Pro-life flash mob takes demonstrators by surprise



We've all seen the classical music and opera "flash mobs" popping up in mall food courts around the country in recent months. Well, here's a new, pro-life take on the trend.

Over at Father Z's Blog today, we learn that this Chicago demonstration countered a "Walk for Choice" rally being held February 26:

As a response to the “Walk for Choice,” anonymous teens and young
adults organized a “Pro-Life Flash Mob” over the span of a few
days. The goal of the event was not to counter-protest, but to give a
positive message of joy and life to Chicago.

The youth assembled inconspicuously around the plaza before the rally
hiding their giant yellow balloons in black trash bags. When the
“Walk for Choice” had assembled, the youth prompted by music
coming from a backpack sound system then proceeded to unveil the helium balloons imprinted with the word “LIFE.”

These exclusive videos shows the “Pro-Life Flash Mob” taking the
“pro-choicers” by surprise with Life, Spirit, and Truth!
