Vandals Destroy Pro-Life Billboard Again, Paint “Anti-Women” Over Image of Pregnant Mom
Vandals defaced another pro-life billboard in Vernon, Canada this winter, spray-painting “anti-women” across the image of a pregnant mother.
Kelowna Cap News reports the Vernon and Area Pro Life Society has sponsored the billboard along Highway 97 for years, promoting pro-life messages to passers-by.
Its latest message reads, “Abortion is not healthcare” and “Pregnancy is not a disease” next to the image of a pregnant mother.
Sometime last week, pro-abortion vandals defaced the billboard with red, blue and black paint, scribbling out words to make it read “abortion is health care” and painting “anti-women” over the image of the pregnant mother, according to images in local news reports.
Marlon Bartram, part-time director of the pro-life society, said vandals have destroyed their billboards multiple times over the past year.
“Vandalism has been used regularly by pro-abortion advocates for many years as a way to try and silence the pro-life message,” Bartram told the local news. “It just doesn’t surprise us anymore, and it shouldn’t. Those with a blatant disregard for the very lives of pre-born human beings will naturally care little for the property of born people.”

He told Castanet they recently covered the billboard in plastic to make it easier to remove spray-paint, but the vandals ripped the plastic away before they defaced it. He said local pro-lifers plan to try to clean the billboard or replace it, and they filed a police report.
Pro-life advocates across the world have seen an alarming increase in vandalism and other hostilities as they work to defend unborn babies’ lives. LifeNews has been keeping track of these reports in recent years.
