Duchess-- A difficult one. I certainly agree that it should be done with more consideration, especially since they type of pictures you refer to are almost always of extreme late-term abortions, probably carried out for emergency medical reasons, and not truly representative.
Of course, shock tactics are what drives this whole thing. The very point of it is to outrage and horrify people in an attempt to get support. And who is more likely to be outraged and horrified by it than the parents of young children?
Here, it's probably a question of the ethics of the demonstrators. Personally, I consider it unethical to do it in that way. However, these people too often don't seem that concerned with it, merely with pushing their side of the story.
Are there sufficient grounds to prevent them from doing it?
