Journal #3 "A Commercial I Find Distateful"

A few months ago when South Dakota was voting on abortion laws and the changes to choices for pregnant women, there was a "right to life" advertisement. This advertisement was plastered on a truck that would randomly drive around Sioux Falls with images of torn limbs of babies along with blood and a placenta. Although I do realize that this is a possibly true image result of an abortion, I do not believe that these violent images should be paraded around on a truck. As I have mentioned before, I do not appreciate my children exposed to violence and these images were violent. I was raised in a very conservative republican home, however, I have tried to raise my children to appreciate the rights of independent choices that we can make as a voter in this country. I want my children to be able to make decisions when they are older based on facts and not on grossly advertised images that they remember seeing on their way to dinner with their family.
