Sounds like a bad SCAM.

I am pro-life, 100%, but that whole page is a SCAM. It smells way to fishy.

Why do you say that?

They give contact information.  Call them on the phone and find out.  Have them fax you the doctors reports.

Then, if it turns out to be true, presumably all the pro-lifers will find their checkbooks to save the life of that baby.

They are NOT giving an assurance that they will keep the baby. So, why should any one send them money without an assurance??!! It doesn't make much sence. Sounds like they just want money.

I'll call it a SCAM. Why do they need $50,000? Why is death or money the only options?

"Our two real options are either having and raising the child, or aborting."
 
To selfish to offer the child for adoption?

It sounds like a ransome to me.

I'm "pro-life", except for al qeada and a bunch of people in Washington, D.C.



dawntreader -> RE: Pro-lifers. Put up or Shut up. (6/18/2007 3:49:30 PM)

i am just amazed this stuff exists online...and what fools would actually send money!



domiguy -> RE: Pro-lifers. Put up or Shut up. (6/18/2007 3:53:23 PM)

So far my buddies and I have raised almost $8,700.00 with the help of this little gem....If projections hold up...I will be hosting "Domipalooza" near the end of August....Subs , beer and pizza for all!!!....There will be some crack....Well...ummmm ....Lots of crack.



queencaliph -> RE: Pro-lifers. Put up or Shut up. (6/18/2007 3:59:44 PM)

I'm amazed also. They may not have money but they have plenty of unmitigated gall.

Now who wants to bet that they will raise the money?

Yep.



popeye1250 -> RE: Pro-lifers. Put up or Shut up. (6/18/2007 4:04:15 PM)

Wait a minute, I'm "pro life" but I'm also "pro death too!



slaveboyforyou -> RE: Pro-lifers. Put up or Shut up. (6/18/2007 4:04:25 PM)

I can believe there are people doing this.  It's not the lowest thing I have seen people do for money.  I remember a woman going around the country giving crack addicts $50 if they agreed to be sterilized. 



juliaoceania -> RE: Pro-lifers. Put up or Shut up. (6/18/2007 4:11:08 PM)

I think they will be opting for the abortion, because no one is going to send them money whether they are legit or not... It is really easy to rail against poor people that opt for abortions, it requires sacrifice to provide for the offspring some would force them to have... since I have no qualms about being prochoice I will keep my checkbook[;)]

If you honestly don't have a clue, no amount of explaining is going to make a dent[8|]..........luci

Made me suspicious, too.  Give us money or we'll kill it, because it will be too hard to let it live by giving it away.

Every day I'm thankful for my two beautiful nephews whose birthmothers chose to give them to our family.  Every day I'm thankful for yet another nephew whose mother cancelled her abortion appointment, and who, 20 years ago, stayed at home to raise the baby on my brother's wage of $7 an hour.

We all have choices, yes.  The website made me think of someone using a fear tactic/threat to bring in donations.  They could simply have said they really really want this baby but please help...and I think they would have received a favorable response.  For me it doesn't necessarily matter what the issue is; I'm not a fan of scare tactics and implied threats.

Where is the contact info at?  All I saw was we agree to forfeit $25,000 for breaking the terms and conditions one of them being the following   You agree not to contact InvisiHosting about our site. You agree that knowing our identitiy is not a condition of your gift.  Sorry but this screams scam.  Unfortunately someone will give money believing this crap is real.  Let's hope it's someone who can afford to piss the money away and not some little old lady on a limited income who will be hurting for it till the next SS check comes.



Lucylastic -> RE: Pro-lifers. Put up or Shut up. (6/18/2007 7:10:24 PM)
