Small Alaskan community shows pro-life colours

Palmer residents host their own March for Life for first time

While massive crowds took to the streets in Washington, D.C., during the March for Life in January, a small community in Alaska decided to participate from afar for the first time.

"Each year, since Roe vs. Wade was decided, hundreds of thousands of pro-life Americans have made their way to Washington, D.C., to demand an end to abortion," a statement from the group said.

"D.C. is a long way for we Alaskans to travel, so why not stay closer to home and still share the same message: abortion is a travesty of epic proportions and it must be stopped!"

More than 300 people came out to protest abortion. More on their snowy protest here.
