This ad is causing many a leftist to stroke out:
CBS:
If the idea of advertising is to get your attention, the billboard doesn't disappoint. It's the combination of the girl and those words. East Flatbush's Daisy Frith's initial reaction was typical.
"WHAT?" she said.
The billboard is part of a national campaign sponsored by the anti-abortion group "Life Always" and hangs about a half-mile from a Planned Parenthood facility on Bleecker Street.
The Texas-based group claims Planned Parenthood targets minority neighborhoods and that abortions among African-American women are three times that of the rest of the population.
"And I'm sure black women are going to respond, in large part, because they have only heard one side of the argumentation. They only see it from Planned Parenthood's position of a woman's right to choose, meaning that the only choice that a woman has is to abort the baby. That's not the only choice!" said Pastor Stephen Broden from the anti-abortion group LifeAlways.
Pastor Broden said his group bought the billboard to get exactly this kind of debate going.
"That kind of billboard isn't going to help you make an educated choice. It's a little, emotionally planted," said Taffeta Wood of Park Slope.
"Why in the world are they doing that in SoHo? If we had put it in Harlem, I guarantee you that we would have been ignored," Broden said.
They have not been ignored.
Truth can't be ignored for long and this ad is gob-smacking full of truth.

I'm amazed at the lack of comments. The truth really does hurt. Do I sense some conviction here. Perhaps they all laid down their stones and walked away.

NYC thugs intimidate LAMAR into removing beautiful pro-life billboard. Some fat friggin CHOICE. More proof positive that the abortion lobby is NOT interested in freedom or choice. Eugenics is, was and will always be the core of the abortion movement and racist to the very core.
So called, "Planned Parenthood" and the so called "Mexico City Policy" are no more than fancy names for state sponsored, race targeted genocide against people of color.
The billboard message is 100% accurate, exposing black genocide in the 21st Century and the best the pro-aborts can offer is CENSORSHIP and intimidation in response.
Thankfully, the image has been captured for all time and will reverberate around the web forever. More importantly it has captured the hearts of the people and shed light on the dark shadows of the reality of abortion. Censorship will not stand.
The little girl's mother signed away control over her daughter's likeness. (She is in violation of her contractual release) "Stock" photographers give away their services in exchange for the right to use the image in the future for whatever purpose they CHOOSE. Why is it that pro-aborts only preach FREEDOM OF CHOICE for themselves? Very revealing. Evil is as evil does.
The sign is down in SOHO but the shame and stain of the reality of abortion's bloody legacy remains.
Try to silence the truth all you want, the fact remains that every expunged or censored word will eventually resound from mountaintop to mountaintop. I for one will do my part and distribute the image of truth for as long as I live.
Nice attempt at fascist censorship Christine Quinn et al. Life testifies against you.
Abortion is the cruelest of injustices.

What are the lefties going to say? The facts are that the founders of planned parenthood were big on eugenics and explicitly wanted to limit reproduction in the black community.
I suppose like most lefties they could just deny it, but then how are they going to argue that killing black babies in a 3:1 ration to white babies is a good thing?
The left can claim anything they want about abortion but they cannot escape that it is implemented in a despicably racist way and they have supported it for decades while they exterminated black children.

Yes, kind of like a silent Rwanda. A dark family secret that can never be brought into the light.

It's provocative, though I'm not sure how the African-American community reacts to it.

Boy, Ms. Wood really did nail it. It is unfortunate that the buyers of this billboard had to resort to emotion that way.
After all, their opposition on the left has never used anything other than the cleanest, finely-honed, incisive, scalpel-like dispassionate logic in making their points.
Much as they are doing in Wisconsin as we speak.

I guess that would make Planned Parenthood racist. No wonder the democrats fund them.

To be very clear, yes, the democrats (neo-Marxists) pass the legislation funding the race control policies of so called, "Planned Parenthood", but we must take responsibility since it is OUR tax dollars they are using to fund PP and The demonic "Mexico City Policy" (Global abortion initiative).
If you have not ever contacted your so called, "representative" this may be a good reason to do so. Thank them if they are anti-abortion and hold them accountable if they are not. A good simple message is I VOTE PRO-LIFE and support pro-life candidates with my $. The $ always speaks clearest to politicians.
If you are active, thank you and encourage others to get involved. We are ultimately to blame if we remain passive.

Neither am I. But in every national survey on issues since the early '80s, blacks have been more anti-abortion than whites or the general public.
Even Jesse Jackson used to oppose abortion before he decided he would rather hang out with the cool kids and get money from the rich cool kids.

If it's meant to discomfit white liberals, it's certainly doing that. Though honetsly, it doesn't sway me, personally, one way or the other.
