With a tip of the bonnet to my Tweep @dmf71, comes this. (I added the links.)
Anti-abortion activist Lila Rose said at last weekend's Value Voters Summit that as long as abortions are legal, they should be "done in the public square," thus disgusting people into action.
Words fail.
UPPITY WOMAN DATE: While words fail me, they sure don't fail JJ.

Antonia Zerbisias has been a Star columnist since 1989 but has been telling people what she thinks ever since she could open her mouth. Her career ambition as an opinionator dates back to Grade 9 when a cartoon commentary on a teacher resulted in her suspension from high school. The principal sent her home with a note calling her "rude, obstreperous and bold." Her parents were neither amused, nor surprised. Once she was punished for being that way. Now she makes it pay. And, because she can take it as well as dish it out, she wants to hear what you have to say. Fire away!
Surprised? Not any more. Not when you consider the mass hysteria, lies and gunshot-toting americans that particpate in the rallies against public health care. I'm not sure there's a line the right won't cross. Why stop now?

And, I would wager, that publicly shaming women - not men, mind you - in such a medieval manner would certainly discourage anyone from seeking this medical intervention.

"... maybe then we might hear angels singing as we ponder the glory of conception ..."
Does that mean that she's never felt the earth move? Puir wee thing -- can't have orgasms until she's sure she's humiliating others and making them suffer.
She's inching on to public-menace territory. Someone should hand her a copy of the Bill of Rights. Threaten someone else's security of conscience and of person, kiddo, and you're the criminal.

Abortion is a surgical procedure - and like all surgical procedures (and in fact most things involving the human body), it's messier than most of us would like to really think about.
What she's talking about is nothing more than repeating the shaming that we already inflict upon women who get pregnant ... adding to it a lovely little dollop of public mind-rape for spice of course.
... and I thought Clockwork Orange was just a really weird movie *sheesh*!

I wish HTML tage worked. I want to fix this for her, she made a mistake... so I will just re-write it below.
"[After informed Sex Education is freely given to all, along with access to all forms of birth control, yes including Abortion]... maybe then [we could be truly happy] as we ponder the glory of [intentional, desired and healthy] conception ..."
There. Fixed.
