You'll have your choice of protests Saturday against out-of-town men in suits marching down Comm. Ave. to demand we stop all the abortin'

A group of out-of-state Catholic men, possibly joined by some local Nazis, have decided to try to shove their will down our throats in a march Saturday morning from the Planned Parenthood clinic at Packards Corner down to the Common, where they will keen and wail and demand us godless heathens just stop all this nonsense immediately.

The Men's March to Abolish Abortion reserved a block of rooms at the Parker House and don't worry, they've arranged for some intercessionary praying by the womenfolk at St. Clement Eucharistic Shrine on Boylston Street in the Fenway.

But the good news: Some of the more serious local groups, like Boston DSA and the Mass. Feminist Struggle Committee, are organizing a counter-protest, of course, starting at 11 a.m. at Charlesgate Park, sort of a chokepoint on the path down Comm. Ave. to the Common.

Separately, there will be clowns - with face paint and big shoes and stuff. Clown March Boston is promising to go all out to honk at and razz and make funny faces at the out-of-town X-geners who think they know better than women.

Like always, we’re going to upstage them with a parade of clown costumes and circus music, and we could use your help. If you want to join the band, march alongside it, or otherwise get involved, get in touch.

The Men’s March is not welcome here, and we will not allow their narrative to go uncontested.

Yet Still The Same.

It is going to be as funny as hell when the DSAer's see their parents marching to the Common.

You don't get to choose your parents, and a lot of people's parents are assholes.

If you can't see that, then you are lost.

The spirit of antisemitism. Nazi. DSA. Progressive Caucus. &c…&c…

Signals of appeasement and pandering that must have flowed like a lightning bolt down the Democratic structure on the Monday after 10/7 tempering the good-seeming words from some of our State Representatives, Congressional delegation and civic leaders who “stand with Israel” and “support Israel’s right to defend itself,” which ultimately fell short of capturing the morality and reality of the moment as what they didn’t say stood out in silent solidarity with those who believe Jews “had it coming” for 10/7 and should be wiped into the sea.

I beg you to stop this nonsense. When you call everything anti-semitism, you devalue the term. The end result is you get idiots on the internet like yourself saying the progressive caucus and the KKK are the same thing.

As a jewish person myself, I can tell the difference between the people who want me dead and the people, like BERNIE F*ING SANDERS WHO IS JEWISH who want Israel to stop bombing civilians. The progressive caucus has plenty of jewish members. Frelmont, tell me how many neo-nazis are openly jewish?

I'm guessing you're a Christian. We don't need your twisted "allyship."

If we're going to go down the octogenarian president road, that's the guy I want. In fact, that's the guy who people in Iowa and New Hampshire wanted.

The Democratic Party told them no. I'd say that the Democratic Party paid the price if I actually believed that they're upset by a Trump presidency, which they're not.

Are you an end-times Christian?

Why are you calling them Nazis?
You had the upper hand until then, Adam.
Let’s not reduce ourselves to hysterical name calling , pleas. It only gives them ammo

But there's a good chance the local Nazis will join in, like the last time the outatowners did one of these.

Technically you are correct, they are not nazis.

They are Neo-Nazis.

nazi's believed in the superiority of the german fatherland, and these chuckleheads don't.

Your revolution is over, Mr. Lebowski. Condolences. The bums lost. My advice is to do what your parents did; get a job, sir. The bums will always lose. Do you hear me, Lebowski?

The Dude:
Employed?

You don't go out looking for a job dressed like that? On a weekday?

I wanted the pithy subject line and quote I used but you're right- should have went with the actual text.
Apologies to you and the Coen brothers.

Is always relevant to any discussion. But what the fuck does anything have to do with Vietnam, man?!

The Robby Roadsteamer Super Bowl.

I'm still laughing at "Yoda with AIDS." I remember some schmuck in here classing him with me and Ernie Boch, Jr. as "worst local celebrity." You wanna diss me, okay, but don't go calling Robby the worst of anything.

Maybe these Nazis didn't do that enough and are now rudderless with no viable role models.

LOL!

How will they ever even find a parking space? Do they carpool?

Allston tow truck drivers are merciless. An out-of-state plate is like catnip to them.

They cram themselves into UHauls

Gallows humor.

...THIS would be the grand ultimate storrowing.

Please let it happen and please let it be captured on camera.
