Quote of the Day

[Content Note: Anti-choice terrorism; victim-blaming.]

"These facts and overall mission of the abortion industry would easily send anyone over the hill who wasn't rational. ...Violence is never the answer, but we must start pointing out who is the real culprit. The true instigator of this violence and all violence at any Planned Parenthood facility is Planned Parenthood themselves. Violence begets violence. So Planned Parenthood: YOU STOP THE VIOLENCE INSIDE YOUR WALLS."—Adams County Colorado Republican state representative JoAnn Windholz, just fucking going there and full-tilt blaming Planned Parenthood staff and patients for the deadly act of anti-choice terrorism carried out by Robert Dear.

I don't even have words, besides these: FUCK OFF.

And these: "Let's Get This Straight." True then; true now.
