Four police officers and an unknown number of civilians have been hurt in an "active shooter" incident in the US city of Colorado Springs, police say.

Officers were exchanging fire with a gunman inside a Planned Parenthood clinic, police Lt Catherine Buckley said.

It was unclear if hostages had been taken, she said.

The city's Penrose hospital said it had received six patients, but did not say whether they were civilians or police.

The situation was still active and roads were closed, the city's police said in a tweet.

"We do not have the shooter at this point but we do have all of our resources brought to bear," Lt Buckley told local TV.

    The so-called context you speak of, suggests that a man should "manage" his affairs, along with his women-folk. That idea of "managing" his women comes straight out of the patriarchal societies that feminism denounces. You can't have it both ways here. Either women have the right to determine if/when they will bear children, or, men have a responsibility to "manage" the women in their lives. Make up your mind, and run with it.

    What he said and what you read are two very different things. Settle down, dude.
