Pro-Lifers are Hijacking the Superbowl Commercials

RE: Pro-Lifers are Hijacking the Superbowl Commercials
What I don't understand is that after 30 years of anti-abortion protestors displaying grisly images of aborted fetuses, why they don't understand that this tactic just doesn't work? I mean, if I see someone holding up a sign with a picture of a bloody fetus on it, it makes me want to look away and ignore their message, not to mention make me think they're a crazy nutjob for displaying such a picture.

Of course it goes without saying that many of these fetus pictures are faked. Most abortions consist of removing nothing more than a clump of cells that don't even look human.

Quote:And a great big WTF goes out to the stations airing this type of ad during what's supposed to be family-friendly programming.

If you read the article, Terry is apparently exploiting a loophole in the law which states that stations can't refuse to run ads for political candidates with 45 days of an election, and apparently primaries count as elections. If anything, though, these ads run during the Superbowl will make people wonder what's wrong with him running such a graphic and gruesome ad when children might be watching.
Christian apologetics is the art of rolling a dog turd in sugar and selling it as a donut.
