Pro-choice protest sign ideas?
So every year on Good Friday this mostly Catholic group has a anti-choice protest outside one of our hospitals that provides abortion. And there's a pro-choice counterprotest, normally we don't get big numbers but I think this year we're a lot more organized and ahead of the game, so hopefully this'll be the year we outnumber them XD
Anyway, I'm trying to come up with protest signs. So far I like "I asked God, She's pro-choice." "If you're pro-life, why aren't you protesting: Militarization? War? Colonialism? Racism? Poverty?" And I might have been trying to come up with a clever "I got 99 problems and the Pope ain't one" >.> I might also do something with the statistic that Catholics have just as many abortions as anyone else, but I feel like I should keep it short and sweet.
Anyone have suggestions? Favourites?

Also: "If life begins at conception, why are you against birth control?"

Because pre-marital sex is what they really have a problem with.

Yeah, every sperm is sacred, be fruitful and multiply and all that jazz. Don't think that would work with a Catholic group.
My friend is going with "Not every ejaculation needs a name."

Catholicism is against abortion because it limits the number of children they get to molest.
I BEG you to make that sign. Please, Saya.

I've been thinking of making a sign similar to that, "I won't take reproductive advice from a celibate ex-Nazi who hid child molesters" or something along those lines.

That's not bad. Yours is above the belt though.

Actually, the renegade option is to punch the other protesters in the face. I know my bioware.

I shot Kaiden in the gut. It was the only time I ever felt like it was a bad guy thing. Renegades aren't really bad guys.

That's what I liked about Mass Effect's paragon/renegade dialogue. It wasn't really good/evil, because, for the most part, you could justify either one of the options.
The Old Republic really annoys me about that. It's specifically good/evil most of the time, and I hate how douche baggy some of the options are. I don't really mind on my Sith character because I can understand how they think, but it made absolutely no sense for my bounty hunter. I found myself picking the dark side dialogue options, not because I felt they were appropriate or interesting, but because the game specifically has mechanics that reward characters that are far enough into one side of the spectrum. I'd miss out if I picked and chose. /rant and derail.

Good luck, Saya, with the protest.
