"RSteyn" seems to have departed FR. There is a young woman whom I've known for her entire life who was raped and became pregnant last year. She now has a one year old baby and she will be the first to tell you how her greatest joy in life has come from her biggest tragedy.

The whole rape-abortion argument is a juvenile trait that most people grow out of before they get out of elementary school. It is really no different than a child bargaining with his parents to be allowed to do something, eventually the child says, "well can I do it if such and such condition is met?" The parent agrees because they know that the likelihood of that condition being met are essentially nil.
I usually just look at these "we have to save abortion because of rape and incest" types and tell them it's fine by me. As long as a police report has been filed and the young woman is prepared to fully cooperate in prosecuting the man, then she should be allowed to have her abortion. The bottom line is that this argument covers less than 10,000 women a year, while the abortion industry is killing more than 3,500 babies EVERY SINGLE DAY.
I guess that means you've given up trying to persuade the "we have to save abortion because of rape and incest types."
I agree, they're using a "juvenile" argument. And I agree, it could be a sign of a character flaw they'll never grow out of.
But OTOH, I think that photo is so powerful, it could change a few minds.
At the very least, it might get them past some of their pre-conceptions, so to speak!
RSteyn does seem to have fled the thread. Is it possible he or she is pondering something read here...might have had a glimmer of light penetrate through the fog of feminazi propaganda that clouds his or her thinking? We can hope.
