Hundreds gather for first-ever Men’s March against abortion in DC Video by Life Site News
Beginning at 11 a.m., the men gathered for prayer at Washington Surgi-Clinic, a late-term abortion facility. The abortionist at this clinic, Dr. Cesare Santangelo, was caught on tape in 2013 agreeing to deny medical care to a viable child who survives an abortion. The men then proceeded to march to the White House.
In a conversation with LifeSiteNews, event organizer Jim Havens warned young men who are considering taking their wives or girlfriends to an abortion clinic not to “fall into the lie of abortion.”

“The truth is, this child is already here; this child is already infinitely valuable, as [are] you, as is that mom,” he continued. “Tell her that you’re going to be there to support her, to support that child and step up as a man.”
Fr. Stephen Imbarrato counseled, “Every abortion wounds a woman, and a man is involved in every single abortion, so I think the abortion industry, the culture of death, wants to marginalize men and tell men, ‘It’s not any of your business.’”
He compared the men of today to Adam, who blamed Eve after eating the forbidden fruit in the Garden of Eden. “Men need to stand up, and stand up for women, try to protect women from being wounded and of course protect the most vulnerable, our babies,” he continued.
Brother Pio, a Franciscan friar of Primitive Observance, told LifeSiteNews that he came to “be a voice for the voiceless.” He explained that the family is the “domestic church,” and fatherhood “has been under attack for years in the media.”
Jeff Joaquin, a father who deeply regrets allowing his baby to be aborted, told men that if they made the same decision, they would “never be able to get away” from the loss of their child.
