A gym had erected a christmas tree in the lobby which was decorated with plastic fetuses. Three women quit their gym memberships because they were offended by the tree. I support their decision. It's just disgusting to decorate your tree with fake fetuses. Use real ones like they did in the old days!

I definitely think there are better ways of conducting a fund raiser for a pro-life group then a tree decorated with fetuses.
I wouldn't be offended by a tree decorated with pro-life button or ornaments, or some other pro-life fundraiser, but the fetus thing is way outside of acceptable, in my opinion.
Of course, my opinion may be swayed --- as many women's would be - by having suffered an early term miscarriage. Fetal images do not go over well with me, I'm afraid. I would have been right there at the desk resigning as well.

Next year, I hope a pro-choice group decorates the tree with coathangers. It's about the best I can think of, pro-choicers don't really have anything as gory as foetuses to use.

Those tend to smell bad after a few days. Besides, those could be better used by being thrown at women who get abortions.
Note: if you took that seriously, you've got problems

Why be so grumpy about it? Just grab one and snack on it as you pass by like a normal person.

"You don't see many of these white anti-abortion women volunteering to have black fetuses transplanted into their uteruses do you? No. You don't see them adopting a whole lot of crack babies do you? No. That might be something Christ would do." -George Carlin
Maybe if these uptight pricks who think that abortion is murder spent HALF that time, money and energy helping single low-income mothers support their children and finding homes for the hundreds of thousands of unadopted chidren in this country, then maybe there wouldn't be quite so many freakin' abortions!!! :mad:

Don't you become superman if you suck the flesh from dead foetuses? Much like Christopher Reeve did? NOTE: Reference to South Park pre-Reeve death. They made a good one with him too, so don't kill me

That's fucking insane. How do they expect people not to read into it when they "decorate" (desecrate?) a tree like that?

Well, we love our fetuses. Some love them and want to protect them, others love them pickled or hickory smoked.
Overreacting women. Where's their christmas spirit? Mine's in Iraq. Why? I have no idea.

I beat my Christmas spirit to death with a cricket bat, and sold the carcass to pet food manufacturers.

The tree's "decoration" wasn't supposed to be about abortion, according to the article.

What's so sickening about abortion? It's an ordinary medical proceedure.
