Clearly, this has magically been around for 65 years.

I am reminded of a pro-choice rally I attended a while back, where some anti-choicers had chalked the sidewalks with charming stuff like "God hates baby-killers." The normal stuff.

Except.

Except the person who chalked this:

"ABORTION IS FOR EMO KIDS."

Stupid emo kids, what with their wrist cuffs and Fall out Boy and abortions!

I think this post illustrates how even a movement consisting of one person can gain media attention if they choose a spot right outside the offices of a newspaper to get their message out.

If by, "right outside the offices" you mean, "a block and a-half north".

Just sayin' FB...

Protestors, both right-wing and left-wing, are the complete jackasses of society. They deserve to be ignored, as they often are.

Comte: Yep, that's exactly what I meant.

Fuck you non-activists. What right do you have to call yourself citizens? You don't participate in anything other than generating money and buying consumer goods for yourselves. If you don't perform your public duty, then you're not really a part of democratic government, so fuck off.
