The Good Men Project has a great piece by Aaron Gouveia where he writes about his experience confronting anti-abortion activists and catching the confrontation on video.
He and his 16-weeks-pregnant wife went to a women's clinic in Brookline, Mass. for an abortion after discovering that their baby had a congenital deformity with no chance for survival.
