In your opinion, would you say that this Billboard is effective?

Your thoughts are appreciated.

In don't know how effective it will be.

It might peak some curiosity.

I think instead of 'PP lies!'

It might had been better to use different wording.

 

[Proeliator]

I think that may exactly be the point. Just enough to get you intrigued and go look at the site. Those with closed minds just wouldn't care anyway.

I'd say no. The website address is not easy to remember at all. Beyond that, it could work.

Using words like that automatically put people on the defensive that are pro PP.

The first thought that pops into a person's mind is religious nuts again.

That is my point.

I think it could had been done better & still get the point across.

It would be like me riding along in my car & seeing a BB that says the RCC lies.

It's not going to make me real receptive to the message behind the BB.

It would be a good idea to have the full name of the organization sponsoring the billboard.

Ineffective; its got a tabloid feel to it. Had they chosen different words, I think it could be more effective.

You said it better than I did.

As Filia Mariae said, it has too much of a tabloid feel to it. Perhaps if it were reworded it would be better.

I like the adds with a baby on it and it says things like, "Did you know I had a heart beat X amount of time after conception?" Or "Did you know I had finger prints X weeks after conception?" I think they are good because they give people some information that makes you stop and think without putting them on the defensive. It's simple and to the point. And a lot of people don't realize how early babies are developed. I'm totally pro-life but I didn't realize how early things happened before seeing the boards. =)

I think it's too blunt to the point and would irritate people or offend them more than anything. they would be on their guard and defensive... poor way to go against bad things..

if they were more tactful with a little charity thrown in, it might be better received.

 

[holyorders]

It has too much empty white-space as well- it makes it easy to overlook.

 

[hsilgne]

I'd say no. The website address is not easy to remember at all. Beyond that, it could work.

I agree. Something like "JennifersTestimony.COM" would be easier to remember.

Perhaps "Learn the truth about Planned Parenthood" would be an easier message to swallow, and yet remain bold enough to get your attention.

I would be 2 seconds past the billboard and have forgotten the link to look at anyway... so in that regard it would not be effective.

But it would likely be effective for somewhere for the birds to perch on...

I saw another one outside New London, Connecticut last night. Three kids, a mom and a quote: "Thank you mommie for letting us live".

I didn't notice it. A relative was driving. She spotted it a long ways off as we made a turn away from it and said..."That's horrible".

I didn't say anything. Sigh.

I would have no idea what that was even about. The address is not easy to remember. And it looks like a cheap story.
