Calling abortion pics "porn"-- another distortion of the language

Once again, abortion supporters are twisting the language, redefining words to suit their own purposes.

The Pro-Life Action League blog has pointed to a MSM blog that calls Missy Smith's graphic political ads "abortion porn".

It's not very respectful of sex workers to compare what they do to abortion. Don't all women (and men) have a right to make a living with their bodies and exercise their autonomy? Why disparage their supposedly legitimate commercial product by associating it with abortion?

I suppose it might have to do with pornography and abortion both being obscene. Well, there I would agree.

Perhaps pro-choicers imagine that pro-lifers get off on these pics, since we're fetus fetishists and all. Like respecting the unborn is a bad thing. There's no unprovable malicious intent they won't attribute to pro-lifers to make their point, in the absence of facts and logic for their case. They can't argue the pictures, so they have to make the story about something else.

And I love how he underscored that most abortions are in the first trimester. As if there were no pictures of aborted first trimester fetuses.

Keep trying to deflect the issue, bud. It'll only work for so long. Eventually, somebody will have to comment on what's being shown.
