When I saw a tweet come up that mentioned Planned Parenthood, my heart immediately sank and I assumed the worst: that yet another clinic had been attacked (yes, I am a hardened woman, AND ALSO that shit is depressingly common).

And then, my heart soared.

Here’s @pdxalerts:

Looks like an antiabortion protest at the Planned Parenthood on NE MLK may be short one sign today. And while I’m not about to condone petty thievery (although I’m definitely condoning abortion rights, because that’s HOW I LIVE MY LIFE), consider this a little shot of levity in a week of fractious political debate. Forget Hillary and Bernie if only for a moment, and just think of this: Somewhere out there, an anti-choice protester is missing their sanctimonious, woman-infantilizing sign.

And every time that happens? A baby feminist gets her wings*.

*This is definitely hyperbole.

  1. The thief will probably not get the death penalty, but if they try and talk back to the arresting officers, they’ll probably end up full of about a hundred rounds from half a dozen 9mm Glocks.

  4. I’m all for abortion. Seriously. I hate babies. I hate adults too. Get rid of as many of us as possible. That’s what I say. We’re a plague. But come on, if it’s our legal right and choice to kill our children in the womb, then I want to be able to kill anyone, anytime I feel like it. Seems fair to me. If I can kill my kid, why can’t I kill my enemies? Fuck your double standards.

  5. #4 If you were actually “pro-life”, you’d be against war and the death penalty and the exploitation of workers AND poor-bashing, too. It’s not “pro-life”, just to be against abortion.

    if nothing else, you’d support making contraception as easy and cheap to get as possible, because no one has any right to expect other people to only have sex when they want to get pregnant.
