]

@breemystic Also, C Section is now considered safer than vaginal delivery for many women. Both of my in laws got a C Section. But that's all besides the point.

I would expect any decent human being to risk his or her life if a child was about to be hit by a speeding truck. Child birth may be painful but it is significantly less dangerous than a speeding truck and equally important as saving the child in the highway. Nobody is forced to be heroes but I'm not required to respect selfishness.

[Soothfish]

@breemystic That doesn't make sense. A C Section is designed to protect life. An abortion is designed to kill.

Almost everything in the world is potentially dangerous. We don't legalize gunning down a crowded mall just because those people have a small chance of dying some other way.

[Soothfish]

@breemystic As much as I hate debating this, there is no other choice. This is a matter of life or death.

[Soothfish]

@breemystic I don't understand what you are saying. The procedure you describe is not a treatment for hemophilia.

[Soothfish]

@breemystic This isn't about legality. It may be ultimately impossible to stop a pregnant woman from killing her unborn child.

However, it is still an evil and selfish thing to do. The woman you describe is killing the baby for HER own comfort. There are people in this world who have made incredible personal sacrifices to do what is right. My own aunt has Down Syndrome. My grandparents brought her to term despite pressure to abort. Then they raised three other heroes despite the poverty

[breemystic]

@Soothfish And before you say, that the woman had a part in making the unborn biologically dependent on the woman's body, answer this question for me.

If a woman has to carry an unborn to term because she created that dependency, then if she passes along a gene for say hemophilia, or a disease that affects the kidney or genes for cancer. Should she have to give blood, bone marrow or a kidney to her born child, because she did make that child dependent on a part of her body to live?
