I think that's part of the reason they put in that scene where Juno sees her Asian friend protesting was to give a hint that it wasn't nessacerily prolife. Because the script kind of made her sound idealistic, unrealistic, and naive- "Yr baby has fingernails!"
I love Rainn Wilson's little role in that movie so much.

yes it made her sound idealistic and naive... the asian girl's innocence leads the viewer to sympathize with her and her views... What if that character was some crazy evangelical? or even a man? the use of the timid young female character allowed for pro life views to be gently slipped into the film (although i feel that it wasn't so gentle) in way so as not to offend but to softly solfty push a pro life agenda to a teenage audience.
