Oooh, I love that! :D There's a doctor in my neighborhood who practices abortions. The protesters used to harass him and his family so badly (bordering on assault) that he and his family had to stay in a hotel every weekend. The county passed a "bubble law" (they have to stay a certain distance away from the house and keep moving) but they still show up on holidays. It was bad. They'd chase the family's kids around if they left the house and shouted at them that their daddy was going to hell because he killed babies. I think one of them said that he was going to kill his own kids next. I can just imagine their faces if they were benefiting PP...

Planned Parenthood doesn't get picketed here.

However, the local lingerie/boudoir shop had to cancel their holiday party because they received threats and an organization started protesting. This is a shop that's 100% female employee owned, caters to women primarily, and is all about sensuality and romance. And they protested because the shop was objectifying women.

I swear, it's a good thing they don't know about my husband's mail order porn shop, 2 blocks down the street....

Feh. I don't like it, but I'm prolife. I kinda wonder how much good the protests did anyway, though.
