Barbara Radford of the National Abortion Federation gave guidelines to pro-choicers on how to counter the graphic drawings of partial-birth abortions shown by pro-lifers who were protesting in support of the partial-birth abortion ban. She says:
1. Don’t apologize; this is a legal procedure
2. No abortion method is acceptable to abortion opponents
3. The language and graphics in the ad are disturbing to some readers.
Much of the negative reaction, however, is the same reaction that might be invoked if one were to listen to a surgeon describing step-by-step almost any other procedure involving blood, human tissue, etc.
