‘19,000 future fans aborted’: Mysterious billboard calls Tuscaloosa ‘abortion capital of Alabama’

A new billboard has popped up in Tuscaloosa that declares “Title Town” as the “abortion capital of Alabama.”

The billboard started making the rounds on Twitter on Friday, with one user sharing an image of it along with the caption, “ABORTION NATIONAL CHAMPS!!”

The billboard includes a reference to ttownfacts.com, which provide statistics on abortion in America and Alabama.

The website says, “Of the 6,063 Alabama abortions in 2017, 3,148 of them occurred in Tuscaloosa. In 2017 there were 3,148 abortions and 2,538 births in Tuscaloosa.”

The website also provides an “informed decision checklist,” along with a separate list of sources for the information on the site.

No organization is listed on the website or the billboard, and domain registration searches do not yield the identity of the entity responsible for the website.

The West Alabama Women’s Center in Tuscaloosa, the Alabama Women’s Center in Huntsville and Reproductive Health Services in Montgomery are currently the state’s only active abortion clinics.
