‘Weeds’ Takes On Anti-Choice Protesters

How does the Showtime Series ‘Weeds‘ take on the issue of abortion and anit-choice protesters? Checkout the clip below, which features Alanis Morrisette guest starring as an OBGYN who, among other things, provides abortions confronting one lone protester in the parking lot of her clinic.

I love her character this season. Sadly so many clinics around the country have to deal with protesters who are far more intense than this guy, but still, I love the matter-of-fact way that she approaches him. What do you think? And have you seen other great portrayals of the issue in the media lately?
