A 10\u2019 x 15\u2019 screen projecting images of aborted children and pro-life messages was set up immediately across the street from ABR\u2019s offices. Meanwhile, using 40\u2019-long purple banners spanning the full width of the two-lane streets reading \u201cTheir bodies are not property,\u201d and \u201cEnd fetal organ harvesting,\u201d the activists shut down traffic, first at Oak Street and Lincoln Avenue, then at Lincoln Avenue and Park Street \u2014 two of Alameda\u2019s principal downtown intersections \u2014 for approximately one hour and 30 minutes, respectively.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Leaders from the organizations that planned the action addressed the crowd using bullhorns, noting the relative unimportance of a minor traffic delay compared to the human rights atrocities happening around the corner every day. At the same time, flyers explaining the reason for the action were distributed to drivers stuck in the traffic pileup, and individual activists engaged drivers and passersby in conversations about the unethical nature of fetal organ harvesting and the duty of every citizen to take a stand against it.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When asked about the strategy behind this particular action, <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.prolifesf.com\/about\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Kristin Turner<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, Executive Director of Pro-Life San Francisco, said:<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><em><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">People haven\u2019t been listening to us scream about [abortion and fetal trafficking] for the last two years, so we\u2019re going to stop them from getting their morning coffee and make them realize people are dying.
