Collin County. Reddest county in Texas scene of terrorist attack AGAINST Planned Parenthood
And yes, it IS terrorism.

UPDATE from Star Local News: Officials with Planned Parenthood confirmed that their McKinney clinic was the target of violence sometime last night.

Holly Morgan, director of media relations and communications for Planned Parenthood in Dallas, said their McKinney health center located on Eldorado Parkway was "attacked" between 10 and 11 p.m. Tuesday with an incendiary device.

The person or persons involved in the attack threw a Molotov cocktail, consisting of diesel fuel in a glass bottle with a lit rag, at the building. Morgan said the device did not penetrate the front of the clinic but did cause some serious damage.

"It didn't penetrate the health center office and none of the staff or patients were there, which is great," Morgan said. "It scorched the outside of the door and I believe there was a little scorching to the retail locations on either side of it."

1. "And yes, it IS terrorism." Indeed, it is. I hope they do a thorough investigation
and I hope, against hope, that the media will underscore the terroristic aspect of this, alongside its criminality. One can wish.

4. My daughter was in there Saturday
getting her refill of low cost birth control. I'm not shitting you. This really pisses me off. There are these old religious goons that stand right outside the shopping center with "Abortion is Murder" signs and the dumb fucks are too stupid to realize that they do not perform abortions in this center.

5. Unfortunately the media will not say it's terrorism
unless the perpetrators are Muslim with brown skin.

7. Does Collin County have a burn ban in effect?
With the drought it is not just an attack against Planned Parenthood, it is a direct attack on the entire community.
