If kids see boobs they'll go have sex. And that's bad.

Last I checked, the ad was about abortion and showing images of aborted fetuses from procedures generally not used in abortion anymore, and not murder.

Y'know. Since abortion isn't murder and all.

I agreed with the Tim Tebow commercial, many didn't---I don't agree with this one. Both are free speech though.

I think it would be good to show an abortion on TV but parents need to know first so they can get the kids out of the room.

I don't know...a tube being inserted into a vagina doesn't sound too interesting. But if you really want to see something going into a vagina just watch porn.

The commercials will continue to be entertaining, and suggestive, and just enough to keep the populace fat, dumb and happy, sorta thing.

Probably like watching someone have their period....there isn't much to "see" with most abortions.
