Hundreds of young people are beginning to arrive in Washington, D.C., to begin a weekend of pro-life demonstrations prior to Tuesday's March for Life.
Well over 100,000 marchers are expected for the annual event, a majority of whom will be young people. Bryan Kemper of Rock for Life, a division of the American Life League, says they are motivated about the pro-life issue because they take it personally.
“These young people are realizing that this is their generation that has been slaughtered by abortion — this is their generation that's being affected by it,” Kemper says. “Their cry is 'Stop killing my generation!'”
Kemper commends the young people for their firm stand. “They're out there letting the world know that they're tired of their generation, for the first nine months of their life, not having any [equal] value as … everyone else has,” he says. “So the young people are coming out there in … amazing numbers, standing up for what's right and standing up for pro-life.”
Kemper says these young people will be protesting, praying, and praising God during the days leading up to the massive march in support of the unborn.
Abortion Fallout in China
Millions of unborns have suffered greatly from abortion in communist China, where the nation has turned to abortion to solve its population problem — but that solution has resulted in even more difficult problems. Since establishing its policy of one child per family, communist China has aborted 120 million babies — almost all of them unborn girls.
Bob Knight of the Culture and Family Institute says China's overabundance of men has created a two-headed problem. “There's a rise in homosexuality that has been reported,” Knight says. “The second [problem] is a fear that there will be a rise in militarism in China, because all that male energy has to go somewhere.”
Prostitution and sexually transmitted diseases are also on the rise in China and spreading from there into adjoining nations.
