The Blaze
Volunteers from a pro-life organization spent hours placing 3,600 crosses in a field in Bellingham, Washington, over the weekend. Each cross, crafted by hand and painted bright white, represented one of the babies who is killed by abortion every day in the U.S.
That was Saturday.
The night before, three of eight Lynden Human Life's pro-life signs, which are spread out across Whatcom County were vandalized. Lynden Human Life is a nonprofit that provides education and resources to help protect the unborn and the elderly. Coincidence?
Spokeswoman Lynden Juanita Verbree doesn't believe so. "I think this group knew what our plans were and went to work the night before [the crosses went up]," Verbree told TheBlaze in a phone interview Tuesday.
Verbree, who has worked with Lynden Human Life since 1981, said the group puts up the crosses every January just before the anniversary of Roe v. Wade. The "cemetery" will stay in the field until mid-April.
What did the vandals do to the signs? All three of the 12 foot by 8 foot signs were vandalized with paint. The vandals wrote,"Your life drains earth," in red spray paint.
The message and meaning is pretty clear. The baby is alleged to "drain" the earth, by which we suppose the protesters meant that every new human life actually consumes the resources of the earth in some way. The implication is that the new born child is Earth-Enemy Number One. Weird.
However, the secret protesters/vandals are clearly hypocrites. If they truly believes that human life "drains" the earth, by far the best contribution they could make would be to commit suicide. However, for some inexplicable reason they must also believe that their negative contribution to the earth ought to be overlooked. Weirder still. [Ed.]
