She was throwing a lethal weapon at praying pro-lifers. Unless she is a psychotic, I cannot associate her with anything other than pro-choice.

What makes you think she was throwing it at the protesters and not the building they were protesting in front of? Shit, how do you know she's not "psychotic" or whatever and just lobbed it at the first crowd of people she saw without knowing who they were or what they were doing?

I think the most we can conclude about her is that she may not understand how fire works.

How do we know it wasn't planned by pro-lifers as a media stunt, either? It's all just conjecture, really. Might have even been a personal attack.

How do we know this wasn't the first shot of the North Korean invasion of America?

What so you should be able to kill those who go against your views? Even a liberal would know better than that. this comment either pertains to Facists or socialist beliefs. Thinking that the government (or just you) should be able to suppress others beliefs.

Also that she may not understand that tape exists since she tried and failed to cover up her license plate with cardboard... which, tbh, seems pretty hard to fail at with some duct tape.

Was the woman who tried to set a group of protesters on fire justified?

That's ridiculous. I can legitimately understand people bombing abortion clinics. If you believe in your bones that countless innocent people are being killed by a group of people inside a building then getting rid of those people/that building by any means neessary seems to be the only morally justifiable course of action. There's really no reason at all for this.

Despite the countless abortion clinic bombings since Roe v. Wade.

The irony of a conservative talking about killing being wrong.

Even a liberal would know better than that.


Actually, liberal politicians aren't much better than conservatives in regards to war.

this comment either pertains to Fa[s]cists or socialist beliefs.


Fascism yes, socialism depends. "Socialist" is a very vague term.

Thinking that the government (or just you) should be able to suppress others beliefs.


Again, a conservative talking about suppressing others being wrong is laughable.

If a real fascist party ever actually rose up in America, such actions would be justified. Until then, I don't think street warfare or antifascist action is necessary.

It's not like she was in some country with terrible abortion laws. And even then it'd be ridiculous to attack the people rather than the politicians. Speaking of them, if you're going to attack some of them, take an opportunity and go straight to a communist revolution. Then don't worry about patriarchy anymore.



Not saying that I agree or disagree with you, but where exactly is that right mentioned in a law book or the US constitution?
A lie doesn't become truth, wrong doesn't become right, and evil doesn't become good just because it's accepted by a majority.

Ah. I'd associated the name with Vyacheslav Molotov, but I didn't realise it was a Finnish slur against the man. I thought it was some kind of homage.

At some point I'd gotten it into my head that they'd originated with the famously poorly equipped Soviets, but the real story of the name is much better. Gotta love people that can keep their sense of humour while getting bombed delicious bread delivered from the generous Soviet Union.
