For the past 2 days, an anti-abortion group has set up shop in front of my Library on campus and erected massive banners that show aborted children and frankly disgusting images. Sign were also put up saying "warning: pictures of genocide". The pictures are so big though, they can't be avoided. They are also almost in front of the library so seeing them is going to happen.
Frankly I am upset, how disrespectful it is to everyone else as the post these massive banners and harass kids about how abortion is evil. Then you have other college kids who want to antagonize them by handing out condoms to people.
In the end the entire thing is stupid and a cluster-blam- as all these idiots fight together and I have been forced to walk past it several times a day while I do work in the lab.
Should people really be allowed to post these NSFW banners (like 15 feet tall)? The pictures were very graphic and would make you want to barf (hence why I will not post any).

Do you go to UCF?! I saw the same thing next to the reflection pond right?! Bro...

Edited by RIP delta: 2/15/2013 12:11:28 AMThe main irritant is that they call it 'genocide' recklessly, y'know unless they're implying its to keep the blacks down
-
It is sad that they need to guilt people into being anti-abortion.
-
Great idea... Sweep the reality of abortion under the rug. However, we should talk about slavery as much as possible, the holocaust, murder, -blam!-. on and on... NO, but not abortion.
-
I went to tour a school witha friend in the fall, and all around the main building there were pictures of the bodies of aborted babies. I dont care whether you're pro life or choice, that's nasty and doesnt need to be on public display. They were nasty. Like little gooey disembodies arms and feet.
-
Anti-abortion advocates would be saying the exact same thing if pro-abortion people went out and did something similar. 1st amendment. Your argument is invalid.

And this is why when I was in college I ALWAYS carried around a pair of sunglasses and my studio headphones. Noise Cancelling headphones FTMFW

They could be worse. Protesting a soldiers funeral, in my opinion, should allow anyone to beat your ass.
-
We go to mars and find bacteria and call it life, a sperm uniting with an egg isnt life..... logic
-
In my experience any problem caused by one banner can be solved by another. Make a GIGANTIC banner with a trollface on it and place it in front of them. Then you are protesting their protest and they can do nothing to stop you without looking like hypocrites.

There's a church near where I go to college, and they put up crosses to symbolize how many children are "killed" by abortion. The display is directly across the street from an elementary school. I don't really think that's appropriate (if it was a pro-choice display I'd feel the same way), but it's their right to have it.

Edited by jetmann113: 2/15/2013 2:40:31 AMI am against abortion and I agree it is bad. This isn't the only way to tell people abortion is bad.

If I were you, I'd -blam!-ing box the head of 'em. Wouldn't happen here in Ireland, I'll tell ya that much, just -blam!-ing beat the shite out of them and burn their -blam!-ing posters.
-
Just mute them, that's what I do.
-
Ist it against the law to have protests on school property?
-
Just tell the administration that the way they've chosen to conduct their protest (at a university for some reason)is not conducive to a proper scholarly environment.
-
Here's a question (based off appearance that you support abortion, I am going to assume that you are a liberal): So if you are a liberal, then why are you afraid of the freedom of speech? It is quite a contradiction if you ask me...
-
Ken, what state are you in?
-
Go preform an abortion in front of them or say that your GF just had an abortion and you both are about to go party.
-
I'd walk up to them with a baby doll and start punching it just for the lulz.
-
are we those guys still discussing abortion? cmon it's 2013
-
Tell them that if Adam Lanza's Mother had an abortion all those children he murdered would still be alive. Now it looks like they're supporting a guy who murdered 20 children.
-
You should complain to the college higher-ups, something about how it interferes with your learning and such, that might make the college reconsider letting up-starts us a public campus for their political messages.
-
Why were they protesting abortion at a college library?
-
Ah, so they're taking the typical "SCARE THEM TO JOIN US" route by showing them the worst of the worst pictures of abortion and say "MWEH WE'RE RIGHT JUST LOOK AT THESE PICTURES"
