Pro-life demonstration on Connecticut Ave. in Chevy Chase?

So strange. I was driving home on Connecticut Ave. and from Chevy Chase Circle to Bradley Lane, there were a bunch of people holding up very large pro-life posters every few feet. That's a really congested stretch and it was pretty disturbing to see those images. I can't figure out why they were there, though. Does anyone know?

  • yikes.

    my husband works for a women's health org so when i see the term pro-life, i now automatically think "anti's" (short for anti-choice in their lingo)

  • It may be right to life week.  Was there a Catholic church nearby?  I drove by one of those chains last year and was stunned by the sheer number of people out there.

  • @cheeky-I usually try to say anti-choice, too. Of course their teeshirts and signs said pro-life so that's what stuck in my mind.That is a mostly residential neighborhood, so it was even more jarring.

  • That group is usually out in that particular stretch a few times a year. I can never figure out who they are, and I am always disturbed by the high number of teenage boys in that group.
