So, what do you all think about me doing this.

There are protesters outside of our planned Parenthood building. I myself do not use them but I am thinking of crossing that damn line just to go in and donate to Planned Parenthood. I am feeling in the mood to go against the protesters and hope they say something to me for going in because I have a lot to say to those uneducated ass wipes. Odd thing also is they blame Democrats for being lazy and not work, well I see the same ones everyday so why aren't they working?

because he's been cheating on them for YEARS.

If it's a man, tell him you JUST got knocked up by a Big Black Man, so you just thought you'd stop off and get an abortion before you gas up the car, pick up a six pack and head home.

deplorable attack me. I actually will not try to get into an argument but if they ask me a question I will answer in a more educated way than they are capable and leave them scratching their heads.

Instead, go to a rally with sane people.

Hand out fliers to people that can think, where you will have an influence.

They will like your support and you will have made a difference.

Also, at the location I used to volunteer at, we used to collect the flyers from the protesters and use them either as scratch paper or recycle them. So you could ask for flyers -- say you'd like extras to give to your friends, and then recycle them
