Do any of you understand HIPPA? This person was on a stretcher on a public sidewalk with 2 EMTs, not in an exam room with a physician talking about her medical history.
Myopic doesn't begin to encapsulate your explanation of HIPPA.

If that had been a member of YOUR family being filmed while being loaded into an ambulance, and the video then posted on the internet with a totally false accounting of WHY that family member was being transported by emergency medical personnel, are you really going to tell us that that would have been A-OK with you?
There's a huge difference being ok with something and turning into a ghetto freak and physically attacking some stranger on the street are very different things. I'm in support of a woman's right to choose an abortion, especially in cases where that aborted child will likely be raised to be a lifelong victim and vote Democrat till they die in public housing and on welfare. Judging by that video it's pretty likely that's the kind of people we're dealing with here so I would rather the old lady just let them do what they want to do. With that being said, she didn't break any laws.
We don't know the identity of the woman patient, we probably will never know her identity.
Even demographics are protected under HIPPA, to say nothing of procedures. Or are you acknowledging that it is one big LIE that this woman is identified as being taken to the hospital after a "botched abortion"?

What a disgusting thing to say.
I can only imagine the outrage if someone here said they were all in favor of aborting only potential future republicans.
Hey! All you anti-choice terrorists! Look who's on your side!

I never said I only wanted to see Democrats aborted, I just said that I support a woman's right to choose an abortion and if those abortions just happen to eliminate low information voters then great.

I was hoping you would at least try to prove me wrong but sadly that didn't happen.
You didn't even catch the fact that I purposely spelled it HIPPA instead of HIPAA yet you seem to want to claim that you know a great deal about it.
There is nothing whatsoever in the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability act of 1996 that would cover what took place in that video. There are however quite a few basic laws that cover physical attack.

Not really. Could be, could not be. Just like a woman being forced into a car by 2 men. They may have rape on their minds or they just may be relatives trying to make her go to the hospital before she kills herself.

Even if it's not okay, there is no excuse for violence! How many times do we have to say this?

And how many times do we have to say that most of us aren't condoning violence? Of any kind?
Jesus!
D'oh!
But what would YOU do if that had been YOUR loved one being loaded into that ambulance and you have some idiot standing there, filming it, and adding a narrative to what was happening?
And how would YOU feel later if you were to find out the video was posted all over the internet and it was part of some political agenda and there were claims being made about WHY your loved one was being transported?
Maybe, just maybe, you would have reacted in the same way.
Or would you have approached the terrorist and had some sort of conversation with him/her, asking them to please refrain from filming your loved one?
And if they had refused?
