The Coalition chose to protest for 40 days be cause the number symbolizes the number of days Noah was in the ark, Carney said. Williams also said the number 40 is the num ber of days Christians have historically spent in prayer and fasting. Carney said the Coalition coordinated the pro test with the start of school to inform students about abortions and health care options. Larson said that in the past, volunteer es corts have been used during protests to support Planned Parenthood patients. “Volunteer escorts walk people to and from their cars after they have parked inside the gate, and once they are finished w ith their health care services, we escort them back to their cars.” Larson said. “It is important that (protestors) know that it is their right to be there and to hand out information,” “But the 14th also means it is (the patients’) right to make their own private, child-bearing decisions.” The responses to the protest have been mixed and varied depending on who is driving by. “Some reactions we can't understand, but you can hear that (people) are angry with us. and some times using profanity,” Williams said. Tim Smith, a former student who was w ith his family, has been praying there for three years. “I come out weekly to stand and pray for one hour,” Smith said.
