Pro-Life Activist Doing EXTRA Jail Time - I wish I could be like her!

 

 This is Mary Wagner, she is a pro-life activist in Ontario who was sentenced to 6 months of jail time because she enters abortion clinics with roses and pamphlets, and peacefully offers support and counseling to the women waiting to have abortions. She loves them, cares for them, offers OTHER options and never causes a scene, never stages protests or attacks abortionists. She HAS been asked to leave and refused.
Two weeks ago an Ontario Court of Justice Judge Ford S. Clements had his own loud rant that included the following:
"She can sit in jail for all I care, if that's the only way to protect people"
He called her "cowardly" and "abusing other human beings" " This is an extraordinary waste of resources. Get a grip!"
"You don’t get it, do you? What’s the rule of law? You’re required to abide by it … You’ve lost the right as a citizen to be anywhere near an abortion clinic or to speak to an employee,” he said.
“You’re wrong and your God’s wrong,” he continued. “You have complete contempt … There is a right to (abortion) in this country … You don’t have a right to cause (abortion-seeking women) extra pain and grief the way you do.”

“[Abortion] is legal,” he continued, “that’s all you have to understand … You start causing people emotional pain and harm, you think that’s okay?”
He then asked Wagner whether she would stay away from abortion sites for three years as required by the proposed terms of probation.
“I will not,” Wagner replied firmly.
“Then you’re going to jail,” said Clements.

I wish I was more like Mary Wagner, she is following GOD'S laws, not the Judge's (who apparently thinks he's god), not the World's. She is trying to HELP these women! How ridiculous that entering an abortion clinic with roses and a supportive hug and ear is considered "abusive" and "causing EXTRA pain and grief", obviously this Judge has NO clue what happens to a woman after she has an abortion.

POST-ABORTIVE SYNDROME:
Emotional Side Effects

• Women may develop eating disorders, or may suffer from alcohol and drug abuse, as a response to the depression that occurs after an abortion.
• In some cases, women may have repeated flashbacks of the entire procedure of abortion, which excessively increases the guilt to the point where women may begin to contemplate suicide, and have a spate of suicidal thoughts.
• An abortion also affects the relationships that were associated with the unborn child.
• The emotional stress may also affect a woman's sex life, leading to sexual dysfunction.

Physical Side Effects - there are the physical side effects that occur in the following hours, days and even weeks following the abortion

• Abdominal pain, cramping and diarrhea
• Nausea and vomiting
• Reaction to anesthesia
• Spotting and bleeding (for 12 days or longer)
• Headaches and dizziness
• Fever and chills
• Nausea and vomiting
• Cramping and diarrhea

The physical side effects that could be long term are actually endless so I will not list them all, but you can read everything at:  http://www.buzzle.com/articles/abortion-side-effects-of-abortion

• Heavy or persistent bleeding
• Infection or sepsis
• Damage to the cervix
• Scarring of the uterine lining
• Perforation of the uterus
• Damage to other organs
• Death

Mary Wagner is what we should ALL be doing! Reaching out to these women in their darkest, loneliest times and making sure they understand ALL the risks, consequences, side effects, offering a friendly, supportive hug and to listen to them. Since abortion clinics do not see this as a serious surgery and not a "human" they do not treat it sensitively for these women who are terrified in that waiting room. They treat it like you are removing an appendix, and we all know it is NOT an appendix and it doesn't feel like you just removed an appendix when you feel your baby being removed.

SUPPORT MARY WAGNER!
