No humane-thinking human being wants a Planned Parenthood aborcentration camp (aka "clinic") in his or her neighborhood.
Thus protesters have alerted the City of Portland, etc., with salutary results thus far.

Honor Killing in Ga. Reveals Weakness of Political Correctness
By Rick Pearcey
There's been an honor killing in Clayton County, Ga., just south of Atlanta. A Pakistani immigrant strangled his daughter to death. She, according to police, was planning to divorce the husband imposed upon her by an arranged marriage.
Rather than examine the link between Islam and parents killing daughters who question arranged marriages, "learned analysts search for clues in South Asian cultural habits and the practices of European royalty," writes Robert Spencer.
"The price of this politically correct refusal to confront the ugly realities of the Islamic link to honor killing will be, quite simply, more honor killings," Spencer warns.
But not in South Asia, in the south of Atlanta.
In university, from Hollywood, on newscasts, and in corporate cultures, Americans are instructed and goaded to embrace secularism, cultural relativism, and "diversity is our strength."
The upshot is not just wasted money, foolish schooling, dumbed-down adults, rootlessness, and social apathy in the face of evil.
People are dying. "These young women are the ulitmate victims of political correctness," Spencer concludes.
Honor killings help reveal the inhumanity and weakness of political correctness.
