Colorado pro-choice groups say verbal attacks on Planned Parenthood incited shooter

Source: Colorado Springs Gazette

In the wake of Friday's shootings at the Planned Parenthood clinic in Colorado Springs, two groups, Progress Now Colorado and Pro Choice Colorado are holding a press conference at the State Capitol in Denver on Tuesday to demand that politicians apologize for what the groups say are "false claims" about Planned Parenthood.

Event organizers say that the shootings were a "terrorist attack" that was incited by many individuals and organizations with escalated "hate speech" against Planned Parenthood.

The event starts at 11 a.m., on the front steps of the State Capitol.

I'm staying away from all the crazy Christians. Down here in the South it is hard to avoid them but the anti-abortion wackos are even more crazy than usual. If you happen to meet one, get away as fast as you can. They seem to think they can murder anyone they get an urge to murder. Just gone off the deep end the whole lot of them.

That's why they will claim to be killing to save innocent lives when they are actually killing innocent people because the are fucking nuts.
The "pro-lifers" just provide the excuse (and lawyer fees).

If a politician is against choice, they are AGREE with the shooter! This needs to be hammered, hammered, hammered every election. Anti-choice = pro-terrorist.
