"Maybe for the pro-choice crowd, but I, being a pro-lifer find them rather disgusting." Speaking from personal experience, many years ago I was apathetic, intellectually lazy, and indifferent to this issue. Pictures of this type were precisely the shock that I needed to start thinking about the realities of this matter and started me on the intellectual journey that led to my current unabashedly pro-life views. The pro-death, pro-abort movement relies on ignorance and suppression of the truth to keep people indifferent and confused. I recall one particularly graphic image that I'll never be able to forget, andif nothing else, that child's life was not without purpose for having changed my heart.

I glad it had a positive affect on your views. I was subjected to a public display of these types of photos a few years back with my kids in tow, all under 6 years old. It was a very upfront, in your face, unavoidable demonstration. I have been non-supportive of this type of protest ever since. It had a lasting impact on me also, just in a negative way.

"I recall one particularly graphic image that I'll never be able to forget, andif nothing else, that child's life was not without purpose for having changed my heart." You wrote what I needed to hear. :) After all these years I can now remember that one particular graphic image, and that particular child in different light.
A real 'duh' moment for me.
