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.

This board hates pro-lifers with a fiery passion.

Yes, some of them do seem to be arsonists. This is at least the second time the Kalamazoo clinic has been torched, as I remember it being set on fire in the 1980s.

GRAND RAPIDS, MICHIGAN — U.S. Attorney Mark Totten announced that his office filed a criminal complaint today charging Joshua Brereton with setting fire to a Planned Parenthood building in Kalamazoo, Michigan. Brereton, age 25, is a resident of Paw Paw, Michigan.

On July 31, 2022, law enforcement received a report of a fire in progress at the Planned Parenthood in Kalamazoo. Subsequent investigation, including review of video surveillance from the fire scene, revealed that, at approximately 4:00 p.m., a man now identified as Brereton breached the fence surrounding the building, used a combustible fuel to ignite the exterior bushes of the building, lit a fireplace starter log, and then threw the burning log onto the roof of the building, ultimately starting two separate fires. After the fires started, Brereton fled the scene.

This pro-lifer preferred a different sort of fire.

The suspect in a deadly gun attack on a Colorado family planning clinic said "no more baby parts" during his arrest, US media report.

Witnesses say Robert Lewis Dear was motivated by opposition to abortion, according to Planned Parenthood, which runs the clinic in Colorado Springs.

Two civilians and a police officer died and nine other people were injured.

Funny how they have so much regard for people, while they are in the womb, and so little regard for people, after they are born.
