It's unfortunate as well. But what do you expect me to do about it? Go to an abortion clinic and stand in the door way to block pregnant women from entering?

This girl is a victim in some ways. She's just been indoctrinated. She wasn't yelling and screaming, which is a nice change. This is just the result of years of indoctrination. I don't think this should mark her for life. Hopefully she learns and treats political opposition as fellow human beings. The "I can't believe you protect those people" is straight from the progressive textbook. Agree with me or you're sub-human.

You can have disagreements with others without dehumanizing them.

Yep. If someone disagrees with you, apparently you can steal from them and the cops should let you. That's her mindset.

Yes, I did.

But i learned that jumping to conclusion from a video posted on the internet is not always productive. Just ask Hilary.

We saw what the maker of the video wanted to present. That may or may not be the whole story.

All I saw was her taking the sign and trying to dispose of it while talking with a cop. It's hard to believe any college student could be that clueless. but I'm not into mind reading.

It's a lot of whining. She should have just stood her ground and admitted she wanted to silence the protester and she stole the sign to dispose of it. She said she just "moved" it and then tried to shame the cop for enforcing the law. She's an entitled, lying b**ch. Lefties like her are such cowards.

Perhaps they are waiting for some Jim Comey lookalike to pop up and tell everybody that, yes, she committed a crime, but no prosecutor would ever charge her for it, therefore she shouldn't be held to account and can go free?

Or is she used to hearing from elected Congressmen that it's OK to harass people in restaurants if you disagree with them, protest noisily outside their homes, hassle them where they work, and that's OK?

I wonder if any of her college professors ever told her that if she stole things from pro-life people, she's contributing to "the greater good" or something, and that this made her a hero instead of a criminal?



Plenty of righties feel thets justifies the end. Harrassing clients entering clinics, throwing objects, even shooting or bombing.

Thanks for making that point. I understand now.

If we eliminate uncomfortable descriptions of a crime, there can be no crime.




To me it's semantics or definitions. Your definition of murder is not the same as it is to mine. And pro-.choice does not encompass only aborition. Even birth control is hotly debated in this country. I contend that pro -choice does not mean pro-abortion, it means keep your grubby mits off a woman's right to decide what she decides will happen with her own body.

Didn't this entire debate begin when God decided to have non consensual sex with an underage, teenage girl and got her pregnant?

Actually you can be moral without being religious. Sad you don’t know that.
