LETTER: Graphic images do the job they're supposed to do

To the editor: Congratulations to the Canadian Centre for Bio-Ethical Reform. They've done their homework and know that it was graphic imaging that turned the tide of public opinion to challenge social injustices in history.

To the editor:

Congratulations to the Canadian Centre for Bio-Ethical Reform. They've done their homework and know that it was graphic imaging that turned the tide of public opinion to challenge social injustices in history.

We watch graphic imagery revealing the horrors of the holocaust; Wilberforce used it to ignite the people to face the brutality of the slavetrade in Britain; the beaten body of a 14-year-old African-American boy was Rosa Parks's incentive to not give up her bus seat to a white man; the Canadian Seal Hunt in 1969 used that method. It works.

The unborn are small, living, human beings who need our protection and our voices. Would we kill a toddler for the same reasons that the unborn are being killed?

Gregg Cunningham says,"If something is so horrifying we can't stand to look at it, perhaps we shouldn't be tolerating it."

Yes, the pictures themselves are offensive because injustice is offensive. And our tax dollars are paying for it. Sadly there are two victims of abortion - the baby and the woman. These pictures have helped woman realize what they have really done and led many to seek emotional and spiritual healing and help to bring closure to their guilt and grief.

I've heard that a child saw the pictures and asked, "Daddy,who killed the baby?" Meanwhile an adult was dumping chocolate milk on women. Who really got the message?
