Wow - those videos almost made me cry. No one should talk to their elders like that. I was born and raised to RESPECT MY ELDERS and you damn well better beleive that I would never say stuff like that to an older person. This woman does not seem to understand that, does she? If that was my grandpa, escorting ME into the clinic, I would have turned around and smacked her. I don't care if she is, technically, an "elder." She acts like a 13 year-old. I don't care if it would be assault or not, but NOBDOY says that to MY grandpa.

By the way, do you mind if I share the videos with some of my pro choice friends? I'd just tell them that yr grandpa escorted you to the clinic, but wouldn't link this post, yr journal, or anything of the sorts. I will just link the videos and give some background info. If you don't want me to, thats a-ok.

I'm happy that you are OK. You seem to be in good spirits. I am also very impressed with your family. THAT'S love, right there, if your grandpa will bring you to the clinic and protect you from the protestors..that's family values. Having an unwanted child against your choice is not, in any way, considered "family values."

That's how I felt. I'm still being eaten alive with the anger that that horrible woman even felt entitled to SPEAK to my grandfather, and I'm seeing about some anger management therapy before I give myself an ulcer or hurt someone. :/

And sure, share anything. I made everything public for a reason, and I'll probably be opening up a few more abortion-related journal entries as well. Most of the time my journal is totally closed because I make enemies in dot_pet_snark and stupidpetowners, but this is bigger than them.
