Buenos Aires, Argentina, Aug 6, 2009 / 15:03 pm
A telephone service set up by the pro-abortion organization “Women on Waves” to explain how to get illegal abortions in Argentina was crashed by pro-lifers this week who saturated the line with calls and maxed out the system’s voice mail.
The toll-free service, known as the “death line,” featured a pre-recorded message informing callers of its hours of operation and allowing them to leave a message to get more information about abortion.
Members of pro-life organizations flooded the line with calls and maxed out the system’s voice mail. Pro-life leaders encouraged members to continue calling the number to voice their rejection of the service, which violates Argentinean law.
