[Loves Us] -- Sad but true. Keep up the good work. As more and more people see these horrible pictures, it will make them start thinking that, 'Yes, these are really babies and this is murder.'
[Loves Us Not] -- That has to be the lamest Website I've ever seen. You say you're against abortion. Well, get raped and then see how you feel you 1950-age morons. And let's see; I suppose you disagree with stem-cell research as well, right? It would figure you wouldn't support it, even though it promises to cure any degenerative disease. Congratulations, you win the ‘Most Inane Website of the Year’ award, and will be featured on http://miller.axisproductions.com.
CBR note: Killing a human being two weeks into his existence is morally indistinguishable from killing him two years later. The only real difference between these homicides is age. When age is allowed to decide rights of personhood, the very young and the very old are in very big trouble -- because the babies and the elderly consume resources instead of producing them. By the way, the 1950’s view of the unborn was rather more civilized than that of the late 20th Century but don’t bother looking at this guy’s Website, there is nothing there.
[Loves Us] -- My local TV news station did an article on your trucks on the evening news this evening. I have a message for you. Please, no matter who does what, don't give up doing what you're doing. I was dancing in my living room as I watched. The cameras, the follow cars, the letters to the local police departments---you've covered all the bases. My family not only considers what you do as exceptional, we call it magnificent!
[Loves Us Not] -- I can see walking horror every day and I don't think your stupid (yes stupid) truck idea will do anything to solve that. Your single-mindedness is not helping and the tactic smacks of Hollywood sensationalism, no wonder no one I know takes you, or your ideas, seriously. Have a good day (don't waste any time helping the ones already here) and look out while you're on our streets.
CBR note: Here is the threat of violence which characterizes so many of the messages we receive from pro-aborts. Hollywood may “sensationalize” violence but we don’t. We just report the unvarnished truth.
[Loves Us] -- I have wanted, for years, to see a campaign exactly like the one you are sponsoring. At last, at last! I have been quite choked up by this. Victory seems in view, all of a sudden.
[Loves Us Not] -- I have a lot of friends who believe that society needs to see horrific images because it is good for people to be desensitized. The same friends that do that like to visit your Website because they feel that your site has great images. As an example I am going to use your group. They hope that if enough people see images such as the ones depicted on the Website and by the trucks that eventually people will be so used to seeing these images that getting an abortion will not be a big deal and it will actually be easier.
CBR note: This writer is confusing a strong stomach with a dead conscience. Repeated exposures to the carnage of gun shot wounds may make it is easier for a trauma surgeon to control his emotions in the emergency room; but if he has a functioning conscience, the sight of gore is unlikely to persuade him that gun shot wounds are a good thing. People with a severely diminished sense of right and wrong are beyond any persuasion short of spiritual rebirth. They may not be deterred by pictures of aborted babies but few will say “That looks cool, where can I get one.”
[Loves Us] -- I am listening to you on John and Ken show and God bless you for getting this out into the public. It is radical, however no more radical than PETA throwing blood on people wearing fur. Where is that outrage?
[Loves Us Not] -- I don’t believe in abortion, but I do agree with what one caller calls your display. It is a form of pornography. I don’t wish to see it -- period. I believe that what you are doing is very clever and I wish that there were a better way for you people to get your desperate message out. But this will traumatize children. At the present time there are no laws governing your displays on public transportation corridors. But give it time! I would be the first one in line to sign my name towards a class action lawsuit against this kind of abuse of personal liberties. Do you really think that these disgusting photos are going to change peoples’ minds significantly? They are not. If you put planes and such into the air [to tow aerial banners displaying aborted baby photos] be prepared for war, because there are a lot of people that will take serious efforts to shoot you down. And over sporting events! For the love of God -- stop it. You are worse than the cure.
CBR note: This person is so committed to complacency that he/she will give up his/her First Amendment rights to maintain it. The abortionists don’t seem to bother him/her as much as we do. In point of fact, America isn’t “bothered” nearly enough about abortion. As noted above, we intend to change that. And, of course, here again is the threat of violence.
[Loves Us] -- Heard you on KFI today. Great job! Congratulations and Hats off! Rushed to send you some money .... Thanks for a fantastic idea and for a very, very good job on the radio today! I found myself screaming out of my car window - Go Gregg Go! God bless you!
[Loves Us Not] -- I witnessed your gross display of aborted fetuses. Yes, it was horrible. What is just as horrible is your chosen venue. There are good ways of making a case for your point of view. Obviously, you didn't choose one. Your behavior is unforgivable. This is an outrage to me and I consider myself pro-life. What is your next step…to start killing the doctors? I see you as sick and evil people with twisted hating souls. And may God see the hatred in your hearts as well.
