Celebrate Life by Celebrating a Murder

If you were looking for a wholesome, family event and were in the Milwaukee, Wisconsin area, Ann Friedman of Feministing has the event for you.

If anyone still thinks we should refer to the anti-abortion movement as “pro-life,” this event next week should change their mind. The forced-pregnancy movement is holding a four-day rally to honor Paul Hill, who murdered abortion provider Dr. John Britton and his clinic escort in Pensacola, Florida in 1994.

George L. Wilson, the site’s proprietor, lists the itinerary and one item — which Friedman points out in her post — is a reenactment of Britton’s murder that Hill was executed for perpetrating. (The murder scene is featured prominently in the website’s banner image.)
