Feminist fundamentalism is already the law of the land in many parts of Canada. Toronto police are prohibited from pursuing criminal charges whenever a parent complains that their toddler’s feminist teacher was nude in class for a “protest”. However, police and mall rent-a-cops are given authority to use physical violence against pick up artists who are in receipt of “sexual harassment” complaints for approaching female shoppers.

Maybe because a "pickup artist" (retch) mowed down and killed a dozen people with his van a few years ago.

Retch to you too. You'd best not comment on issues about which you know so little that you haven't even figured out the terminology.

But aside from the fact that no "pickup artist" mowed down people in a van, what do you think the example would prove logically? Valerie Solanas, famed feminist author of the SCUM Manifesto, which advised women to kill men, actually did try to murder a number of men, including Andy Warhol; she ended up permanently injuring him. By your logic, then, all feminists who speak in dehumanizing ways about men should be treated as would-murderers because this one was. And by the way, Solanas isn't the only woman who has advocated killing men or celebrated the killing or maiming of men.
