Young Josh Wheeler was marching in a peaceful, pro-life demonstration in Washington, DC Friday, when he and his father were assaulted by a protester with a large stick. After the protester smashed the boy’s pro-life sign, other abortion activists stormed in to abuse the pro-lifers and vandalize and disrupt the march.

Meanwhile, pro-abortion protesters shouted demands for “free abortion on demand” – without being disrupted by pro-life activists (see video in story).
