Dear Colleague,
Today we report on the threat of violence upon pro-lifers who plan to counter-demonstrate at the pro-abortion march slated for this Sunday in Washington DC. If pro-lifers are attacked, rest assured the mainstream media will blame the pro-lifers. We will be there and will report back to you.
Spread the word.
Yours sincerely,

Pro-Abortion Protesters Pledge to Attack Pro-Lifers at March
At least one pro-abortion group has threatened to assault pro-life counter-protestors during the pro-abortion "March for Women's Lives" next Sunday in Washington DC. The first of its kind since 1992, the March is being described by the National Organization for Women (NOW) as "the most significant and massive abortion rights march in over a decade."
In response to pro-life groups that have announced counter-protests, pro-abortion demonstrators are encouraging destructive and confrontational tactics. In an alert sent out to its supporters, a group calling itself the Radical Cheerleaders of DC said that pro-lifers will be present at the March, and that engaging them in debate is useless "because they are irrational and will not listen to you," so one way to handle them is to destroy their property, because "a thick layer of paint could really complement a bloody fetus picture."
Pro-life demonstrators and organizations plan to congregate along the sidewalks of the March route. They will gather according to specific groupings such as parents with small children and infants, women who have had abortions, college students, pro-abortion converts, and the clergy. This has angered pro-abortion organizers.
The NOW website explains that the first amendment grants pro-lifers "the right to hold a counter-protest, but it does not grant them the right to interfere with our demonstration. Washington D.C. police are already negotiating with the reproductive rights opponents to determine a specific site for their counter-protest that will minimize the possibility of confrontation."
The Radical Cheerleaders calls upon "feminists, radical cheerleaders, anti-authoritarians, [and] anarchists" to "rise up against a tyrannical government which threatens to penetrate women's bodies with its laws." The group also calls upon the radical community to move beyond the current pro-choice movement, which it claims has not done enough for women. Spokesmen say the group plans on "showing the government, as well as the pro-choice movement, that the radical community is as committed to the issue of women's choice as it is to anything else." In January, the group held a "guerilla workshop" to practice organized resistance for the march as well as other events.
Further fueling fears of violence, in order to swell their numbers, March sponsors have invited the participation of anti-globalization groups who will already be in Washington DC to protest the International Monetary Fund and the World Bank. Massive violence has followed wherever the anti-globalists gather, including in Genoa, Italy, where anti-globalists rioted and one demonstrator was killed. According to the Washington Post, one of these groups, Mobilization for Global Justice, which organized the 2000 protests that "led to mass arrests and disrupted parts of downtown," plans on "having a contingent at the women's march."

Yeah, I'm driving down from Connecticut (probably solo) and looking to hook up with some people in DC, just so I'm with some people that I know (even if I've just met them).
Anyone have any ideas?
Radical Cheerleaders.
You got it. If anyone doubted that this movement is satanic.
Watch for scissors to the back of the head.
Another words NOW will have about 20 people there and they are desperate to get more people for the leftist media cameras.
