From the outside of the building, where over 300 of the clinic’s supporters were gathered, compared to perhaps 30-50 of the anti-abortion protesters, it all looked just peachy. Once inside, […]
We’ve had quite a few great diaries in the last couple of days discussing the March for Peace that was held on September the 15th. I’m not sure who posted the first, although I know that the drunken live blogging episode from the patio of the Holiday Inn had to be one of them. […]
