Planned Parenthood leader says to end violence
This is what Dear is referring to.
“Right now, we know people are looking to Planned Parenthood to continue being that voice that asks for an end to the rhetoric and to really stand strong in the face of what’s going on and we want people to know”. But the abortions Planned Parenthood does perform do not use federal funding.

Planned Parenthood claimed to offer 11 million “services” in America in its 2009-2010 Annual Report.
Keep in mind, in 1999 Trump was “very pro-choice”, a stance he rationalized this year to the Hollywood Reporter: “Don’t forget, when I was first asked, I was a real estate developer, and that was not a question that people went around asking you”. Republican Representative Adam Kinzinger did an interview with CNN attacking Planned Parenthood while the domestic terrorist who took the lives of three innocent people was still inside the facility.
Windholz, a real-life state legislator, made the classic no-excuse-but argument, in which she writes, in a statement sent to Colorado Independent reporter Marianne Goodland, that “Violence is never the answer, but…”
Dear is being held without bond. Just pink signs with a clear message and calm conversations following the chaos that happened in Colorado Springs.
