Yep, just like me. That's why I plan to someday stake out a hospital and find some nice lady like Tilt, there, to insult when she's most vulnerable.
As I said, just because it's a right, doesn't mean it's the right thing to do.
Enjoy yourselves. If there is a God, I believe you will be surprised by Her reaction to you when you get to the ol' Pearly Gates.
Why would someone seeking an abortion be "most vulnerable?" When I listen to liberals speak on abortion, I only hear rainbows and skittle shatting unicorns....everything is normal and just and right. Just another day in the abortion-filled neighborhood called Liberal Utopia.
And now you're telling us that the person seeking abortion is at her "most vulnerable?"
What gives? Are you now changing the liberal perspective on abortion to be that of a not-so-good scenario? Are you folks hypocrites? Sure sounds like it.
You know, I wonder if this ruling will end up having unintended consequences down the road when someone doesn't feel that it is acceptable for them to be corralled into "Free Speech Zones" when important political events are taking place or high-ranking politicians are in town.
Those who protest outside of these clinics are no better than the westboro thugs. They are harassing and interfering with a woman's right to a LEGAL procedure. They are thugs.
The solution is very simple for those who don't believe in abortion - don't get one. That's why it's called choice.
I believe life begins at viable birth and not before and I have a right to my beliefs just as the lifer's do theirs.
This is one of the millions of anti-abortion threads on this forum and I continually ask the lifers; what right do they have to dictate my healthcare choices that should be between me and my healthcare provider? The lifers never answer - they just bloviate BS.
People have the right to make themselves look as disgusting as they want to. It's why WBC continues to exist.
I may not like it, and will exersize -my- freedom of speech voicing my digust at such animals, but they have a right to protest and look like complete idiots.
I agree, and I fully support their first amendment rights, outside of the cemetery. Line up on the walls of it if you want and yell whatever, but within the gates, I feel you deserve the same protections as you do at abortion clinics. They can't come inside and harass you.
But I was asking the other poster who said they "fully" support the right to free speech. I'm curious as to their concerns in this aspect.
In my mind, this is the same situation with different circumstances.
As disgusting and distasteful as these wacko anti-abortion protesters are...I have to agree. If we infringe on their free speach rights we have no justification not to infringe on other free speach issues we don't agree with. If a gay group or pro-abortion group wants to protest outside a church, they have exactly the same rights and freedoms. Once inside it's private property and they have no such right. So be it. In both cases you would hope that people would have more class than to protest under such circumstances, but history has proven otherwise.
You can protest something even if it's legal. The point is to change public law and policy -that's usually why people protest. Most health care decisions do not involve killing a human fetus.

We'll see what happens. They might have the right to protest, and correct me if I'm wrong, but they can't protest on private property. They also don't have the right to intimidate or harass people.
Either way, it's a ruling in favor of do-nothing losers who make no contributions to society. They have no better way to spend their time than making life difficult for others. They're bottom-feeders and a drag on this country and on freedom.
