A Kansas clinic. 0.0 I think here's only one of those in the state.
@lannan you support violence?
Wow out of the 5 pro life people on this poll so far, 2 of them support violence agaist abortion clinics. Thats pretty worrying.
Well, not surprised, just disappointed.
@lannan13 - I am very surprised.
@komododragon8 - There is a omnipresent violent threat. More then you see on the news. They out there all the time.
TBR: Agreed the ADL has an article on it and many other sources have found evidence of harrassment and threats against those who work at these clinics. http://www.adl.org/combating-hate/domestic-extremism-terrorism/c/anti-abortion-violence-americas-forgotten-terrorism-1.html
It's ironic when liberals get violent there is always an excuse, but if conservatives get violent,"Oh, it's such a big deal."
Haroush: Got any examples cause from my experience violent liberal groups are treated the same as any other terrorist organization. In fact according to my link from the ADL, anti abortion terrorism (a right ring form of terrorism) is being ignored and in many cases justified by certain politicians.
@Haroush Those liberals are?

Haroush: Again most of these were not ignored, they were met with riot police and arrests.
Yeah and most of them got what they wanted out of it too.
There were huge non violent parts of these movements who may have got some of what they wanted. The violent parts were arrested and charged with whatever crimes they were committing. Very few justified or defended their behavior. On the other hand take a look at the anti abortion movement who recently had an activist recommending that killing some abortion providers would be good. http://www.desmoinesregister.com/article/20130424/NEWS/304240072/Des-Moines-man-discusses-shooting-abortion-providers
That isn't the point Komodo.. The ongoing violent protest was the main reason they got what they wanted.
Got any support for that?
along with minorities
As bad as abortion clinics are, violence won't help anyone. If we are to shut these places down, we should do so through rational argument, not aggression.
What Philocat said
Disagree if you want, but violence isn't the answer.
Educate people about sex and give them anti-conception if you want less abortions. It's works everywhere else.
