We had an awful scene at the Hope(less) mill this Saturday morning, in the bitter cold. Savanah and I arrived at 6:40 am--the mill already had 10 cars on their lot and in the building: Florida, Indiana, Ohio, Missouri--one Illinois.

About 9:30, a state trooper from Tennessee pulled onto the Catholic hospital lot with a young girl, who was clutching a teddy bear (a Beanie Baby), and visibly upset. He was yelling at her to "get out" of his "state car", but she wouldn't. When the pro-lifers offered to help her, she looked bewildered, and started crying more.

Then he panicked and drove across the lot onto the abortion clinic's lot, got out, and ordered her "out". She jumped out and slowly walked into the mill clutching her bear, while the deathscorts carted her into the mill.

The trooper looked young--about 30 years old. She looked to be maybe 14 or 15 years old--no bigger than Savanah. He got back in his car, and parked, and took off his state license plates (but not before we got them on video and pictures). He proceeded into the mill after he hid his plates. It was awful.

Does the state of Tennessee pay for their employees' abortions at taxpayers' expense? Drive them in state official cars over state lines? At whose expense? If you need more information, let me know--you can call in with a "clinic update".

God Bless!

PS--There were 42 cars at the clinic on Thursday night for "midnight abortions", 51 cars there on Friday morning, and 48 cars there on Saturday morning.
