Randall Terry was the founder of Operation Rescue as an organization by that name.
Before Randall Terry there was John O'Keefe, a Catholic, who is attributed as being the father of the rescue movement.
Terry did coin the word "rescue" though.
Isn't the head of Operation Rescue former leader of the KKK? 68.80.241.179 01:38, 24 July 2006 (UTC)
Unlikely. Got any evidence for your claim? 69.72.44.132 16:59, 24 July 2006 (UTC)
It needs to be noted, also, that the organization began bringing its abortion-related messages to public high schools in 1997, titled "God Is Going Back To School", primarily in the spring and often publicized as week-long events in which their branches and supporters nationwide were to participate.
Anti-Islam and anti-homosexuality topics have grown in prominence since 2001; they appear to have been brought into the school outreach beginning in 2004.
Recently (April 2006) they have mounted a campaign to ban the newly-formed Gay-Straight Alliance at South Rowan High School, which is just a few miles from their office in Concord NC.
I'll try to come back to these, but if someone else gets to it first, that's fine by me. Steve Boese 11:33, 20 April 2006 (UTC)

It's argued (anyone got a citation?) that these images are of stillborn or ill neonates, not aborted fetuses. It could be argued that this is a form of propaganda, but obviously the article is not the place for that discussion. —Preceding unsigned comment added by JustADuck (talk • contribs) 17:37, 27 February 2008 (UTC)
No, this is not correct. You can do a basic google image search (or consult many libraries) and find similar/identical images of aborted fetuses mirroring those from operation rescue. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.193.57.159 (talk) 06:40, 16 January 2009 (UTC)
The two article should be merged. They are both short, the history one is a bit of an orphan and it is unlikely that there will be a need for the separate articles. -- Alan Liefting (talk) - 04:42, 2 June 2009 (UTC)
The article states this is a Concord, NC, based organization, but the address in the contact information they offer is in Dallas, TX. The article will be changed to reflect this fact until someone can show otherwise. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Thatswing (talk • contribs) 15:30, 25 November 2009 (UTC)
I don't know how to edit the article to replace the citation needed with the proper citations. Hopefully someone who edits wikipedia regularly will know how to do this for me:
Ground Zero -- It Starts Here: http://www.christiannewswire.com/news/5871014927.html/ (calling Islam "tyrannical bondage", "darkness", "misery", and a result of God's judgment; "We cannot build bridges or dialogue with this murderous false ideology.")
Operation: Come Near to Me: http://www.christiannewswire.com/news/8760014902.html (calling Islam a symptom of a larger problem; "a tyrannical government and the threat of Islam are the horrific fruits that are being produced under our watch")
Angry protesters descend on mosque: http://www.ctpost.com/news/article/Angry-protesters-descend-on-mosque-606515.php (article speaks for itself: ""Jesus hates Muslims," they screamed at worshippers arriving at the Masjid An-Noor mosque to prepare for the holy month of Ramadan. One protester shoved a placard at a group of young children leaving the mosque. "Murderers," he shouted."; photo caption makes it clear that this was an OSA event)
You can find much more evidence here: http://www.rightwingwatch.org/category/organizations/operation-save-america
If RWW is too partisan for you, just read what they say on their own website: http://www.operationsaveamerica.org/category/islam/
OSA is very clear that they are pro-Christian, pro-Jesus, and anti-everything else--ESPECIALLY Islam.
The citations are abundant.
