This is the day…
…to see whether pro-life students at University of Calgary get arrested for doing the Genocide Awareness Project on campus. Imagine the visual in the media if students were to get arrested for protesting. Not that I wish that on those poor students, but it could be a powerful statement, whether or not you are pro-life. University campuses are typically hotbeds of protest, and when students get arrested for doing just that–it might wake a few Canadians up.

The Genocide Awareness Project is exactly that – an educational effort to generate awareness of the reality of abortion. This is not a protest, per se. University campuses should be a place where education of any kind should be applauded. And if you don’t want to look – don’t. How is it that the Charter of Rights and Freedoms does not apply to so-called “private property”? This is ludicrous. The administration is just trying to find a way to put a stop to the revelation of the reality of one of the most hotly debated issues in our day. But then, as has been pointed out so many times here, the debate is over. So, what is the problem? These kids are drawing attention to something that is no longer an issue, right? So many questions, and few answers…I wish I had courage like that at their age, heck, even now. It should be very interesting to see what unfolds today.
