      Could you imagine standing there as they lock lips, faces contorting in disgust as they trample upon the malefic beliefs that brought them there? Witnessing the little death as their gold star is forever taken from them. Dropping the fake belly on the ground and sprinting away as jeers and slurs fly from behind you as you avoid being bludgeoned by aggrieved zealots

        Abortion is done (at least around here) before week 12. At that point it’s barely visible over clothing, specially if the mother isn’t the smallest to begin with. So a bit too big hoodie is well enough, no need for fake belly.

        They aren’t going to kiss. They’re going to scream in your face, cry giant crocodile tears, wave a big placard with a crucified puppy on it, and call you a Satanist.

          My friend actually was a satanist with many stories exactly like that. Anti-abortion counter-protests have my absolute favorite people. Most of the anti-abortion folks just scoffed, but some literature was offered, 0 opinions were swayed, 0 boykissers were induced, and hundreds of women felt safer entering clinics with dozens to hundreds of people ready to throw down on their behalf.

          I’d prefer that people be given their privacy, but physical safety comes first. Especially in this era of social erosion
