Why don't "pro-life" protestors ever seem to know where to protest? (lemmy.world)

Probably about once a month I drive past these protestors at a fertility clinic. They are always protesting abortion and saying how so many babies die there.

This particular clinic does not perform abortions at all. Ever. It never has.

Today one of their signs also said "babies are orphanized here." What does that even mean? Do they think parents are killed there? Or is it because people leave their embryos stored there?

Do they also think babies are "orphanized" at hospitals when a parent leaves their room to go to the cafeteria?

I just can't understand these people.

Damn homie. Don't attack people with the same level of ignorance you are trying to defend against. While most people devoted enough to religion to have it influence how they vote may not be the brightest tool in the shed but that doesn't make them evil hearted people. Theyre brought up under a singular understanding that abortion is killing babies. Every single person I know who doesn't support freedom of choice is doing it because they believe they are preventing babies from being killed.
