I’m guessing such a person wearing that message would get as much if not more flak from the pro-aborts

because, as we’ve discussed, it’s ABSOLUTELY NECESSARY to them that there be no hint of “wrongness” about abortion.

Such a message would cause their conscience to convict them, and that is exactly what they seek to avoid.

I missed your post earlier. Why would flak from pro-abort people cause the wearer of the shirt pangs of conscience? If the message is simply "I regret my abortion", what's the pro-abort person going to say? If they say the person shouldn't regret the abortion, then they prove themselves to be morally bankrupt. If they say the person should regret their abortion, then they contradict their claim that abortion is fine and dandy. So how could a pro-abort person possibly impugn the morality or conscience of a woman wearing such a shirt?
