Showing that crap to my kids is not going to get R v W overturned. It will, however, give my kids nightmares.

That "crap" as you so elegantly put it, is the remains of a child's body and is, by far, the single most effective way to get across to any human being the nature of the act.

Will such efforts overturn Roe vs. Wade? Probably not. But what it does do is force every pro-choice person that sets eyes on the display to consider the indisputable truth.

Every other function of the fight for or against abortion is trumped by those images.

As far as kids go - I don't want very young kids to be forced to see them but I also will not concede the more important right of adults to see the images that they probably would never otherwise see. I do not support the liberal notion of "it's bad for the children" argument. Under that view, almost nothing could be "shown" of the reality of abortion and in this situation the most important people that need to be shown that reality are are kids themselves before their whole world is skewed by the public education system.

Sorry but the kids will survive. They already have once - when their mother chose LIFE.

My kids see it - I want them to. They are very young. I want them to know the truth, and do not wish to feed them some idyllic fantasyland. I tell them that this is the world in which we live, that this heinous act is "legal" and is applauded by many of the people around us. I do not need to explain to them that it is evil - they know it instinctively.

They will not be shocked when it is shown in public as on these trucks.

Isn't it fascinating... Isn't it fascinating that those who think nothing of scrambling a little tiny baby to bits are so very concerned about - not physical harm - but merely upsetting children who escaped their mothers' wombs? Isn't that just dandy...

It’s nice to know that you feel so superior that you can decide what is fine to show my kids better than I can. Nope, you can’t just lead people to Christ through example. You’ve got to push something into people’s faces and demand that their children look at it because YOU think it’s worth it. Nevermind that they’re my children and I already have a very good idea of their mindset and when they will be ready to be approached about that kind of thing. Nope, you have an agenda and that’s final. Nevermind that my wife and I are pro-life and will pass that sentiment on to our kids. We’re not pro-life enough for you so you’re going to do something about it. What a fantastic person you are.
