"Choice" signs on display at Market Square.
Last week, the Pro-Life Coalition of East Tennessee (ProCET) organized a protest at a Planned Parenthood (PP) fundraiser in Knoxville. About 30 people came to peacefully witness against baby killing.
The Tomato Head restaurant was closed to everyone but PP, and probably 20 or 30 people attended their event. It was mostly an older crowd. Our ProCET group was much more diverse, ranging in age from 7 to 70.
A few of us held the CBR “Choice” signs, and passersby studied them very intently. Several people thanked us for being there, which we appreciated.
One man, probably in his mid to late 30’s, told us that many years ago he had gotten a girl pregnant. She had aborted without his consent. It was devastating; he even ended up on the streets for a while. He still misses that child. He said he was grateful for our presence and he and his friend encouraged us to “Keep it up!”
Protesting Planned Parenthood at Market Square
We are very grateful to Paul Simoneau and Lisa Morris of ProCET for organizing this and many other pro-life efforts in Knoxville.

A militant pro-choice blog.
He ended up on the streets? Hmmm. I wonder what kind of father he would have made.
It's a woman's choice whether to have an abortion or not. A man so opposed to abortion really needs to ensure his sexual partner is equally opposed before having sex particulary sex without birth control.
"It was mostly an older crowd. Our ProCET group was much more diverse, ranging in age from 7 to 70".
Mostly an older crowd? That's pretty vague. By that do you mean they were there of their own free will .... as opposed to the children who dragged along by their pro-life parents? As a parent, I think young children have no place at demonstrations like this. If they can't afford a babysitter, make other arrangements or don't go.
It was a wonderful occasion to celebrate Women's Rights.
There are men out there who were born late (they have the viewpoint of most men in the Dark Ages)and wish to control every aspect of women's lives. These insecure males have no respect for their own lives.
They are very sad and pitiful. And the poor women married to them REALLY deserve our prayers and pity.
This is not education, this is meant merely to shock. I appreciate your right to demonstrate peacefully, but it seems you don't think of the small children in this public area that can be severely traumatized by the pictures you bring. It would appear you care only for fetuses and not small children.
What's really outrageous is that parents would be forced to explain to young children that this is something that is legally done to babies in the womb in order to end their life prematurely. And the children would then question why we would allow this to happen. And the parents would have to answer that question.
