Why should this entail intense and emotional work?
Most people who work in the medical field are hard working people dedicated to their patient's well being.
Hmm, I wonder what she could have left out...
Every single group has helped destroy this nation. The common denominator is the control of people, especially children even controlling who lives. There is absolutely no reason for anyone in government to unionize.I wonder if the guards of Auschwitz ever thought of unionizing. Planned Murderhood needs to self abort.
Protest at Colorado PP are mostly at the main administration building. The smaller clinics are usually not protested. The protest at the main building are multi-person with pictures.
