Yesterday, I saw this truck parked downtown. It's about abortion. http://i1058.photobucket.com/albums/t401/justtheforums/432223_10151313462425015_607425014_22886851_1864125015_n.jpg Not sure of the rules here for the kind of pictures that can be posted, but just click the link and check it out. It's a bit graphic. Do you think this type of thing is appropriate for a downtown area, where there may be children that can see it? If you have a child, would you want some completely random stranger telling your child about abortion and what it may look like (even if the photo is probably photoshopped)? Also, do you think this kind of shock tactic actually works? I don't believe it will change anyone's mind.

It's a free country and once you start to tell one group of people that they can't it's just a matter of time before you can't.

It was parked in the parking lot by the end of the city dock near the restaurants/bars.

It's not nearly as extreme a tactic as murdering an abortion doctor or blowing up an abortion clinic....yet many are quite alright with that. I would think then if violence is acceptable, many would not have a problem with this either.

You know what the irony is,if they make it illegal you'll actually see this in real life,only a clothes hanger will be stuck in it.

ok then since you can't read between the lines NO it is not going to far and YES it is perfectly acceptable.

You know what the irony is,if they make it illegal you'll actually see this in real life,only a clothes hanger will be stuck in it. why? because more women will be doing the abortion attempts themselves,atleast with it being legal they can have it done in a clean and somewhat safe enviroment.Look i'm not a 100% supporter of abortion,there has to be circumstances why the woman is getting one,but technically if iam or not she can do it anyways cause it's her body.Making it illegal will just make higher rates of dumpster babies and bacterial infections that could kill her and the zygote anyways.What really is making it illegal gonna serve.Is it gonna stop a woman from doing it?It's legal now and women still try to go blackmarket or do it themselves.
