Banners featuring graphic images of fetuses will fly over Indianapolis Oct. 22 and 23 as part of a campaign by Created Equal. The anti-abortion group characterizes itself as "young activists seeking to end the greatest human rights injustice of our time."

"Killing preborn babies is nothing less than age-based discrimination of the worst kind," the organization said in a release. "Our goal is to restore the true meaning of equality to include equal protection between the born and the preborn."
