That doesn’t even make sense...please just stop. BTW, praying does not equal protesting just so you know.

Praying at home isn't a protest, praying in front of the clinic is a protest.

You can play dumb if you want.

I think people are taking exception to you saying she was angry because she was protesting. She didn't act angry. She behaved rather calmly, given the verbal assault.

You don't have to be angry to protest - you just have to believe in a cause.

You are projecting.

MPowering said it best. You don’t have to be angry to protest - you just have to believe in a cause.

Some people are saddened by abortion and believe they are giving voice to the voiceless. This country embraces freedom of expression.

Even a spokesmouth for the PP clinic in question released a statement that, though women shouldn't be shamed or harassed for accessing their services, they don't condone Sim's "approach."

the actual definition of anger/angry is


having a strong feeling of or showing annoyance, displeasure, or hostility


you dont not have to be belligerent to be angry

the very act of showing up there is anger.

You absolutely have to be angry to protest. Again, google the definition of the word.

being poised, does not mean you arent angry, it means you show emotions differently.

Also, i dont care if you define it as projection. I stopped apolo

Also, i dont care if you define it as projection. I stopped apologizing to religious people along time ago.

I have told the story of my sister, her pregnancy, health problems and so on before, she chose to carry my nephew to term, and he lived 6 months. If my sister had chose to have an abortion, and those women tried to play the morality card while I was there, id be in jail after curb stomping them.

I make no apologies. You are indeed a horrible person if you try to make one of the hardest decisions a person ever had to make, even harder.

Also he does bring up a good point about the catholic church scandal and the clergy. Why no protesting of that?
Sims may look good on paper to some but there's no guarantee he doesn't have issues; exhibit A is the video of an unhinged Sims verbally abusing an ''old white lady'' and requesting a ''dox-ing'' on teenage girls. Sims comes across unhinged in this video; what was he thinking about posting this.

Besides having personal issues, his judgment should be questioned as well.

There you go. As I said earlier, you are projecting your own anger.
