The Truth Truck vs. The True Stories

The Truth Truck is one of the most popular “pro-life” groups known for driving the streets with pictures of dead fetuses on the side of their trucks. Their website claims they “determine to make the horror of abortion an unavoidable issue and to make the Lord Jesus Christ paramount in our nation”. The Truth Truck organization also claims “They haven’t seen the truth, until now!”



Susan Hill, President of the National Women’s Health Foundation, describes the truth of late-term abortions by explaining that really tragic cases were sent to Dr. Tiller in Wichita, Kansas --“Those included women diagnosed with cancer who needed abortions to qualify for chemotherapy, women who learned late in their pregnancies that their wanted babies had fatal illnesses, and rape victims so young they didn’t realize they were pregnant for months”. Don’t just see the truth trucks, hear and read the truth. The true stories of why abortion must be an option!

“I looked at the woman as she cried about the baby she wanted so badly, & looked in horror at the films showing the cancer eating the child alive. The pain this child must be in & the cries of the parents as they don’t want to let go. Then I hear Dr. Tiller say…”You are so amazing…all the pain your baby is in & you are going to selflessly take that away. You are being strong for him. You are giving him peace he will never know.” 2 days later I cleaned & dressed that little boy before the parents viewed him. The ghastly tumor that had grown through his chest & out his spine a horrific parasite, & a stark reminder of the life he could never have. I watched this little angel at peace & I cried. For all of them. And I felt blessed to be a part of such a wonderful man, who could look in the face of utter hopelessness, & give them comfort. That child was taken home & lovingly laid to rest. That day is how I will remember Dr. Tiller. May his family find the peace he gave so openly”

For me it is disturbing to read pro-choice new-speak. Dehumanizing the life of a vulnerable child in the womb causes me to wretch. We have been exposed to pro-abortion activists and their semantic gymnastics since Roe v Wade. You call unborn babies: 'tissue', 'fetus' and 'sample'. Under the auspices of 'medical authorities' abortion chambers destroy lives and cause moral decay in horrific ways. Shame falls on us all.
