WASHINGTON, Nov. 5 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- The following was released today by Randall Terry:

On Thursday afternoon, November 5, 2009, 12 pro-lifers were arrested inside or outside in the hall at Nancy Pelosi's office, #235 Cannon office building.

They entered, with two complete copies of the bill - all 2,000 pages (4,000) - and proceeded to rip it up, page by page, and strew it on the floor.

Approximately 150 supporters were in the hall, chanting: "Kill the bill!". About 10 supporters of the bill chanted "Health care for all!". Approximately 30 police were on-site, arresting pro-lifers, one at a time. No supporters of the bill were arrested.

Among those arrested was pro-life legend Father Norman Weslin, age 78.
