This idea is not new, especially in defense of choice. I supported abortion rights in South Dakota by pledging a donation toward an abortion fund for every anti-choice protester during a legislative fight two years ago.

It's effective because it turns the intimidation tactics of the reactionaries against them. Facing a teabagger rally in your hometown?

Make sure they know how much money each and every one of them is causing to be contributed to causes they despise.
