A group of pro-life teens and young adults were yelled at and subjected to obscene gestures while peacefully protesting at abortion clinics and college campuses around the state last month.But the 22 young people, on a five-day tour with Olympia-based Show the Truth Washington, also received honks and waves of encouragement, had non-confrontational interactions with the public and even helped save an unborn child.

It’s not surprising that many people, both pro-abortion and pro-life, find the group’s graphic signs objectionable.
“They’re offensive in the extreme and that’s really the point of it,” said Andrew Walsh, a 17-year-old from Holy Rosary Church in Portland, Ore. “If abortion is that offensive, why do we allow it? We’re here to speak the truth and that’s what we do,”
