Neutral Point of View
I noticed the article on the anti-abortion movement had a section on violent attacks by activists, but this article does not, even though violence has been committed by abortion rights activists as well. Would it make sense to include that for the sake of neutrality? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Aimasterclmaster (talk • contribs) 02:53, 12 June 2022 (UTC)
- No, per WP:FALSEBALANCE. See the recent discussion of this point at Talk:United States anti-abortion movement. NightHeron (talk) 08:53, 12 June 2022 (UTC)
- So I understand that violence from anti-abortion activists has been common historically, and portraying it as equivalent would create a false balance, that being said, I feel it is still misleading to not mention violence from abortion rights activists at all. Obviously we should mention that it's been less common that from the other side, but would not it make sense to have even just a brief paragraph about it?

- Please see the discussion that just took place at Talk:United States anti-abortion movement. Among other things pointed out in that discussion, in order to include that material it would have to be something that's covered extensively (meaning not just news of the day) in reliable secondary sources.
