<\/p>\nThis is one of the advertisements:<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
The article below describes the advertisements as \u201ccontroversial\u201d, in itself a sad indictment on a society that sees controversy in protecting the unborn and none in inviting drag queens into children\u2019s libraries to spread “diversity” to infants.<\/p>\n
Read it all here<\/a>:<\/p>\n A controversial anti-abortion advertisement that had been running on Guelph Transit buses has been removed by the City of Guelph after a complaint was made by a member of the public.<\/p>\n Lifelong Guelphite Fiona Douglas recalls seeing anti-abortion advertising by Guelph & Area Right to Life on Guelph Transit buses since she was a child. Now 27, Douglas has been campaigning for the past few years to have the advertisements removed from public property.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n The nub of the problem is the phenomenon that was unheard of before 2010: triggering. The notion is that if a person is exposed to an idea which runs contrary to his conditioning, it might upset \u2013 trigger \u2013 him.

It upsets me that people are able to make other people question what is right for them and their health care through the lens of human rights,\u201d said Douglas.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n Before anyone jumps to the conclusion that the woman filing the complaint is against free speech, she hastens to assure us that she is all for it. As long as it doesn\u2019t upset anyone:<\/p>\n Douglas said she believes strongly in freedom of speech and acknowledges Right to Life has every right to advertise, but doesn’t want to see messages that are misleading or could be upsetting to some people.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n When is the Anglican church, which loves social action so much it has swapped saving souls for banning pipelines, going to do something socially positive and support groups like the Guelph & Area Right to Life?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" This is one of the advertisements: The article below describes the advertisements as \u201ccontroversial\u201d, in itself a sad indictment on a society that sees controversy in protecting the unborn and none in inviting drag queens into children\u2019s libraries to spread … Continue reading
