Picketers protest at governor's residence
Anti-abortionists say property's use by Planned Parenthood is inappropriate.

Anti-abortion protesters picketed the Indiana governor's residence Thursday, objecting to a party for Planned Parenthood they said was an inappropriate use of the Meridian Street property.

State Sen. Jeff Drozda, R-Westfield, speaking for the 50 sign-carrying protesters, said the state attorney general's office has questioned whether Planned Parenthood has followed Indiana law in cases involving reproductive health care for young people.

"It is public property, and no one can dispute that," Drozda said of the governor's residence. "However, when you have the Medicaid Fraud Unit of the state of Indiana investigating possible criminal activity, those are very, very severe issues."

The senator is a former executive vice president of Indiana Right to Life.

This truly makes me want to move out of the state...but I think I'll stay and fight and wake these people up to reality.
