A new film has been made about the abortion industry called "BLOODMONEY" which needs our support. View a trailer for this documentary film here. It exposes the deceit of the abortion business. Coming opportunities to see "BloodMoney": None scheduled at this time For assistance in showing the film Blood Money in the Chicago area, contact: Vince Jans at 224-629-6955 or vincejans@sd54.org. "BloodMoney" was shown in 2010 at the Pickwick Theater (5 South Prospect Avenue, Park Ridge, IL 60068). For other show dates and times, check www.bloodmoneyfilm.com/screenings.php. Critics may claim that the movie is spun by the "anti-abortion" camp; but besides those who aborted their children, the movie also features three people who helped jump-start the abortion industry: Norma McCorvey AKA "Roe" in Roe vs Wade; Dr. Bernard Nathanson who helped: found the "National Abortion Rights Action League", legalize abortion, and can & sell the catch phrase "pro-choice"; & Carol Everett who owned and ran an abortuary for six years as of 1973. |
