Victorious Demonstration at Van de Putte Campaign Event in Waco!‏


From John Pisciotta, 
Director of Pro-Life Waco


We had 35 enthusiastic pro-lifers (plus the billboard truck) and caught the Leticia Van de Putte TX Lt Gov campaign totally off guard. Pro-lifers held signs at both the front and back entrances to the (government funded) South Waco Community Center. Ms. Leticia came at the front entrance through our greeters about 15 minutes late for the “meet and greet” from 3-4 p.m. Our gang came from far and wide. Robert came from Meridian. Nance drove two hours from Grimes County. Lynn, Carol, and Elizabeth risked their lives to travel Interstate 35 from Round Rock. Does the pro-abortion side have such dedication? About 50 Leticia supporters came to meet her. Their decision to hold the event in a government venue backfired. Supposedly, they had rented one room in the building. However, they had no control over the exterior or even the interior of the building.

 A few pro-lifers entered and asked to join the “meet and greet.” A Leticia staffer initially said the event was by invitation/RSVP. Then we showed them on computer that the McLennan County Democratic Party Facebook page offered an open invitation. With that, it was obvious that we did have the right to join the “meet and greet.” The staffer then pleaded to allow their event without opposition in the room. Since I am such a softie, I said “Okay.” We had a lot of nice interactions among ourselves, as many of us did not know each other. We had many good and spirited interactions with Leticia supporters. Several learned that she is pro-abortion. The demonstration was on a busy street, so many did get a pro-life message.

Pro-Life Waco invited our demonstrators to the famous George’s Restaurant. About 20 came and we had a good time of fellowship and dining at George’s.

 Dear Wendy Davis, we eagerly await your visit to Waco.
