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.


IIRC, the Spanish Republicans started the trend of using Molotovs against tanks during the civil war. The Finns simply came up with the name.

So it's really a commie/anarchie invention :p

The irony. To think after all these years of pro-life fanatics slaughtering abortion patients and doctors around the world that somebody might decide to reciprocate in similar fashion. I guess it's the old adage of getting what's coming to you; surely you can't possibly be surprised that targeting abortion clinics with violence results in more violence? If the story is even true, of which I have my doubts, perhaps the pro-life movement might be inspired to do a better job of encouraging people not to murder abortion clinic staff?

Abortion is murder in itself. I am not surprised a pro-choice person responded back with violence. Pro-life people should focus on the culture of life.

If I would see religious fanatics protesting in front of a hospital or pharmacy trying to impede me to get healed because "its all part of the God's plan, if God didn't wanted you to get ill, you would be healthy", even I would get pissed a bit. They have the right to believe whatever they want, they have the right to protest whatever they want. They don't have the right to force me to believe what they believe, they don't have to right to ban me from doing stuff that they don't want to do. So the answer to the thread is: She threw JUST a Molotov against them? She didn't have anything better? A bazooka would have been epic, or at least a heavy rifle.

There is no actual evidence that this woman is pro-choice.

Lets not throw incendiary weapons at people please, it doesnt end well.

theres a difference between going to the hospital because you had a heart attack and going there to commit murder.

Abortion is murder. Wearing condom is murder. Using birth-pills is murder. Tolerating Islam is murder. Getting vaccinated is murder. Gay marriage is murder. Taxation is murder.

What isn't murder to you people?
