Don't like the protests? Then gee, maybe you shouldn't try to force personal decisions on a population of people who don't agree with them.
I know this sounds like a dumb question, but honestly. What did they think would happen?
And if you think this is bad, wait till the Supreme Court tries to reverse gay marriage, and ban birth control and interracial marriage. You ain't seen nothing yet.
I'm not condoning the violence of these protests, but people are mad and when they're mad, they do things to show it. Didn't the Boston Tea Party start with destruction of property and end with a revolution?
I, for one, always check to see the skin color of the people who are lobbing fireworks at me and threatening violence.
If they're black? Open season.
If they're white? I curl up into a little ball and just sit there and take it.
What an absolute pile of excrement.
Okay, then I'm sure there is some other totally unrelated reason Jan. 6 was frightened cops and kid gloves, and the "night of violence" with firecrackers was beaten down with tear gas. So whatever reason that was, you can sleep with a happy smile on your face knowing at least these protesters were gassed. Enjoy.
Not to mention that today's violence is almost exclusively perpetrated by Left Wing activists.
Oh, only 4 fire-settings to abortion clinics a year? Oh, well, in that case...carry on...not violent at all. (Plus, psst, you forgot to add in the bombings.)
I mean, if pro birthers set fire to FIVE clinics a year, then that might be something different.
I'm sorry your brain feels numb. Yes, I "have" Google. Nobody has identified who is behind this faction. The name seems to be based on a former group of people who helped women obtain abortions before Roe v. Wade. So, people in their 80s, 90s or dead by now and obviously not the Revenge group, unless they are incredibly spry and have a great throwing arm.
But who are they really and what is the agenda? Nobody knows.
Actually things are not as crazy as I thought it be. It was fairly calm. Wouldn't the worst of the protest, the most violent part, be done closer to the decision date vs further out?

But, they are doing it in cities where abortion is legal. What are they protesting? Oh, are they doing this to FORCE red states to allow it? Isn't that what you are against per your fist sentence?
But those are left states that allow abortion and won't be affected ....
This is like BLM burning down their own neighborhoods.....
Yes, but that means they can't control others.
Their favorite thing to do.
