Raped at 12, still deeply wounded
The Genocide Awareness Project at Oakland University.
by Jacqueline Hawkins
She was raped at age 12. She was told she would die if she carried the baby. So the young girl aborted.
Now a student at Oakland University, she peppered Mark Williams of CBR United Kingdom with questions. Lots of questions.
As they spoke, she opened up about her life. She grew up poor with an alcoholic mother and an absent father. Today she is a prostitute to make ends meet.
Mark saw how she had been deeply wounded in life, and how her pro-abortion stance was all she could trust. After all, it had gotten her out of a very difficult situation before, perhaps when nothing else could. (Not really, but that’s how she saw it.)
Mark told her how Jesus had helped him through many personal trials and asked to pray for her. By the end of the conversation, Mark sensed that her heart and mind were changing. He asked if she viewed abortion differently, after their discussion. The young woman said she did; she even understood why we display abortion images.
As a result of this experience and many others, Mark noted that in America, while pro-aborts may start with an outburst of vitriol, there is often an openness that is not so common on the streets of London.
Perhaps because Americans are less inclined to keep a “stiff upper lip,” Mark was able to see how deeply hurt, abused, unloved, and rejected so many pro-aborts feel. They confirmed it in a way he rarely sees in the UK.

BBC 1: The Big Question – Should abortion be a private matter?
CBR United Kingdom Director Andy Stephenson was on The Big Question, a program on BBC One, the flagship TV station of the British Broadcasting Company (BBC). The Big Question on this day was, “Should abortion be a private matter?”
Andy’s answer was “Yes … if …” Great sound bites you can use:
- There should be unrestricted access to abortion, if the unborn child is not a human being.
- All we’re doing is showing people what they do.
- Why would the truth be intimidating?
- If abortion is such a good idea, why to pictures of it make people so angry?
- It is not a controversial issue that life begins at conception. If they want to get rid of us, we will leave tomorrow if they can prove to us, with science, that the preborn child being killed is not a human being.
- On filming: That’s why we film [our own work]; we knew there would be false allegations. We knew we had to document our displays. We invite the police to attend every display we do.
Pro-life activists all over the planet are employing CBR-developed methods of legally educating the public about two key facts: (1) Who this the preborn? and (2) What does abortion do to him or her?
