Where's the outrage?

Various media outlets and blogs, and people in general, have expressed outrage over the puppy-throwing incident in Iraq and caught in video. Perhaps also because a marine is the "perp".

While it is cruel to do this to a puppy, how come there is no such outrage when thousands of babies are aborted daily in even the most civilized of nations (not that Iraq isn't civilized, it is just that with war going on in many places there, it is much less civilized than, say, the US)? To say nothing of the thousands of suffering pre- and post-abort mothers. Because abortion is such a common thing? Hardly newsworthy?

On a different take on pro-life feminism, etc., here's "hisman" as quoted by Jill in his piece entitled The New Underground Women's Movement.
