I mean, Garth George + abortion should = fire and brimstone rant. No surprise Garth George is anti-choice right? So I was expecting some hilarious bang for my fundamentalist buck.<br /><br />Main comments: 1) creepy use (by Ron Patterson) of the word 'consumer' in relation to women seeking abortions. I mean, it's still only de rigeur to eat the placenta, not aborted foetuses, right? And 2) the ruling that women should be informed of their right to view the scan gets transmogrified by Garthy to become 'inviting' women to see scans, which sounds a lot more like there's the accompanying inducement of a lollipop or similar for the good little murderers who accept the invite.Gwanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13127784431543135980noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9139464357237074361.post-34607126813433796872009-05-07T17:36:00.000+12:002009-05-07T17:36:00.000+12:00"the abortion equivalent of those gruesome warning...<I>"the abortion equivalent of those gruesome warning pictures on cigarette packets.</I>That's GOLD. <br /><br />I thought about mocking one up ("Abortion Causes Murdered Babies" or something) along with a picture, and photoshopping it to the side of a hospital and sharing the picture with everyone here but... have you <B>seen</B> what an abortion looks like???
