Thanks for posting this. It's amazing that even as someone who was for abortion rights before I was a radical, I've never seen these images whereas I have often seen the anti-abortion propaganda images from counter-protesters at rallies, a clinic defense rallies, in public spaces where anti-abortionists are set up with their signs, and on the internet.

I've often fantasized about protesting these people with my own huge banners of bloody and gross images from appendix removals and other common medical procedures. What the person did with their website is much more on-point and valuable though.

Also, where the hell do these people come from with the exact same signs? For a while I literally thought it was the same group of people I kept seeing because I've seen anti-abortion protesters in San Francisco, LA, NYC, and DC and they all have the same exact over-sized poster.

If you look at the comments below in that article, not even those pictures won't keep the Anti-Choicers coming which is highly disturbing.

They are a really tight knit network, don't get fooled by the noise they make, the dedicated activist core number only a few hundred worldwide which makes their "we are non-violent" we have no contact with the bombers/assassins so obviously false.
A few years ago they had a whole international conference here in the Netherlands.
The dutch anti-choice org "schreeuw om leven" also uses the exact same pictures and "this is the real holocaust" pamflets

The dutch anti-choice org "schreeuw om leven" also uses the exact same pictures and "this is the real holocaust" pamfletsThat argument is how you can expose their terrorism:

"This is worse than the Holocaust?"
"Yes"
"So you support killing abortion doctors and bombing clinics."
"No!"
"I mean I'd support people shooting NAZIs to escape the Warsaw Ghetto or planting bombs to sabotage the tracks to the concentration camps. So you don't think that people should have fought against NAZIs?"
"Um... "
