Flying Fetus Fetishist!

D'oh! Someone finally had enough bullshit from the fetus fetishists:

"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.

Austin clinic bomber arrested

Well, that didn't take long. But when you buy all the materials for your boom at the local Walmart on your credit card the very day before you plant the thing, the arm of the law doesn't have to be particularly long to catch up with your ass:

"Paul Ross Evans, 27, is charged with using a weapon of mass destruction, manufacturing explosive material and limiting access to clinic entrances.

Officials will not say if Evans is affiliated with an anti-abortion group. He does have a criminal background."

Well okay, maybe he's not an anti-choice nutjob. Maybe he's just got an axe to grind with doctors who perform pap tests. Sure, that's gotta be it.

Bomb found at women's clinic

Bread n Roses caught this article about an "explosive device" found yesterday at a women's clinic in Austin Texas. The discovery has prompted a national alert by abortion providers:

"Austin Police say the substance found in a suspicious package left at an abortion clinic was "consistent with an explosive device." The device has prompted a nationwide alert from the National Abortion Federation."

Well well. Another bomb left at another women's clinic that just happens to perform, among other services, abortions. Ya think...? Typically, anti-choicers have been quick to weasel away from their lunatic fringe, "denouncing" the act of violence. In reality, they all bear at least some of the responsibility for these incidents with their continued use of gory photography and outrageous hyperbole like "Partial-Birth Infanticide" and "Abortion is terrorism". Such tactics can only serve to get their whackjob element all fired up, and they know it.

Oh, but wait; they say "We don't know if this was pro-lifers!" Uh, let's see... abortion clinic? Bomb? No, of course not. "Pro-lifers" wouldn't do anything like that. Sure, it was probably al-friggin-qaeda. Nitwits!
