March for Life 2007
The March for Life 2007 was chaotic as usual with thousands of people converging on the Mall and surronding area in Washington, D.C. on Monday. It was a cold day, and muddy, but that didn't stop the groups who arrived from all over the country to show their support of life.
I love to read all the signs at the March to see where people are from. Here's a rundown on the states I saw present: New Hampshire, Connecticut, Massachusetts, New Jersey, New York, Maryland, Virignia, North Carolina, Florida, Alabama, Texas, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Illinois, Indiana, Kansas, Louisianna, Wisconsin, Michigan, Arizona, North Dakota, Kentucky, Kansas.
My friend and I drove 8 hours to attend the March, but many of these people spent many more hours on buses to attend. I'm always impressed by the time and difficulty that these people endure just walk for 2 hours, often in bitter cold, and then go home again. One day sacrifices like these will pay off big.
