> In this case, the relevant fact is pro-abortion protestors have a habit of firebombing things. Which is ridiculous, given that there have been two fire bombings claimed by pro-choice groups since 2010, one in NY and another in WI, vs. eighteen committed by anti-abortion groups. That, and the fact that anti-abortion violence is fairly common in the US, compared to pro-choice violence [0] [0] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anti-abortion_violence https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anti-abortion_violence

  Can we have another, unbiased source please. That one is state-sponsored and doesn't provide a credible source.

      The Vatican is a state.

        Does the Vatican sponsor them just because they're Catholic? It looks like they're a purely US-based organization.

    That's not what "state sponsored" means. (I mean, yes, technically the Vatican is a state. It's still ridiculous to label everything Catholic as "state sponsored".)

  While not insignificant overall, they are a drop in the bucket compared to violence against pro-choice. This is also a report on "vandalism", and I think we could all agree that aggravated battery and murder, are worse crimes, of which none has been committed by pro-choice groups.

    Both sides seem to say the other side only encounters a drop in the bucket. Can you provide some data or source like the other guy did?

      I did already [0]. It is not an unknown fact that right-wing and religious violence are a way bigger issue than any other form of domestic terrorism in the US. It has been like this for several decades now. [0] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anti-abortion_violence https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anti-abortion_violence
