"If abortion is such a morally acceptable choice, why do pictures of it make pro-aborts so angry?"
Chad Smalley jumps out of the car in traffic & doesn't pay any attention to his son who could of gotten hit. Nor does he care about the language he is using in front of him. Before he starts attacking the Catholic Church etc, he should worry about the message he is giving to his son, that he doesn't really love his son. In fact, he is just using his son as an excuse to try & silence this group from getting the truth out. Over the years, I have meet more than 1 Chad Smalley.
Here is another video from The Anti-Choice Project. I have met my share of women like this as well.
Maybe, if these women really did care about children they would be upset about what heppenned to the children in these pictures rather than using their children as an excuse. I have to wonder if the real reason the children got upset was because of the women's reactions rather than the pictures.
Do these same people who are so upset about abortion pictures go up to the workers at a bookstore like Border's (or any store that sells the DVDs) & scream because they have a display of the season 4 DVDs of the Showtime series Dexter? FYI, the cover shows Dexter, a serial killer who is also an blood splatter expert for the Miami Police. His face has blood on it. He has his son on his shoulders. The son is holding a sippie that looks like it containds blood. (For those of you who haven't heard of the show, yes Dexter is the hero. He is the good guy because he only kills criminals.) Or did they have a fit that on the magazine rack in full view for any child to see is the latest issue of Rolling Stone Magazine with 3 of the stars of of the cast of HBO's vampire series True Blood, naked (legs strategicly placed) & covered with blood on the cover? I highly doubt that they even thought twice about that. They would say the magazine & DVD were protected under free speech. Something they refuse to extend to the truth about abortion. This is once again, not about their children, but about being faced with the truth.
Here is what they have posted with this video on YouTube about the Principle of Double Effect:
On September 5, 2010, the Anti-Choice Project (ACP) stood at a busy intersection in Silverdale, Washington to protest the killing of babies by abortion.
In a typical reaction to our 4'x3' signs of first trimester aborted babies, two pro-abortion women, unrelated to each other, approached our volunteers at the same time asserting that men had no right to speak about babies being killed in the womb. In addition, both were upset about their children having to see our signs.
Whether or not it is moral to perform an action that can have both a good effect (here, adults seeing pictures of dead babies) and a bad effect (small children seeing pictures of dead babies) is governed in ethics by the "Principle of Double Effect"
Although the conditions of this ethical principle may sound complicated, all of us apply them frequently. A little boy cuts his hand, and his mother puts an antiseptic on the cut. This action has two effects: it causes the boy pain and it wards off infection. Although the mother may not realize it, she actually used the principle of double effect. She performed an action that was good in itself, that had two effects, one of which was bad (pain).
Though the Anti-Choice Project never intentionally shows small children pictures of abortion, it can be foreseen that our strategy will result in their viewing. Employing the criteria of the Principle of Double Effect, we have weighed the "bad effect" against the "good effect" and, since the graphic images change minds, have come to the conclusion that the lives saved from a torturous death matter more than the feelings and emotions of born children.

These people don't want the truth out about abortion. It is as simple as that. Like I said, I am willing to bet that if you checked at home, they don't put any limits on what their children watch on TV (except maybe EWTN), or pay attention to the violence level of any video games their kids plays. There may be a few exceptions. But not many. Their anger is because deep down they know abortion is wrong. they just don't want to face the truth.