CBR note: Unmasking the horror of abortion makes us potential murders? Talk about a “twisted hating soul!”
[Loves Us] -- Please tell me how I may be involved in your project. I heard Gregg Cunningham on the Stand to Reason show with Greg Koukl......what a powerful and anointed voice.
[Loves Us Not] -- After my grade school grandchildren saw your shocking and tasteless photos on one of your trucks, me and my family were outraged. Not all of us were previously sympathetic to your cause but you have now made our entire family unanimous...every single family member is now utterly opposed to your organization.
CBR note: But our organization isn’t trying to win a popularity contest. We don’t care so much what people think of us as we care what they think of abortion. We are quite willing to get them angry at us if that’s what it takes to get them angry at baby killing.
[Loves Us] -- Just heard you on the radio. Go! Go! Go! BE ENCOURAGED! I thank the Lord for your opportunity on KFI. Your representative was SOOOOOO winsome. Great links too on this Website. You have your arguments DOWN! EXCELLENT!
[Loves Us Not] -- Your unwarranted display of pornographic material on the freeway this morning is contemptible at best. Terrorists like you will stop at nothing to get your message heard. Your morality is suspect, your methods reprehensible and your character non-existent, so much for your ethics! If I had been on your side, I would certainly be against your cause now. I shall urge my Congressman to have your organization declared "terrorist" so that NO financial aid can be given to your reprehensible organization by any law abiding US citizen.
CBR note: Terrorists use weapons of war to kill and destroy. Their purpose is to create a climate of fear that will produce a "desired" political outcome. We neither "kill nor destroy" but we do use weapons-grade photos that are a “terror” to those who are complicit or complacent regarding abortion. Of course, we do desire a political outcome which criminalizes abortion (for the abortionist, that is). If that makes us “terrorists,” the term should be used advisedly.
[Loves Us] -- I heard Greg [sic] on the John and Ken program on KFI and was extremely impressed with his message, his composure, his logic, and his passion. Thank God for the work you are doing! It's no surprise that the majority of callers were appalled at your campaign. I think it is brilliant because it forces people to deal with the reality that abortion is murder.
[Loves Us Not] -- Who whipped up the little hands and feet on the blob of protoplasm? What are you people thinking? You may have your point of view but there is no need to inflict your extremist and backwoods fetish on the rest of us. Those trucks? Disgusting. If I see one, I'll be sure to throw eggs at it. Embryo for embryo! Please cease the baby-smear campaign. It's too bad most people aren't quick enough to recognize BLATANTLY MODIFIED PHOTOGRAPHS and NAZI INSPIRED PROPAGANDA TACTICS. And by the way, you suck.
CBR note: If abortion is such a good idea, why do pictures of it make its defenders so angry?
[Loves Us] -- I heard your wonderful representative on KFI today and I just want to say, "Bravo" for his eloquent and dignified presentation on the radio.
[Loves Us Not] -- While on the freeway here in San Diego I came across two of your ‘illustrated’ trucks. The pictures were so disgusting that traffic refused to pass them, staying well behind and clogging lanes ... causing potential traffic accidents. Since you seem compelled to shock people and misrepresent the abortion debate, you then won't mind if I tell you that you're simply … [expletive] nuts! Keep this …[expletive] off my roads. If you think you're gaining support, your …[expletive] stupid as well as nuts. Nothing like dumb-[expletive] moral crusaders like yourselves to make me affirm my opposition to the kind of archaic, fundamentalist, jingoistic crap you people portray as ‘sensible reasoning.’ You're doing a great job of making converts to the other side.
CBR note: We have now been operating our trucks for fully six months and have not caused a single accident. Aborted baby pictures don’t “misrepresent” the abortion debate, they force it and insure that it is well informed. As to our sanity, we actually question it from time to time ourselves. We don’t, however, intend to “convert” people such at this one. We are aiming this kind of project at people who still possess a civilized sense of good and evil. Most people do, but not everyone. The San Francisco Daily Review, December 4, 2001, carried an opinion editorial concerning our truck project. Columnist Rory Laverty writes that our trucks obscure the ‘painful stories’ of women who abort. He quotes a young mother who ‘terminates:’
‘The strange thing was that even though I knew I was going to kill the baby, I stopped smoking and taking medication, because I didn't want to hurt it,’ she said.
* * *
‘I just felt empty, literally and figuratively,’ she said. ‘I think of it all the time. People say it gets better -- but the only thing that has improved is the ability to numb myself. The hollow feeling doesn't go away, and it probably never will.’
