Both interviewees watch Live Action\u2019s videos from the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.abortionprocedures.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Abortion Procedures<\/a> series. In the videos, Dr. Anthony Levatino, who committed over 1,200 abortions before becoming pro-life, describes one of the most common abortion procedures while the video shows a scientifically accurate animation. And within just minutes, both people changed their mind.<\/p>\n<p><strong>WATCH:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><center><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/tgGlulhM4Ps\" width=\"640\" height=\"355\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/center>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><center><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/aikUhpDzMRk\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/center>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The woman described what she saw as \u201cheart-wrenching.\u201d Reflecting on it, she said, \u201cI mean, that\u2019s something I would never want anyone to go through, right?

He pointed out that if anyone committed the destructive violence against a dog that occurs against a baby in an abortion, he would be arrested for animal cruelty.
