It's a baby, not a choice! Your comment was crass and shows you didn't even listen to the videos that reveal who funded this private project. How many of us would still be here if abortion was somehow retroactive to the year 1950?... or even if it were retroactive to the year 1900? What happened to "life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness?

The neighborhood turned out for this event in droves and everyone had a good time. Out of the hundreds of "good and nice" comments about the mural, yours was the only negative one (perhaps so far), and your lone opinion certainly does not speak for he community. The people like and want art. Fact! And Barbara, this is exactly the kind of art Long Beach citizens want to look at!

Wow, that is pretty scary ;-) So Christie, I guess that means it is ok with you to “abort” adults you don’t agree with? Wow, that is pretty scary ;-)

You are obviously a culture of death supporter and a hater. This mural represents a 'choice' of life over death. When a woman says 'yes' to sex, she is making a choice, if she becomes pregnant, that was a choice, so why does the baby have to suffer being pulled apart limb from limb, because a woman had no sense and didn't know about where babies come from? You must be a Marxist and an atheist. But that is ok in this country. You can have any opinion you want, just like I can, and any other woman who chooses life over murder. I think you should have been aborted! That is MY opinion. Barbara, Too bad your mother didn’t excercise her Constitutional right to abort you.

Not to mention.... it is BUTT UGLY and cartoonish! This is not not the kind of art that the citizens of Long Beach should have to look at. This kind of thing belongs on the inside walls not the outside walls. I'm not sure it is much better than tagging.

Followup necessary: Who paid for the mural, who owns the building the mural is on, and which city "officials" will be in attendance? Gag.

Beautiful. The fact that it has not been tagged on since last year is amazing and goes to show that even "hoodlums" can appreciate art, or perhaps the Good Lord Himself likes it and it's just not going to get tagged on! I like the thought of that better. Wow! Beautiful.
