To Buffalo for Kopp!

January 22, 2003

If you were walking down the street and you saw somebody with a knife about to cut a baby's throat open, what should you do? Should you call for a referendum on cutting babies' throats? Should you write a letter to your congressman? Vote Republican? Run to a payphone and call the police?

There is another option. You could utilize all the necessary force at your disposal to stop that baby from being butchered. That is precisely what Jim Kopp did when he shot abortionist Barnett Slepian.

Make no mistake about it, you're either on Jim's side or the side of the baby-butcher.

On January 22nd, the thirtieth anniversary of Roe vs. Wade, you will have the opportunity make your voice for Truth heard in Buffalo. Abolitionists from all over the U.S. will be gathering to show solidarity with Jim Kopp. We need you standing in that gathering.

This is your chance to speak up for Jim before his upcoming trial in Buffalo, New York. In that trial, twelve Americans are going to have the right to vote against abortion, the right to lead New York and the nation back home.

Back home to decency.

Back home to an America where the lives of little babies are protected in law.

Back home to an America which helps and defends the downtrodden.

Back home to One Nation Under God.

Jim has chosen the honorable and truthful way. He had the chance to get off scott-free. Based on the shaky evidence against him, he had the chance to be the O.J. of Buffalo. But Jim loves the Truth.

Like our father George Washington, Jim cannot tell a lie. He has chosen instead to give America a chance to expand the circle of protection that the law provides, and regain for little babies everything that the Supreme Court stole from them in 1973.

"This trial has the potential to be historic," said Bruce Barket, attorney for Jim Kopp, "it can be a turning point in the way the country views abortion." Indeed, Jim has risked his freedom for nothing less than an opportunity for America to turn away from legalized child-slaughter. Legalized slavery carried with it 3,000 years of tradition, yet God-fearing men and women were able to abolish it in a generation.

Come to Buffalo and stand together with us as members of a generation of abolitionists commited to opening our mouths for the speechless unborn, and their brave defender, Jim Kopp.
