The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

Who was assaulting his 11 year old daughter.

A bit of distortion there:

For almost two decades, according to the Philadelphia Inquirer, Houck had driven two hours from his home to protest and pray the rosary outside a Planned Parenthood in Philadelphia, often remaining there for hours at a time. (The CEO of Planned Parenthood of Southeastern Pennsylvania alleged that Houck carried a “large knife” on his belt and harassed, insulted, and even threatened patients.)

A video from October 2021 shows Houck twice shoving a man who was later identified as Bruce Love. Houck approached Love with pamphlets as the volunteer was trying to protect women who were leaving the clinic. The two men got into a heated exchange and Houck shoved Love, causing him to fall. (Love was not seriously injured.) Houck has maintained that he was acting in defense of his 12-year-old son, who was accompanying him, and has claimed that Love cursed and shouted abusive comments at them both.
