Silent Protest: let's rub their noses in dead, rotten flesh
I posted this idea yesterday but it got lost in the blur. I keep thinking about it and I really think it's a good one.

Abortion protestors have been using big, ugly, graphic pictures of dead fetuses for decades now. Isn't it time we adopted the tactic?

Let's make one t-shirt for each dead Iraqi, showing at a large scale the most shocking, revolting images of death from the war. On inauguration day, about 200,000 of us around the country wear them over our regular clothes to work, school, etc.

This could be done by circulating image files and using iron-on sheets that are available for desktop printers. We could all participate at our own small expense.

We can make them un-avert their gaze!

2. I say, show up at abortion clinic protests with large poster sized
pictures of dead Iraqi babies and children and put their hypocrisy (sp?) in their faces

3. Yes, but I think it should be more general than that.
There are Kerry voters and pro-choice people who also need to be reminded or informed of the human scale of this war.
