Default Radical Womanhood: 'I Was Adopted, Not Aborted'

One common misunderstanding about Opine is that because we find tremendous social value in responsible procreation that we are not pro-adoption. Adoption is a specific act for the child to try to help restore responsible married family environment where none was available before. I wish others were as pro-adoption. From Radical Womanhood, (Hattip Depravity), a story of a struggle during a protest march...
<span class="fullpost">
Lucas was two years old in 1992 when Marty took him to his first March for Life in Washington, D.C. "As we walked, we encountered a whole section of pro-abortion feminists," Marty recalls. "They were angry and antagonistic about the rally. So I stepped up, holding Lucas and said, 'I adopted him. Look at him! He could have been aborted.' I assumed they were be affected by this cute little boy, but it didn't affect them one bit. They shouted expletives in return. I was horrified by their reaction."
Lucas and his siblings have attended every March for Life since then, carrying signs saying, "I was adopted, not aborted." Often they are applauded. Sometimes they are jeered. In one recent march, Marty was confronted by a group of self-proclaimed atheists who yelled at her for bringing her children, accusing her of forcing them to come and carry these signs. Lucas immediately stepped up and corrected them, saying he wanted to come: "I believe in this. My life was spared! I definitely want to be here."
Then he witnessed to them, sharing the good news of Jesus' life, death, and resurrection.
