If that were the actual headline, I betcha this story would be getting a lot more coverage. The real headline and story: “Planned Parenthood Supporter Throws Molotov Cocktail at Pro-Life Prayer Group Outside Abortion Clinic.”
While local media has been pretty straight up on the issue, MSM is underway to try to obscure the intent of the woman who threw a molotov cocktail outside of a Planned Parenthood in Austin, Texas, many reporting it simply as an attack at a Planned Parenthood, leaving the impression it is an anti-abortion protester.
The woman also apparently testified in support of abortion mills during Wendy Davis’s filibuster. Ain’t that special?
Where in the MSM is it being reported as something else? Or, where is the evidence that they’re going to attempt to obscure the truth?
In the “Feminism Becomes Infantile” thread, there is a point made in the original NY Times article that should not be overlooked:
The “member of the university” whom El Rhazoui “condescendingly attacked” is, of course, the Muslim student who had NOT received death threats, but whose feelings were hurt because other people might notice that she’s a co-religionist of the Charlie Hebdo gunmen.
Shame on the Times for burying this at the end of the story, but kudos to the editors for sticking it in anyway. Why is it so hard to understand that people whose business is to offer up Apologia for Jihadists will also benefit from these criticism-free Safe Spaces?
Democrat Elanor Holmes Norton and the “Worst Parking Job Ever”

Cray Cray @1: better question: where is it being REPORTED in the so-called “mainstream” media at all? It’s called a sin of omission, in case you were wondering. #idiot.
Has #boycottdolcegabana been discussed yet? I just found out about it like 15 minutes ago, after picking up The Blade for Rapunzel the Rat’s cage. (Shredded, it’s both soft and absorbent.)
It seems the openly gay Italian designers — and former lovers — had the rudeness to publicly deprecate same-sex parenting as less desirable than a father and a mother. And, I might add as an ex-Catholic boy, good on them for being particularly disdainful of creating test-tube babies with the involvement of a third-party donor. (I’ll defend gay adoptions of already-born babies, but not gametes-for-sale and wombs-for-rent.)
Anyway, tweets flew, and poor Sir Elton John — among others — is not at all poplectic, and has vowed never to wear D&G again.

Clearly there should be a law requiring pro-abortion protesters to stay at least 100 feet away from the targets.

That was clearly just another drag queen.
