Pro-life bump....

It is odd that some pro life advocates would think that this message, however grotesque and shocking, would have any effect whatsoever on the choice crowd. I mean, would pro life change its mind if choicers started a media campaign intended to shock and bring attention to their point of view?

No.

This is a feel-good way to do nothing about stopping abortions.

I, for one, would never approve of Pro-Choicers doing such a thing in my name. On another thread about this issue, there were some Pro-lifers who did not agree with the trucks. If you look at that poll, 7% of the voters selected "I may be against abortion, but this is too much."

How? By showing pictures of women with no children?

This is a feel-good way to do nothing about stopping abortions.

Do you not think it possible that even one woman considering having an abortion might change her mind after seeing the images?

Cunningham said he wasn't after the 20% hardcore pro-aborts. He was after the 60% who hadn't made up their minds (paraphrasing).

My first reply to your posting may look like I did not read your posting correctly. That would be correct. I did not read it right.

I agree with what you said 100%
