"Pro-lifer Seriously Injured: Clinic Receptionist Shouts: “He got what he deserved!”*snicker* Ahem. Bad receptionist! Bad! So what brought this on, anyway?
"When veteran pro-lifer Ed Snell was counseling women entering the Hillcrest Abortion Clinic in Harrisburg, Penn. from atop his car, he was thrown to the ground and seriously injured. He suffered internal hemorrhaging in his head, four compression fractures of vertebrae, a broken shoulder and two broken ribs. Doctors even feared he might die." [...]That ain't good. But he's doing okay, already out of the hospital:
"Mr. Snell is recovering from his injuries at his home in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania."So that makes him ripe for ridicule. Okay, some questions: what the hell was the old bastard doing "atop his car" in the first place? And how do you "counsel" someone from "atop a car". I would think that "counselling" someone about a matter so private and personal would require some quiet one-on-one. If this nitwit was doing it from "atop a car", he must have been shouting, probably into a bullhorn, a situation not really conducive to personal "counselling". So it wasn't "counselling" -- he was up there on his car blathering a generic anti-abortion message to all and sundry. Now it all becomes clearer...
Yes, I can see it all now... as patients try to make their way into the clinic, the old fetus fetishizing blowhard stands "atop" his car shouting into a bullhorn about BABY MURDERERS and SLUTS, ETERNAL DAMNATION and HELLFIRE... maybe pointing to one patient in particular and harassing her individually, at which point her partner takes exception and knocks the stunned prick on his ass. Well, too bad, so friggin' sad! Anyone who's duhhhhhmb enough to build a platform for the top of his car so he can stand up there and pontificate from on high is asking for trouble. What if the brakes failed? (Better yet, what if someone got in and started the car, popped the clutch and took it from 0 to 60 in a few seconds? Woooo!)
Yeah, the guy who pushed him was wrong (bad!) and the receptionist who said he "got what he deserved" was wrong (bad!), but if the fetus fetishists want to get In Your Face about things, they have to expect the occasional In Your Face response -- call it "pushback", (heh). Besides, pro-choicers would have to push over a lot more of these nitwits before claiming anywhere near the number of casualties they've racked up.
