During the noon hour on Monday right to lifers put up twenty by ten ft. color pictures of mutilated and aborted fetuses along Central to convince students and faculty on UNM’s main campus that abortion is wrong. The protestors, who were mostly teenage girls, got a surprise, however, when ten adamant fetuses bearing their own placards descended on them.
“We fetuses don’t like it when people saying they advocate for the rights of the unborn hang out these disgusting images that so dishonor us. Several people here have lost their cookies while returning from lunch. How would you like it if someone put up a huge poster of you covered with slime and blood with your guts hanging out? We feel used,” said a fetus spokesperson who wished to maintain anonymity.
The fetuses haven’t taken a position on the late abortion issue that may be voted on by Albuquerque citizens. “We’re not partisan,” said the spokesperson, “Some of us are liberals and some are conservatives. We just want to defend our dignity and not be used for someone’s cheap political pandering,” said the spokesfetus. The members of Fetuses United were headed to UNM’s duck pond to hold a vigil that afternoon and to collect signatures for a “dignity petition” they were planning to circulate.
