(2) Yet, when worse violence is directed toward an unborn child, its not considered newsworthy and is unmentionable.....perhaps gruesome sensationalism is not the smart way to channel your message.

The point isn't the gruesomeness per se - it's the disjunction. People should be asked why they blanch at violence against puppies but not against babies.

If the smart way to spread the message is by throwing a fig leaf over what abortion really is, I don't see how that works. We can either call it what is or acquiesce in the antiseptic terminology of "procedure".
