oh and i forgot, i dont see a problem with the photos being published in magazines and books, where intelligent minds are likely to see them. What i find to my distaste, is the violence of plastering photos where every one can see them, and where tender minds can be abused.,
Im not ignorant to the fact that children will be vulnerable to hurt at somepoint in their lives, but doing it on purpose and without sensitivity to a childs welfare is ...well...wrong.
The violence of a protest is best kept out of a childs life untill the mother feels the child is old enough to make his/her own opinions about it, and wont be caught up in the furore with such ease by emotional pulls etc.
I generally think the photos are good for expressing the reality of abortion. But i think it will only be considered with thought by mature people. and therefore should be kept out of the sight of those to whom it may be potentially damaging.
