Last week someone threw a Molotov cocktail into the parking lot of a Nebraska Planned Parenthood clinic. According to Action 3 News Omaha:
Lincoln police say someone attempted to throw a Molotov cocktail at the local Planned Parenthood clinic, but missed.
Instead, police say, the makeshift explosive fell just short of the building and burned pavement in the parking lot. It was reported about 11:20 p.m. Thursday.
The incident is under investigation. Police aren’t sure whether it’s linked to a recent string of crimes involving Molotov cocktails.

How New Anti-Abortion Measures Threaten ALL Pregnant Women – 
We all know the old feminist adage, “If men were the ones to get pregnant, choice wouldn’t be such an issue.” At least that’s the way I’ve seen it since I was 12 and realized I was a true feminist (after listening to a Backstreet Boys song and getting angry because it contained a sexist message).
