The 40 Days for Life Campaign has had to adjust its procedures to protect volunteers. These adjustments include filming the volunteers during each prayer vigil at every 40 Days for Life location. Filming helps to deter individuals who may harass or interfere with the work of saving babies, reduces false accusations, and can also exculpate pro-lifers who are unjustly targeted by local police.

The law has also emboldened pro-abortion activists. Near a college campus campaign in Madrid, abortion advocates pasted printed signs on the metal poles that stated: “Attention: Dangerous religious fundamentalists on the loose,” “STOP fanaticism,” “40 Days of hating women” and “40 days against human rights.” But little else is more fanatical or demonstrates more hatred for human rights than persecuting peaceful pro-lifers or facilitating the killing of nascent human life.

Not to be outdone, the 40 Days for Life campaign in Spain released images mocking the attempted intimidation.  In particular, one post states “Day 1 of the campaign: Danger!! Religious fundamentalist on the loose… armed with a rosary.” 

In other Instagram posts, inspiration is provided by ‘If God is with us, who can be against us?” and “Courage… I have overcome the world.”
